The DP83826A offers low and deterministic latency, low power, robust EMC and immunity, and supports 10BASE-Te, 100BASE-TX Ethernet protocols to meet stringent requirements in real-time industrial Ethernet systems. The device includes hardware bootstraps to achieve fast link-up time, fast link-drop detection modes and dedicated reference CLKOUT to clock synchronize other modules on the systems. The device interfaces to the MAC layer through a Media Independent Interface (MII) or a Reduced MII (RMII) both in Master and Slave mode. The DP83826AEVM demonstrates all the features of DP83826A. The EVM supports 10BASE-Te and 100BASE-TX Ethernet protocols. The EVM includes connections to use the DP83826A MII and RMII pins through header pins.
