Ethernet design using discrete components

Applicable receivers:  BD970

For maximum flexibility, a system integrator may choose to implement the ethernet using discrete parts. The design below shows an example of such a design. It includes the ethernet magnetics, termination of unused lines as well as surge protection. The magnetics used is a Pulse Engineering HX1188. Surge protection is provided by a Semtech SLVU2.8-4. In order to meet electrical isolation requirements, it is recommended to use capacitors with a greater than 2 kV breakdown voltage.
