GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LAN83C175 EPIC/C is a high-performance Low CPU Utilization Ethernet network controller designed to interface directly to the CardBus Local Bus on one side and to the 802.3 standard Media Independent Interface (MII) on the other side. The network interface can also be configured to communicate directly with the LAN83C694 10BASE-T transceiver.
