DP8390D General Description
The DP8390DNS32490D Network Interface Controller (NIC) is a microCMOS VLSI device designed to ease interfacing with CSMACD type local area networks including Ethernet Thin Ethernet (Cheapernet) and StarLAN The NIC implements all Media Access Control (MAC) layer functions for transmission and reception of packets in accordance with the IEEE 8023 Standard Unique dual DMA channels and an internal FIFO provide a simple yet efficient packet management design To minimize system parts count and cost all bus arbitration and memory support logic are integrated into the NIC
The NIC is the heart of a three chip set that implements the complete IEEE 8023 protocol and node electronics as shown below The others include the DP8391 Serial Network Interface (SNI) and the DP8392 Coaxial Transceiver Interface (CTI)
