ABSTRACT:
An integrated media attachment unit (MAU) operative for interfacing Digital Terminal Equipment (DTE) on a Local Area Network (LAN) using twisted pair media. The twisted pair function as either a DTE MAU or a repeater MAU. A line driver for the twisted pair differential signal provides a ramped response with low jitter while an improved Attachment Unit Interface (AUI) driver uses CMOS technology and provides simplified End-of-Transmission Delimiter (ETD) control. The twisted pair MAU includes a combined override and status indication of link status and an additional feature to allow automatic polarity reversal of differential signal input lines and polarity status signalling.
