Description

The Broadcom® BCM5751M is one of three NetXtreme™ Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) controllers that implement the advanced PCI Express host interface. Representing the world's first support for the PCI Express specification, the BCM5751M is optimized for the tight space constraints of mobile PCs, enabling the industry's smallest footprint. In addition, the BCM5751M can sense how the mobile PC is being utilized and will reduce the power down to the lowest level necessary for that usage. Whether docked or mobile, transmitting data or not, the BCM5751M's advanced power management logic provides six power-down modes to always use the lowest power possible, extending battery life. Through an integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM), the BCM5751M also includes support for the Trusted Computing Group 1.1b specification, offering security features and strong authentication to protect corporate information from attack.

Built upon six generations of field-proven Gigabit Ethernet media access controller (MAC) and physical layer (PHY) transceiver technology, the BCM5751M utilizes a fully integrated 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet MAC, PCI Express bus interface, on-chip buffer memory, and integrated PHY in a single-chip solution designed specifically for LAN on motherboard (LOM) and network interface card (NIC) applications. This single chip solution is fabricated in a low-voltage, 0.13-micron CMOS process that provides low power consumption.

The BCM5751M features a comprehensive software suite offering a complete solution for client and server applications, including drivers for all popular operating systems. The NetXtreme architecture also features a unique processor-based design, enabling advanced management software to run in firmware so it can be remotely upgraded via simple downloads.
