Wiznet Ethernet ICs
Ethernet ICs (Integrated Circuits) are semiconductor devices that are typically used in communication systems to enable data transfer over a network. They provide an interface between different layers of communication in a network, such as the physical, data link, and network layers. Ethernet ICs typically use a combination of serial and parallel ports to communicate with other devices. They are designed to provide reliable transmission over long distances, making them ideal for networking applications. The most popular types of Ethernet ICs are Ethernet controllers, transceivers, repeaters, and switches. These components are used to connect routers, modems and other devices to create a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN). Ethernet ICs often contain a 32-bit processor and other on-board components that enable data transmission and error detection.
