ICS1893CY-10 Rev 1/07
The ICS1893CY-10 has a TP-PMD sublayer that uses adaptive equalization circuitry to compensate for
signal amplitude and phase distortion incurred from the transmission medium. At a data rate of 100 Mbps,
the transmission medium (that is, the cable) introduces significant signal distortion because of
high-frequency attenuation and phase shift. The high-frequency loss occurs primarily because of the cable
skin effect that causes the conductor resistance to rise as the square of the frequency rises.
The ICS1893CY-10 has an adaptive equalizer that accurately compensates for these losses in shielded
twisted-pair (STP) and unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables. The DSP-based adaptive equalizer uses a
technique that compensates for a wide range of cable lengths. The optimizing parameter for the
equalization process is the overall bit error rate of the ICS1893CY-10. This technique closes the loop on the
entire data reception process and provides a very high overall reliability.
The ICS1893CY-10 uses the same Twisted-Pair Transmit pins (TP_TXP and TP_TXN) for both 10Base-T
and 100Base-TX operations. Each twisted-pair transmitter module is a current-driven, differential driver
that can supply either of the following:
•

The ICS1893CY-10 interfaces with the medium through an isolation transformer (sometimes referred to as
a magnetic module). The ICS1893CY-10’s transmitter uses wave-shaping techniques to control the output
signal rise and fall times (thereby eliminating the need for external filters) and interfaces directly to the
isolation transformer.

The ICS1893CY-10 uses the same Twisted-Pair Receive pins (TP_RXP and TP_RXN) for both 10Base-T
and 100Base-TX operations. The internal twisted-pair receiver modules interface with the medium through
an isolation transformer. The 100Base-TX receiver module accepts and processes a differential three-level
100Base-TX (that is, MLT-3 encoded) signal from the isolation transformer. (In contrast, the 10Base-T
receiver module accepts and processes a differential two-level, Manchester- encoded, 10Base-T signal
from the isolation transformer).
