ML4668 Low Power Single Chip 10BASE-FL Transceiver
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML4668 single-chip 10BASE-FL transceiver is a low power, high output current, plug-compatible version of the industry standard ML4663. The ML4668 offers a standard IEEE 802.3 AU interface that allows it to be directly connected to industry standard manchester encoder/ decoder chips or an AUI connector. The ML4668 provides a highly integrated solution that requires a minimal number of external components, and is compliant to the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-FL standard. The transmitter offers a 100mA maximum current drive output that directly drives a fiber optic LED transmitter.
