IP101GA

Overview

The IP101GA is a single-port Ethernet PHY transceiver manufactured by WIZnet, designed for integration into embedded networking systems. It supports both 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX standards, enabling data rates of 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s respectively. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3.135 V to 3.465 V and functions reliably in temperatures from 0°C to +70°C. It features MII and RMII interface options and supports full-duplex and half-duplex communication modes. Packaged in an LQFP-48 surface-mount format, this component facilitates physical layer connectivity for networked applications.

Feature Summary

• Supports standard 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet protocols
• Offers flexible MII and RMII digital interfaces for host connection
• Capable of full-duplex and half-duplex transmission modes

Applications

• Embedded industrial control systems requiring Ethernet connectivity
• Consumer electronics with network interface capabilities
• IoT devices needing reliable physical layer transmission

Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status as the component may be subject to limited distribution or special order requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance details and moisture sensitivity levels before procurement. Ensure compatibility with existing board designs regarding the LQFP-48 package dimensions and pinout configuration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated PHY solution is required for 10/100 Mbps Ethernet links. Consider the specific voltage tolerance of 3.135 V to 3.465 V during power rail design. Evaluate the need for MII versus RMII interfaces based on available host controller pins and clock constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the WIZnet Ethernet IC family, specifically categorized under communication and networking integrated circuits. It serves as a standalone transceiver unit, distinct from MAC-integrated controllers. The LQFP-48 package provides sufficient pin count for comprehensive management and status signals alongside data lines.

Replacement Considerations

Check for official discontinuation notices from WIZnet. Verify if newer revisions of the IP101 series offer improved performance or updated packaging. Ensure any substitute maintains identical interface timing and voltage specifications.
