PHY 1-CH 10Mbps/100Mbps 64-Pin QFN

The Marvel 88E3018 devices is the fourth generation Marvell DSP-based physical layer transceivers for Fast Ethernet applications. The devices contain all the active circuitry to convert data streams to and from a Media Access Controller (MAC) and the physical media. The 88E3018 devices incorporate IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation in support of both 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T networks over twisted pair cable in full-duplex or half-duplex mode. The 88E3018 devices both support the Reduced Gigabit Media Independent Interface (RGMII), and the Media Independent Interface (MI1). The 88E3018 devices feature a mode of operation supporting IEEE compliant 100BASE-FX fiber optic networks. Additionally, the 88E3018 devices implement Far-End Fault Indication (FEFI) in order to provide a mechanism for transferring information from the local station to the link partner that indicates a remote fault has occurred in 100BASE-FX mode. The 88E3018 devices feature the Marvell Virtual Cable Tester (VCT) technology, which enables IT managers and networking equipment manufacturers to remotely analyze the quality and characteristics of the attached cable plant. The 88E3018 devices use advanced mixed signal processing and power management techniques for extremely low power dissipation and high port count system integration. The 88E3018 devices is a manufactured in an all CMOS process.
