GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Realtek RTL8100C(L) is a highly integrated, cost-effective single-chip Fast Ethernet controller that provides 32-bit performance, PCI bus master capability, and full compliance with IEEE 802.3u 100Base-T specifications and IEEE 802.3x Full Duplex Flow Control. It also supports the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI), PCI power management for modern operating systems that are capable of Operating System-Directed Power Management (OSPM) to achieve the most efficient power management possible. In addition to the ACPI feature, the RTL8100C(L) also supports remote wake-up (including AMD Magic Packet, LinkChg, and Microsoft® wake-up frame) in both ACPI and APM (Advanced Power Management) environments. Also, the LWAKE pin provides 4 output signals (active high, active low, positive pulse, and negative pulse). The versatility of the RTL8100C(L) LWAKE pin provides motherboards with Wake-On-LAN (WOL) functionality. The RTL8100C(L) also supports Analog Auto-Power-down.
