Applications
The EVB8700 Evaluation board simplifies the process of testing and evaluating an Ethernet Connection in your appli-
cation. The LAN8700 device is installed on the EVB board and all associated circuitry is included, along with all config-
uration options.
The Benefits of adding an external MII interface are:
Easier system and software development
Verify MAC to PHY interface
Support testing of FPGA implementations of MAC
Assist interoperability test of various networks
Verify MII compliance
Verify performance of HP AutoMDIX feature
Verify Variable IO compliance
