The recommended operating temperature range for the RTL8100CL-LF is 0°C to 70°C (commercial temperature range) or -40°C to 85°C (industrial temperature range), depending on the specific application and requirements.
The RTL8100CL-LF can be configured for half-duplex or full-duplex operation through the DUPLEX_MODE pin. A logic high on this pin enables full-duplex operation, while a logic low enables half-duplex operation.
The maximum transmission distance supported by the RTL8100CL-LF depends on the specific application and cable quality, but it can support distances of up to 100 meters over Category 5e or higher cabling.
The RTL8100CL-LF has a built-in power management feature that can be controlled through the PME# pin. The device can be put into a low-power state by asserting the PME# pin, and it can be woken up by de-asserting the PME# pin.
The RTL8100CL-LF requires a 25 MHz crystal oscillator with a frequency tolerance of ±50 ppm and a load capacitance of 18 pF.
