KSZ8842-16MVLI-TR

Controllers Overview

The KSZ8842-16MVLI-TR is a fully managed, two-port Ethernet switch with a non-PCI CPU interface. It supports IEEE 802.3u standards and operates in commercial or industrial temperature ranges. The device features an 8/16-bit generic host processor interface, two 10/100 transceivers, and two MAC units. It includes a high-speed non-blocking switch fabric, a 1K entry forwarding table, and on-chip frame buffer memory. Power supply requirements are met by a single 3.3V source. The component is housed in a 128-pin LQFP package.

Controllers Feature Summary

• Supports tag/port-based VLAN, QoS priority management, and MIB counters for comprehensive network control.
• Configurable as a low-latency repeater or switch to address latency-critical embedded applications.
• Includes LinkMD cable diagnostic capabilities to determine cable length and diagnose faults.

Controllers Applications

• Video Distribution Systems

• Security and Surveillance Cameras

Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid traceability documentation. Confirm that the component matches the exact part number specifications before integration into production designs.

Controllers Selection Notes

Select this model when an industrial temperature range is required alongside an 8/16-bit bus interface. Compare against the -MQL variant if a PQFP package is preferred instead of LQFP. Verify compatibility with the host processor's bus timing requirements and voltage levels before finalizing the design.
