Description
D1
Yellow
DUPLEX STATUS:
The LED is lit when the PHY is in Full Duplex operation after
the link is established.
D2
Yellow
1000M SPEED AND GOOD LINK LED
: The LED output indicates that the PHY
has established a good link at 1000 Mbps.
In 1000BASE-T mode, the link is established as a result of training, Auto-
Negotiation completed, valid 1000BASE-T link established and reliable reception
of signals transmitted from a remote PHY is received.
D3
Yellow
100M SPEED AND GOOD LINK LED
: The LED output indicates that the PHY
has established a good link at 100 Mbps.
In 100BASE-T mode, the link is established as a result of an input receive
amplitude compliant with TP-PMD specifications which will result in internal
generation of Signal Detect. LINK100_LED will assert after the internal Signal
Detect has remained asserted for a minimum of 500 µs. LINK100_LED will de-
assert immediately following the de-assertion of the internal Signal Detect.
D4
Yellow
10M GOOD LINK LED
: In the standard 5-LED display mode, this LED output
indicates that the PHY has established a good link at 10 Mbps.
D5
Yellow
ACTIVITY LED
: The LED output indicates the occurrence of either idle error or
packet transfer.
