Core Features & Advantages
The LAN8710A-EZC-TR delivers the same ultra-low-power 10/100 Ethernet PHY as the LAN8710A-EZC in a Tape & Reel packaging variant (TR suffix) with Copper bond wire (EZC suffix), optimized for SMT automated production lines.
- Primary Function: Single-port 10/100 Ethernet PHY transceiver with RMII/MII MAC interface, HP Auto-MDIX, and IEEE 802.3az EEE in a 32-pin QFN package, supplied on tape & reel for automated SMT assembly.
- Advantages:
- TR Tape & Reel packaging (4000 pcs/reel) — designed for automated SMT pick-and-place production lines, unlike the tray-packaged LAN8710A-EZC which requires manual handling or tray feeders.
- Copper bond wire (EZC suffix) vs Gold bond wire (EZK suffix) — copper bond wire provides equivalent electrical performance with lower material cost, offering a cost advantage for high-volume production without performance compromise.
- Internal 1.2V regulator with disable feature — single 3.3V supply operation eliminates external 1.2V LDO, while regulator bypass mode enables use of high-efficiency external DC-DC for further power reduction.
