VSC8538
Octal Port 10/100/1000BASE-T PHY
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The VSC8538 is a low power octal Gigabit
DSP architecture yield robust performance, supporting both
Ethernet transceiver ideal for mulit-port
full and half duplex 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T
switch and router applications. The device's
over >140m of Category 5, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable,
compact BGA package is optimal for
with industry leading tolerance to NEXT, FEXT, Echo, and
high-density switch applications. Vitesse's mixed signal and
system noise.
