Ethernet controller NCN26010 series

The NCN26010 device is an IEEE 802.3cg compliant Ethernet Transceiver including a Media Access Controller (MAC), a PLCA Reconciliation Sublayer (RS) and a 10BASE−T1S PHY designed for industrial multi−drop Ethernet. It provides all physical layer functions needed to transmit and receive data over a single unshielded twisted pair. NCN26010 communicates to host MCUs via Open Alliance MACPHY SPI protocol. Applications Industrial Automation Sensor and Control Interfacing Home / Building Control Security and Field Instrumentation End Products Programmable Logic Controllers Distributed Control Systems Motor Starters Contactors Autonomous Mobile Robots Servers Intelligent Sensors and Lighting Control Panels Human/Machine Interfaces Features Enhanced Noise Immunity Mode: - ENI extends the noise immunity to values well above the IEEE T1S standard - Allows the NCN26010 to withstand worst-case DPI and BCI immunity tests - Significantly improves the network reach when enabled, almost 2X better than competition - Unique to NCN26010 Lowest Line Pin Capacitance: - Best-in-class line pin capacitance allows for the highest number of nodes per segment. - The NCN26010 supports up to 40 nodes on a 25-meter segment, well above the IEEE minimum standard - Lowers cabling, connector, and installation costs Collision Detection Masking: - Masking detected collisions allows operation in noisy conditions - Prevents false collision detection in high-noise environments - When used in conjunction with ENI, the NCNS26010 has unparalleled noise tolerance PLCA Precedence Mode: - Lower PLCA ID's get precedence over higher ones
