Chapter 3 Typical ICS1893AF Applications
The ICS1893AF is configured for the majority of single Phy Ethernet applications. These applications
include Network Interface Cards, PC Motherboards, Printers, ACR Riser cards, Set top Boxes, and Game
machines.
Virtually any single Phy application utilizing the standard IEEE MII interface can use the ICS1893AF. The
ICS1893AF offers the same high performance at a lower cost.
