LAN8720A-CP-TR

Product Overview

The LAN8720A-CP-TR from Microchip Technology is a 24-QFN transceiver IC intended for network interface applications. It supports MII and RMII protocols, provides a 2/2 driver and receiver configuration, and operates in full duplex mode at a 100 Mbps data rate. The device uses a 24-VFQFN exposed-pad package with a 4x4 body, uses surface-mount assembly, and operates from a 1.6V to 3.6V supply over a 0°C to 85°C temperature range. It is part of the flexPWR™ series.

Key Features

• Supports MII and RMII protocols for network interface designs.
• Provides 2/2 driver and receiver configuration with full duplex operation.
• Operates at a 100 Mbps data rate.
• Accepts a supply voltage range of 1.6V to 3.6V.
• Uses a 24-VFQFN exposed-pad package with a 4x4 body for surface-mount assembly.
• Operates over a 0°C to 85°C temperature range.

Applications

• Networked embedded controllers and gateways requiring a compact 100 Mbps interface.
• Data acquisition and control equipment using MII or RMII host connections.
• Communication subsystems in electronic devices that operate within the specified 0°C to 85°C range.

Design & Procurement Notes

Designers should verify that the host controller supports MII or RMII and that the selected supply rail remains within 1.6V to 3.6V under all operating conditions. The 24-VFQFN exposed-pad package requires surface-mount processing and attention to pad layout, reflow profile, and thermal management. The 0°C to 85°C temperature range should be considered when selecting nearby components and enclosure materials. Procurement teams should confirm the exact manufacturer part number LAN8720A-CP-TR and package dimensions, since the 4x4 body affects board area and assembly requirements.
