LAN9211

For product comparison, please consider:

The LAN9211 is a full-featured, single-chip 10/100 Ethernet controller designed for embedded applications where performance, flexibility, ease of integration and system cost control are required. The LAN9211 has been specifically designed to provide high performance and throughput for 16-bit applications. The LAN9211 is fully IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T and 802.3u 100BASE-TX compliant, and supports HP Auto-MDIX.

The LAN9211 includes an integrated Ethernet MAC and PHY with a high-performance SRAM-like slave interface. The simple, yet highly functional host bus interface provides a glue-less connection to most common 16-bit microprocessors and microcontrollers as well as 32-bit microprocessors with a 16-bit external bus. The integrated checksum offload engines enable the automatic generation of the 16-bit checksum for received and transmitted Ethernet frames, offloading the task from the CPU. The LAN9211 also includes large transmit and receive data FIFOs to accommodate high latency applications. In addition, the LAN9211 memory buffer architecture allows the most efficient use of memory resources by optimizing packet granularity.

The  EEPROM device from Microchip comes with a factory programmed, globally unique EUI-48™ MAC Address. This Ethernet controller will automatically detect and load the EUI-48™ node address from the  EEPROM at start-up or reset. 

*The service is subject to Microchip's and requires a myMicrochip account.
