General Description
The DAVICOM’s DM9102 is a highly integrated single chip Fast Ethernet controller. It fully integrated 100BASE TX/10Base-T Fast Ethernet MAC, PHY and PMD. It is fully compliant with PCI Spec. 2.1 and IEEE802.3u.
The DM9102 provides a direct interface to the PCI local bus and direct connection to the network wire. As a controller, it provides the bus master capability. The DM9102 also supports auto-negotiation function that enables it to detect speed and duplex automatically. Due to the well-controlled rising/falling time, it requires no external filter to transmit signal to the media.
