1. Center-tap current may be supplied from 3.3 V VCCA as shown. Additional power savings may
be realized by supplying the center-tap from a 2.5 V current source. A separate ferrite bead
(rated at 50 mA) should be used to supply center-tap current.
2. The 100 Ω transmit load termination resistor typically required is integrated in the LXT971A.
3. Magnetics without a receive pair center-tap do not require a 2 kV termination.
4. RJ-45 connections shown for standard NIC. TX/RX crossover may be required for repeater and
switch applications.
