Application Information
Magnetics Information
The LXT970A requires a 1:1 ratio for both the receive and the transmit transformers. Refer to
for magnetics requirements.
A cross-reference list of magnetic manufacturers and part numbers is available in
Application Note
73, Magnetic Manufacturers,
which can be found on the Intel web site (developer.intel.com/design/
network/). Designers must test and evaluate all components for suitability in their applications.
