The CTI is connected between the coaxial cable and the Data Terminal Equipment (DTE). In Ethernet applications the transceiver is usually mounted within a dedicated enclosure and is connected to the DTE via a transceiver cable. In Cheapernet applications, the CTI is typically located within the DTE and connects to the DTE through isolation transformers only. The CTI consists of a Receiver, Transmitter, Collision Detector, and a Jabber Timer. The Transmitter connects directly to a 50 ohm coaxial cable where it is used to drive the coax when transmitting. During transmission, a jabber timer is initiated to disable the CTI transmitter in the event of a longer than legal length data packet. Collision Detection circuitry monitors the signals on the coax to determine the presence of colliding packets and signals the DTE in the event of a collision. Compatible with Ethernet II, IEEE 802.3 10Base5 and 10Base2 (Cheapernet) Integrates all transceiver electronics except signal & power isolation * Innovative design minimizes external component count * Jabber timer function integrated on chip * Externally selectable CD Heartbeat allows operation with IEEE 802.3 compatible repeaters * Precision circuitry implements receive mode collision detection * Squelch circuitry at all inputs rejects noise * Designed for rigorous reliability requirements of IEEE 802.3 * Standard Outline 16-pin DIP uses a special leadframe that significantly reduces the operating die temperature (8392 / DP8392CN / DP8392C / DP8392 / ic is the responsibility of Vickie Levine) |
