LAN8820/LAN8820I
1.0
INTRODUCTION
The LAN8820/LAN8820i is a low-power 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet physical layer (PHY)
transceiver that is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3 and 802.3ab standards.
The LAN8820/LAN8820i can be configured to communicate with an Ethernet MAC via the standard RGMII interface. It
contains a full-duplex transceiver for 1000Mbps operation on four pairs of category 5 or better balanced twisted pair
cable. Per IEEE 802.3-2005 standards, all digital interface pins are tolerant to 3.6V.
The LAN8820/LAN8820i is configurable via hardware and software, supporting both IEEE 802.3-2005 compliant and
vendor-specific register functions via SMI. The LAN8820/LAN8820i implements Auto-Negotiation to automatically
determine the best possible speed and duplex mode of operation. HP Auto-MDIX support allows the use of direct con-
nect or cross-over cables.
An internal block diagram of the LAN8820/LAN8820i is shown in
Figure 1-1.
A typical system-level diagram is shown in
Figure 1-2.
