MicroMod Single Pair Ethernet Function Board - ADIN1110 Hookup Guide
Introduction
The SparkFun MicroMod Single Pair Ethernet Function Board - ADIN1110 introduces 10Base-T1L Single Pair Ethernet protocol into the SparkFun MicroMod ecosystem. Using the ADIN1110 Ethernet transceiver from Analog Devices Inc., this Function Board provides a development tool for long-range, 10Mb/s single-pair 10BASE-T1L Ethernet applications. The 10BASE-T1L Ethernet supported by the ADIN1110 is compatible with the 802.3cg IEEE® standard, supports high bandwidth up to 10Mb/s and can send and receive data on connections over 1 kilometer long! We also have the MicroMod Single Pair Ethernet Kit that includes nearly everything you need to get started prototyping a MicroMod Single Pair Ethernet connection. Just make sure to grab a pair of MicroMod Processor Boards.
In this guide we'll cover the basics of 10BASE-T1L Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE), what to expect from the ADIN1110 and other hardware present on this Function Board, how to assemble a SPE circuit and use it with our ADIN1110 Arduino Library.
Required Materials
The following materials are necessary for following along with this guide. All Function Boards require a Main Board and Processor to connect to each other. Depending on your application, you may need a Single or Dual Main Board:
A Processor Board is needed to act as a host controller for the Function Board:
Finally, a Single Pair Ethernet cable is required to connect the two MicroMod assemblies to each other:
