Microchip Technology, Inc. Interface - Specialized EQCO850SC.3

The EQCO850SC.3 is a single-coax transceiver designed for Fast Ethernet applications, capable of operating over a 50,Ѷ coaxial cable. It integrates both transmitter and receiver functions, along with an equalizer, to facilitate a full-duplex bidirectional connection. This device is compatible with the FX version of Fast Ethernet and supports data rates of 125 Mbps. It operates at a low power consumption of 205 mW from a single 3.3V supply and includes integrated termination resistors, reducing the need for external components. The EQCO850SC.3 is suitable for various applications, including camera networks, home networking over coax infrastructure, and connections for TV, set-top boxes, and personal video recorders. It supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) for power and data distribution over coax, making it a versatile choice for projects where traditional cabling options are limited. The product is packaged in a 16-pin, 0.65 mm pin pitch QFN format and is compliant with RoHS standards.
