Realtek RTL8153 Chipset

The IEEE 802.3u compliant Media Access Controller (MAC), USB 3.0 bus controller, and embedded memory are all included in the Realtek RTL8153-CG 10/100/1000M Ethernet controller.
The RTL8153 enables high-speed transmission over CAT 5 UTP cable or CAT 3 UTP (10Mbps only) cable, thanks to state-of-the-art DSP technology and mixed-mode signal technology.
To provide robust transmission and reception capabilities, functions such as Crossover Detection and Auto-Correction, polarity correction, adaptive e qualization, cross-talk cancellation, echo cancellation, time recovery, and error correction are included.
The inbuilt One-Time-Programmable (OTP) memory of the RTL8153 can be used to replace the external EEPROM (93C46/93C56/93C66/TWSI).
