Analog Devices ADIN1100 | Demoboard EVAL-ADIN1100EBZ

Description

The EVAL-ADIN1100EBZ is a flexible platform enabling quick evaluation of ADIN1100, robust, low power 10BASE-T1L PHY. It provides 10Mbit per second Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) connections with devices over 1.7km of cable.The evaluation board offers two modes of operation for maximum flexibility. Connected to a PC via USB port, the full set of ADIN1100 register settings and features such as link quality monitoring and diagnostics can be accessed with the ADIN1100 Graphical User Interface software.Alternatively, the board can operate in stand-alone mode where it is configured by setting hardware configuration links and switches. Onboard LEDs provide status indication.The ADIN1100 data (MII, RMII and RGMII) and management (MDIO) interfaces are accessible on header connectors for easy connection to an external host controller.A small prototyping area and test points are provided for experimentation with alternative cable connection topologies including isolation transformers and/or power coupling inductors.The platform can perform as a 10BASE-T1L to 10BASE-T media converter. This enables connection to other devices – demos or a custom protypes – with a 10BASE-T1L Ethernet port and conversion of the data to standard Ethernet accessible via the RJ45 connector.
