Inter-Packet IDLE I 11111 IDLE
First nibble of SSD J 11000 First nibble of SSD, translated to "0101" following /I/ (IDLE),
else RX_ER asserted high
Second nibble of SSD K 10001 Second nibble of SSD, translated to "0101" following /J/, else
RX_ER asserted high
First nibble of ESD T 01101 First nibble of ESD, causes de-assertion of CRS if followed
by /R/, else assertion of RX_ER
Second nibble of ESD R 00111 Second nibble of ESD, causes de-assertion of CRS if
following /T/, else assertion of RX_ER

5.1.3 Scrambler
The purpose of the scrambler is to flatten the power spectrum of the transmitted signal, thus reduce EMI.
The scrambler seed is generated with reference to the PHY address so that multiple PHYs that reside
within the system will not use the same scrambler sequence.
5.1.4 NRZI and MLT-3 Encoding
To comply with the TP-PMD standard for 100Base-TX transmission over CAT-5 unshielded twisted pair
cable, the scrambled data must be NRZI encoded. The serial binary data stream output from the NRZI
encoder is further encoded to MLT-3. MLT-3 is a tri-level code where a change in the logic level
represents a code bit '1' and the logic output remaining at the same level represents a code bit '0'.
