COM90C66 transmits information. Every time
the host accesses either the internal RAM,
registers, or external PROM, the nBSLED will
light for 400 mS +/- 20%. The sink capability of
both the nTXLED and nBSLED pins is 10mA,

The node sees receive activity, but is not
seeing the token. Perhaps no other nodes
exist on the the network, or some type of
data corruption exists, or the media driver is
not functioning properly, or the topology is
set up incorrectly, or there is noise on the
network, or a reconfiguration is occurring.
