LCI (LAN Connect Interface) Guidelines
This section contains guidelines on how to implement a PLC (Platform LAN Connect) device on a
system motherboard using LCI. It should not be treated as a specification, and the system designer
must ensure through simulations or other techniques that the system meets the specified timings.
Special care must be given to matching the LAN_CLK traces to those of the other signals, as
shown below. The following are guidelines for the ICH3-S to LAN component interface. The
following signal lines are used on this interface:
•
LAN_CLK
•
LAN_RSTSYNC
•
LAN_RXD[2:0]
•
LAN_TXD[2:0]
This interface supports 82562ET/82562EM components. Signal lines LAN_CLK,
LAN_RSTSYNC, LAN_RXD[0], and LAN_TXD[0] are shared by all components.
9.7.1.1
Bus Topology
The LAN Connect Interface must be configured in direct point-to-point connection between the
ICH3-S and the LAN component topology. (Refer to
Figure 9-15. Point-to-Point Interconnect Guideline
