16、EC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with
17、particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have
18、established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint t
19、echnical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. IS
20、O and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Annex A provides an Electrical Interface and Annex B defines formats for two managed identifiers. 8 Interface Signal Description The MAC-PHY signal interface is depicted in Figure 1.
34、It consists of the Data Interface including an 8-bit data bus, the Control Interface, the CCA Interface and the Management Interface. The Data Interface, which is used to transfer data to and from the MAC, operates differently depending on the state of the PHY. The Control Interface is used by the M
35、AC to control the operating state of the PHY and by the PHY to indicate TX/RX status to the MAC. The CCA Interface is used for Clear Channel Assessment status indication. The Management Interface is used to access the PHY registers. PHY MAC CCA_STATUS CCA InterfaceSERIAL_DATA Management Interface PC

38、HY specific interval PHYResetTime to clear all PHY variables and reset the PHY to its initial state. The PHY writes STANDBY to PMMODE and transitions to STANDBY state after !PHY_RESET is de-asserted and reset operations have completed. !PHY_RESET is asynchronous to PCLK. !PHY_RESET is ACTIVE LOW. TX
39、_EN 1 MAC to PHY TX_EN is used to place the PHY in TRANSMIT State. Its secondary use (with RX_EN) is to transition from SLEEP to STANDBY when the PHY clock source has been stopped for power saving. TX_EN is synchronous to PCLK except in SLEEP state. TX_EN is ACTIVE HIGH. RX_EN 1 MAC to PHY RX_EN is
40、used to place the PHY in RECEIVE State. Its secondary use (with TX_EN) is to transition from SLEEP to STANDBY when the PHY clock source has been stopped for power saving. RX_EN is synchronous to PCLK except in SLEEP state. RX_EN is ACTIVE HIGH. PHY_ACTIVE 1 PHY to MAC PHY_ACTIVE is used by the PHY t

In TRANSMIT state, the rising edge of PHY_ACTIVE indicates the start of frame at the local antenna and the falling edge indicates that the entire frame has been transmitted over the air. In RECEIVE state, the rising edge of
42、 this signal indicates that the start of the preamble has been detected (SyncDelay + the preceding synchronization fields earlier) and the falling edge indicates that the entire frame has been received (PHYActiveDelay earlier) at the local antenna. PHY_ACTIVE is also used in the special cases of Exi
43、t from SLEEP and RESET. PHY_ACTIVE is synchronous to PCLK. PHY_ACTIVE is ACTIVE HIGH. STOPC (optional) 1 MAC to PHY On/Off signal for PCLK in STANDBY state. PCLK is active when STOPC is de-asserted and not active when STOPC is asserted. STOPC is asynchronous to PCLK. STOPC is ACTIVE HIGH. ISO/IEC 26

Interface signals are synchronous to the rising edge of PCLK (see Annex A). The nominal rate of PCLK is 66MHz.
45、DATA_EN 1 PHY to MAC In TRANSMIT state, this signal is used by the PHY to request more data from the MAC. In RECEIVE state, it is used to indicate to the MAC that there is valid data on the DATA7:0 bus. DATA_EN is synchronous to PCLK. DATA_EN is ACTIVE HIGH. DATA7:0 8 Bi-directional DATA7:0 is an 8-
46、bit wide data bus driven by the MAC in TRANSMIT state and by the PHY in all other states including SLEEP. DATA7:0 is synchronous to PCLK whether driven by the PHY or the MAC. DATA7:0 ONE is HIGH. 8.1.3 CCA Interface Table 3 CCA Interface Signals SIGNAL Width (Bits) DIR DESCRIPTION CCA_STATUS 1 PHY t
47、o MAC The PHY returns CCA_STATUS after a CCA request is initiated by the MAC writing to the CCRE register via SERIAL_DATA. CCA_STATUS is synchronous to PCLK. CCA_STATUS is ACTIVE HIGH. 8.1.4 Management Interface Table 4 Management Interface Signals SIGNAL Width (Bits) DIR DESCRIPTION SERIAL_DATA 1 B
48、i-directional The MAC writes control and address bits to SERIAL_DATA to initiate register access. SERIAL_DATA is driven by the MAC for Write operations. It is driven by the MAC for control and address parts of Read operations and by the PHY for the data part of Read operations. SERIAL_DATA is synchr
49、onous to PCLK. SERIAL_DATA ONE is HIGH.

RESET is asynchronous to PCLK (see 11.1.1). SLEEP The radio is off. PCLK is off (see 11.1.2). STANDBY The radio is off. PCLK is on (unless STOPC is asserted). STANDBY is a higher activity state than SLEE. READY Parts of the radio are on.
