Hi, In an Ethernet connection I am supposed to use a chip called PE64102. The socket is marked "tr1" which could mean "Transceiver". - What does this chip do? - Who makes it?

The part you are referring to is a triple isolation transformer. Pulse Engineering (San Diago) makes this part. Valor is another company that makes equivalent transformers for the ethernet applications. Most of the boards that I have seen before use Valor's transformers. I think they might be cheaper. A guy that I know in another country also makes this kind of transformers for a lot less. -- Sehat Sutarja, {decwrl!sun}!imagen!iit!sehat | Integrated Information Tech. sutarja@janus.Berkeley.EDU | Santa Clara, CA.
