ASIX Offers New Non-PCI Ethernet Controller

ASIX today announced the sample availability of its newly developed non-PCI Ethernet controller for the embedded networking applications - the AX88796A.

The AX88796A, Non-PCI 8/16-bit 10/100M Fast Ethernet Controller with Embedded PHY, is a high performance and highly integrated local CPU bus Ethernet Controller with embedded 10/100Mbps PHY/Transceiver and 8K*16 bit SRAM. The AX88796A supports both 8 bit and 16 bit local CPU interfaces, which include MCS-51 series, 80186 series, MC68K series CPU, and ISA bus. The AX88796A implements both 10Mbps and 100Mbps Ethernet function based on IEEE802.3/IEEE802.3u LAN standards. The AX88796A also provides an extra IEEE802.3u compliant media-independent interface (MII) to support other media applications. Using the MII interface, the Home LAN PHY type of media can also be supported. The programming of AX88796A is very simple and compatible with NE2000, so the users can port the software drivers to any system quickly and easily.
