Embodiment
Fig. 1 illustrates the circuit block diagram into the network transmission device of one embodiment of the invention.The network transmission device 100 that present embodiment provided can be applied on the GBIC network (Gigabit Ethernet), but does not limit its scope.Please with reference to Fig. 1, network transmission device 100 comprises chip 110, transformer 120 and power supply adjustment unit 130.
Chip 110 comprises detection and control unit 111, analog circuit 112 and digital circuit.Detection and control unit 111 receive signal RS, and detect the state that receives signal RS or chip 110, and produce the first control signal CS1, the second control signal CS2 and the 3rd control signal CS 3 accordingly.In the present embodiment; Detect and control unit 111 is according to the information that receives network transfer speeds, DC level drift (DC-wander), transmission amplitude (Transmit Amplitude) and length of transmission line (Cable Length) that signal RS has, and produce the first control signal CS1.
In general, network transfer speeds can be divided into 10Mbps, 100Mbps and 1000Mbps in the existing network transmission device 100.Whenever network transfer speeds not simultaneously, the operating voltage of network transmission device 100 also is not quite similar.For example; When network transfer speeds during at 10Mbps, the transmission voltage of network transmission device 100 for example is about 2.5 volts (V), when network transfer speeds during at 100Mbps; The transmission voltage of network transmission device 100 for example is about ± 1 volt (V); When network transfer speeds during at 1000Mbps, the transmission voltage of network transmission device 100 for example is about ± 1 volt (V), and receive voltage and for example be about ± 1 volt (V) and maximum can reach and be about ± 2 volts (V).
In addition, because network transmission device is after receive signal RS, maybe be because the direct current loss of transformer 120, thereby cause and receive the phenomenon that signal RS produces the DC level drift, and then make the direct voltage that receives among the signal RS produce the phenomenon of decay.In the network transmission device 100, performance (Performance) quality that receives the transmission amplitude of signal RS also can be used as the foundation of the adjustment first adjustment voltage RV1.And length of transmission line can be judged through the size that receives signal RS amplitude, that is length of transmission line possibly can reduce amplitude of transmission signal and non-any sacrifice in performance more in short-term.
Therefore; When detecting and control unit 111 receives when receiving signal RS; Just can detect the information that signal RS has the length of network transfer speeds, DC level drift, transmission amplitude and transmission line that receives; To produce the first control signal CS1, as the power supply adjustment unit 130 adjustment voltage V1 that it received, to produce the foundation of the first adjustment voltage RV1.
For instance, when detecting and control unit 111 when detecting network transfer speeds and being 10Mbps, and calculate DC level drift value and detected transmission amplitude and the length of transmission line under this state, and then produce the first control signal CS1_1.When detecting and control unit 111 when detecting network transfer speeds and being 100Mbps, and calculate DC level drift value and detected transmission amplitude and the length of transmission line under this state, and then produce the first control signal CS1_2.When detecting and control unit 111 when detecting network transfer speeds and being 1000Mbps, and calculate DC level drift value and detected transmission amplitude and the length of transmission line under this state, and then produce the first control signal CS1_3.In the present embodiment, when network transfer speeds is 10Mbps, receive the phenomenon that does not have the DC level drift among the signal RS, so DC level drift value is zero.
In addition, detect and control unit 111 is to detect the signal noise ratio that receives signal RS (Signal-to-Noise Rate, information SNR), and produce the second control signal CS2.For instance; When detecting and control unit 111 detects the signal noise ratio that receives signal RS when higher; Then produce the second control signal CS2_1, so that the voltage V1 that it received is turned down, to produce the foundation of the second adjustment voltage RV2_1 as power supply adjustment unit 130.And, then produce the second control signal CS2_2 when detecting and control unit 111 detects the signal noise that receives signal RS when relatively lower, so that as power supply adjustment unit 130 the voltage V1 that it received is heightened, to produce the foundation of the second adjustment voltage RV2_2.In the present embodiment, the second adjustment voltage RV2_1 and RV2_2 can be simulation (Analog) voltage.
In addition, detection and control unit 111 are the states according to chip 110, that is the size of the internal latency of chip 110, and produce the 3rd control signal CS3.For instance; For instance, when detecting and control unit 111 detects the internal latency of chip 110 when big, then produce the 3rd control signal CS3_1; And power supply adjustment unit 130 is heightened the voltage V1 that it received, as the foundation that produces the second adjustment voltage RV3_1.And when detect and internal latency that control unit 111 detects chip 110 hour, then produce the 3rd control signal CS3_2, and power supply adjustment unit 130 is turned down the voltage V1 that it received, as to produce the foundation of the second adjustment voltage RV3_2.In the present embodiment, the 3rd adjustment voltage RV3_1 and RV3_2 can be numeral (Digital) voltage.
In the present embodiment; The mode of the internal latency of detection chip 1105 is in detection and control unit 111, to dispose counter (Counter) A and counter B; Wherein counter A is for example for having the counter of fixed frequency (Fixed Clock); And the frequency of counter B is for example provided by circular type shaker (Ring Oscillator), and the frequency size can change.Therefore, after chip 110 came into operation, counting meter A and B can count simultaneously, and added up the count value that start-stop counter A and B have counted in each cycle.When the count value of counter A count value, represent that then the internal latency of chip 110 is bigger greater than counter B.If the count value of counter A, representes then that the internal latency of chip 110 is less less than the count value of counter B.
