[INTELLON CONFIDENTIAL]

General Description

The INT5130 IC is an integrated powerline MAC/PHY transceiver providing No New WiresTM communications to any room, over any wire, at speeds of up to 14 Mbps. The INT5130 provides the ability to select between a complete Media Independent Interface (MII) or a reduced General Purpose Serial Interface (GPSI) for interconnection to the external MAC controller. The INT5130 also provides the option of selecting between a Management Data Interface (MDI) or a simple Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) for handling the management and control of the MII/GPSI interface.
