PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The 88E3082/88E3083 devices are third generation Marvell¨ DSP-based 8-port 10/100BASE-T Fast Ethernet (FE)
transceivers. The devices offer the industryÕs lowest power consumption at only 150mW per port resulting
in higher port density, lower cost FE switches. Additionally, the 88E3082/88E3083 devices integrate the industryÕs
most advanced feature set, such as Virtual Cable Testerª technology for remote cable diagnostics and the
support for very low power modes.
The 88E3082/88E3083 devices contain all of the active circuitry to convert data streams to and from eight
Media Access Controllers (MACs) and the physical media. The 88E3082 device incorporates IEEE 802.3u AutoNegotiation in support of both 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T networks over twisted-pair cable in full-duplex or
half-duplex mode.

APPLICATIONS
To reduce the number of input/output (I/O) pins between the MAC and the Physical Layer (PHY), the 88E3082 device supports
the Reduced Media Independent Interface (RMII), the Serial Media Independent Interface (SMII) as well as the Source
Synchronous option of SMII (SSMII). The SSMII interface extends the allowed PCB trace distance between the PHY and the
MAC, thereby facilitating more robust, higher port density, FE switch designs. The 88E3083 device supports the SMII and
SSMII interfaces, and 100BASE-FX fiber on a single port.
The 88E3082 also features a mode of operation supporting IEEE compliant 100BASE-FX fiber-optic networks. The device includes
a PECL interface that is selectable on a per port basis for 100BASE-FX applications.
