NXP Semiconductors RDDRONE-T1ADAPT Ethernet Media Converter
NXP Semiconductors RDDRONE-T1ADAPT Ethernet Media Converter is intended for drones, rovers, mobile robotics, and automotive applications. The RDDRONE-T1ADAPT Ethernet Media Converter translates from automotive 2-wire Ethernet (100BASE-T1) to Fast Ethernet (100BASE-TX). The device is automotive IEEE 100BASE-T1 compliant, with 100Mbit/s transmit and receive capability up to at least 15m of unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable.The NXP RDDRONE-T1ADAPT Ethernet Media Converter is a plug-and-play tool based on the TJA1101B 100BASE-T1 PHY and the LPC812 microcontroller Arm® M0+ MCU family. The RDDRONE-T1ADAPT is well suited for evaluating and debugging 100BASE-T1 Ethernet networks in various applications like Automotive, Industrial, and IoT segments. Additionally, the device is used to develop distributed architectures where robotics nodes are connected over robust and reliable 100BASE-T1 Ethernet interfaces.
