Description
The STE10/100A is a high performing PCI fast ethernet controller with integrated physical layer interface for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX applications.
It was designed with advanced CMOS technology to provide glueless 32-bit bus master interface for PCI bus, boot ROM interface, CSMA/CD protocol for fast ethernet, as well as the physical media interface for 100BASE-TX of IEEE802.3u and 10BASE-T of IEEE802.3. The auto-negotiation function is also supported for speed and duplex detection.
