Boyd Barrie | MSDS Applications Group |
Abstract
The Texas Instruments (TI‰) TNETE2201 EVM (evaluation module) kit is a tool used to evaluate and design high-speed prototypes using the TNETE2201 Ethernet Transceiver IC (10 mm x 10 mm TQFP plastic package). The EVM kit is used to evaluate device parameters while acting as a guide for high-speed board layout. The high-speed interface is selectable between a 50-WSMA connector and a GBIC standard interface. The GBIC standard also provides a 75-Wcopper interface module and various fiber optic options. Overall, the designer can use the EVM kit as a tool for successful evaluation and design of an end product.
