The USB to MAC Ethernet Controller is a unique solution
to interface peripheral devices to Universal Serial
Bus 2.0 (USB 2.0) and 10/100 Base -T Ethernet. This
device has been specially designed to provide simple
solution to communicate with Ethernet applications accomplished
by its highly integrated functionality. It is ideal
for LAN (Local Area Network) applications. It provides
internal buffering to enable parallel operations from
USB ports on host side and MAC ports on the Ethernet
bus. It also provides serial interface for EEPROM storing
device ID.
