LXT971A

Low-power, dual-speed network applications for the LXT971A transceiver include: network interface cards (NICs), PCMCIA cards, cable modems, set-top boxes and IP phones.

The LXT971A includes an MII with extended register capability and an optional 2.5V power supply interface for additional power savings. For 100BASE-FX fiber networks, the LXT971A is designed with a pseudo-ECL (PECL) interface for seamless integration with common industrystandard fiber modules.

High-performance network applications that demand lower power are growing rapidly in today's marketplace. Intel, a leading provider of Ethernet silicon solutions, has enhanced the commitment to its Ethernet product family with its latest 10/100 Fast Ethernet transceiver. The Intel® LXT971A is a next-generation low-power, single-port PHY with significantly expanded Cable Discharge Event (CDE) protection.

Revolutionary design techniques of LXT971A incorporate Intel's Optimal Signal Processing (OSP) architecture, an ideal combination of digital signal processing and analog design techniques designed for die size, power consumption, performance, reliability, and testability.
