AN985BX-BG-T-V1

Overview

The AN985BX-BG-T-V1 is a network controller and processor IC manufactured by Infineon Technologies, designed for wired network interface card applications. It integrates a 10/100 Base-T/TX PHY compliant with IEEE 802.3 standards. The component utilizes a PCI interface for system connectivity and is housed in a PG-BFQFP-128 package. It supports Cardbus Ethernet functionality, providing reliable data transfer capabilities for embedded networking systems requiring low power consumption and standard Ethernet protocol support.

Feature Summary

• Integrates 10/100 Base-T/TX PHY compliant with IEEE 802.3 standards
• Supports PCI interface for system connectivity
• Designed for Cardbus Ethernet controller applications

Applications

• Wired Network Interface Card (NIC) design
• Cardbus Ethernet controller implementations
• Embedded networking systems requiring 10/100 Mbps connectivity

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors before procurement. Ensure that the PG-BFQFP-128 package dimensions match the target PCB footprint requirements. Confirm that the operating temperature range meets the environmental specifications of the intended application environment to guarantee long-term reliability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated Ethernet controller with integrated PHY is required for Cardbus or PCI-based systems. It is suitable for applications needing standard 10/100 Mbps wired connectivity without external PHY components. Consider thermal management requirements due to the QFP package type and ensure the host system supports the necessary PCI interface signals for proper integration.
