Core Features & Advantages
The LAN8710A-EZC delivers an ultra-low-power 10/100 Ethernet PHY in a 4 x 4mm QFN-24 with RMII MAC interface, HP Auto-MDIX, and IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet for embedded networking applications.
- Primary Function: Single-port 10/100 Ethernet PHY transceiver with RMII interface to MAC, integrating all analog front-end, 100BASE-TX PCS, and Auto-MDIX in a compact QFN-24 package.
- Advantages:
- Ultra-low 135mW at 100Mbps / <1mW power-down — lowest power consumption in its class, enabling fanless and battery-backed networking designs with IEEE 802.3az EEE support.
- HP Auto-MDIX (auto crossover) — eliminates the need for crossover cables or manual MDI/MDIX selection, simplifying field installation and reducing support calls.
- Internal 1.2V regulator and single 3.3V supply — no external 1.2V LDO required, reducing BOM count and solution footprint for cost-sensitive embedded Ethernet designs.
Typical Application Scenarios
- Industry: Industrial / Consumer / IoT / Networking
- Equipment: Embedded SBCs, IoT gateways, industrial controllers, smart home hubs
- Use Cases:
- RMII-connected 10/100 Ethernet port on STM32 or i.MX RT MPU-based embedded systems with minimal PCB area.
- Industrial IoT edge gateway Ethernet interface with IEEE 802.3az EEE reducing power during idle periods.
- Smart home hub and consumer device Ethernet connectivity with Auto-MDIX for plug-and-play installation without crossover cable concerns.
