IRB Operation
The Inter-Repeater Backplane (IRB) allows multiple devices to operate as a single logical repeater,
exchanging data and collision status information. Each segment on the LXT98x0 has its own
complete, independent IRB. The backplanes use a combination of digital and analog signals as
shown in
Figure 9 on page 50
.

Collision and
Activity LEDs
Any
The collision and activity LEDs are on a Per Segment
basis. Pulse stretchers are used to extend the on-time
for the LEDs. For every on-cycle of the stretched
LEDs, an off-cycle, with the same period as the on-
cycle, always follows.
The collision LEDs turn on for approximately 120
μ
s
when the LXT98x0 detects a collision on the
segments. During the time that the LED is on, any
additional collisions are ignored by the collision LED
logic.
The activity LEDs turns on for approximately 4 ms
when the LXT98x0 detects any activity on the
segments. During the time that the LED is on, any
additional activity is ignored by the activity LED logic.

1. Refer to
Table 14
: LED Terms, which defines all key terms used in this section.
2. Receive activity is stretched to a 20 ms wide pulse. For every on-cycle of the stretched LEDs, an off-cycle,
with the same period as the on-cycle, always follows.
