Description

Electronic Component Model: V86999CC4DX

Product Category: IC Chips

82573 GbE controllers are single, compact components with integrated Gigabit Ethernet Media Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY) functions. These devices use PCIe* architecture (Revision 1.0a). For desktop, workstation, and value server network designs with critical space constraints, the 82573 enables a GbE implementation in a very small area.

Specifications and features

- On-chip power control circuitry

- Loopback capabilities

- JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) Test Access Port (TAP) built in silicon

- Lead-free 196-pin Thin and Fine Pitch Ball Grid Array (TF-BGA) package

- Operating temperature: 0° C to 70° C (with external regulators)

- Operating temperature: 0° to 55° C (with ondie 2.5V regulator)

- Storage temperature -40° C to 125° C

Application Scenarios

This electronic component model can be used in various network designs, including desktop, workstation, and value server networks.

It is especially suitable for designs with critical space constraints due to its compact size.