Please continue with reference to Fig. 1, transformer 120 has primary side and secondary side, and the primary side of transformer 120 is coupled to detection and control unit 111.Power supply adjustment unit 130 is coupled to and detects and control unit 111 and transformer 120; In order to receive voltage (for example is operating voltage; And be 3.3V) V1; And according to the first control signal CS1, the second control signal CS2 and the 3rd control signal CS3; And produce the first adjustment voltage RV1, the second adjustment voltage RV2 and the 3rd adjustment voltage RV3, and the first adjustment voltage RV1, the second adjustment voltage RV2 and the 3rd adjustment voltage RV3 are sent to centre cap (Center Tap), the analog circuit 112 and digital circuit 113 of the primary side of transformer 120 respectively.
For instance, power supply adjustment unit 130 foundations transmission speed are at that time produced the first control signal CS1 by 10Mbps, 100Mbps or 1000Mbps, produce the centre cap that the first adjustment voltage RV1 is connected to the primary side of transformer 120 again.So, let the centre tapped voltage of primary side of voltage device 120 keep minimum and can keep the normal operation of network transmission device.By this, can reduce the power consumption of network transmission device effectively.
Below; To lift an example explains how at heterogeneous networks transmission speed (10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1000Mbps); And, select the centre tapped minimum voltage Vct of the primary side of transformer 120 according to network transfer speeds, transmission voltage, length of transmission line and DC level drift.
When network transfer speeds was 10Mbps, the account form of minimum voltage Vct was " the minimum operating voltage of Vct-transmission voltage/2 >=chip internal ".Suppose that transmission voltage is 2.5V, and the minimum operating voltage in the inside of transformer 120 is 0.6V.Therefore, Vct-2.5/2 >=0.6, then Vct >=1.85V.
When network transfer speeds was 100Mbps, the account form of minimum voltage Vct was " a Vct-transmission voltage/2-DC level drift/minimum operating voltage of 2 >=chip internal ".Suppose that transmission voltage is 1V, and the minimum operating voltage in the inside of transformer 120 is 0.6V.Therefore, Vct-1/2-DC level drift/2 >=0.6, then Vct >=1.1+ DC level drift/2.In this hypothesis DC level drift value<0.8, therefore, Vct=1.1~1.5V.
When network transfer speeds was 1000Mbps, the account form of minimum voltage Vct was " Vct-transmission voltage/2-receives voltage/2-DC level drift/minimum operating voltage of 2 >=chip internal ".The minimum operating voltage in inside of supposing transformer 120 is 0.6V, and transmission line is when being short-term, and transmission voltage can be reduced to 0.8V, reception voltage is 1V, and transmission line is during for long line, and then transmission voltage is 1V, and reception voltage is 0.8V.In this hypothesis DC level drift value<0.6, and bring the aforementioned calculation mode into, can obtain Vct=1.5~1.8V.
In addition; After power supply adjustment unit 130 receives the second control signal CS2_1 (signal noise ratio that receives signal RS is higher); Can produce the second adjustment voltage RV2_1 (voltage that also is about to analog circuit 112 is turned down), and be sent to the analog circuit 112 in the chip 110.After power supply adjustment unit 130 receives the second control signal CS2_2 (signal noise that receives signal RS is lower), can produce the second adjustment voltage RV2_2 (voltage that also is about to analog circuit 112 is heightened), and be sent to the analog circuit 112 in the chip 110.By this, can reduce the power consumption of network transmission device effectively.
In addition, after power supply adjustment unit 130 receives the 3rd control signal CS3_1 (internal latency of chip 110 is less), can produce the 3rd adjustment voltage RV3_1 (voltage that also is about to digital circuit 113 is turned down), and be sent to the digital circuit 113 in the chip 110.After power supply adjustment unit 130 receives the 3rd control signal CS3_2 (internal latency of chip 110 is bigger), can produce the 3rd adjustment voltage RV3_2 (voltage that also is about to digital circuit 113 is heightened), and be sent to the digital circuit 113 in the chip 110.
Please continue with reference to Fig. 1, network transmission device 100 still comprises resistance R 1 and R2.First end of resistance R 1 is coupled to first end of the primary side of transformer 120.First end of resistance R 2 is coupled to second end of resistance R 1, and second end of resistance R 2 is coupled to second end of the primary side of transformer 120.In the present embodiment, resistance R 1 for example is 50 ohm (Ω) with the resistance value of R2, but does not limit its scope.
What deserves to be mentioned is; The foregoing description is to produce the first control signal CS1, the second control signal CS2 and the 3rd control signal simultaneously with detection and control unit 111; Produce the first adjustment voltage RV1, the second adjustment voltage RV2 or the 3rd adjustment voltage RV3 respectively, let network transmission device 100 reach less electricity consumption.But the invention is not restricted to produce simultaneously the first control signal CS1, the second control signal CS2 and the 3rd control signal CS3; Detection also capable of using and control unit 111 are according to the network transfer speeds, DC level drift, transmission amplitude and the length of transmission line that receive among the signal RS; Produce control signal and adjust the size of the centre tapped adjustment voltage of the primary side that is sent to transformer 120, to save the power consumption of network transmission device.Again or, detect and control unit 111 can produce the size that control signal is adjusted the adjustment voltage of the analog circuit 112 that is sent to chip 110 according to the signal noise ratio that receives signal RS, to save the power consumption of network transmission device.Also or, detect and the size of the internal latency that control unit 110 can detection chip 110, produce the size that control signal is adjusted the adjustment voltage of the digital circuit 113 that is sent in the chip 110, to save the power consumption of network transmission device.
