DP83910AN Übersicht
A Serial Network Interface (SNI) is a category of interface IC that sits between the Ethernet coaxial transceiver and the system controller, performing Manchester encoding, clock recovery, jabber monitoring, and link-integrity signalling per the IEEE 802.3 physical-layer specification. Within the broader hierarchy, the DP83910AN belongs to the network interface IC family, which falls under interface ICs, then integrated circuits, then semiconductors, providing OSI layer-1 connectivity and isolating the host CPU from line-coding analogue details.
Key features include 10 Mb/s Manchester encoding/decoding, integrated jabber detection and Link Test generation, CMOS low-power operation versus the original bipolar DP8391, and a wide supply tolerance of 4.75 V to 5.25 V. The 24-DIP through-hole package supports easy insertion into legacy Ethernet adapter boards and industrial retrofit designs, while the CMOS process reduces typical operating current compared to its bipolar predecessor. The device also provides collision-detection and carrier-sense signalling flags that flow into the upper-layer MAC controller.
Architecturally, the DP83910AN combines a phase-locked loop (PLL) for receive clock recovery, a 10 MHz oscillator interface, transmit clock-generation logic, and differential Manchester encode/decode blocks. Because the silicon is a drop-in CMOS replacement for the DP8391, existing schematic layouts can accept the DP83910AN without board rework, a critical advantage for legacy industrial networks and instrumentation that depend on the older part.
Typical applications include 10BASE2 / 10BASE5 Ethernet adapter cards, industrial SCADA controllers, legacy factory-floor networking interfaces, and embedded instrumentation that must communicate over IEEE 802.3 media. The DP83910AN is also commonly used by restoration projects for early-1990s networking hardware and by test equipment vendors supporting IEEE 802.3 physical-layer compliance.
When designing with this device, note that the DP83910AN is now in obsolete/EOL lifecycle, so long-term sourcing requires attention to authorized distributor stock and the qualified cross-references listed in the alternatives section. Decoupling with 0.1 uF ceramic capacitors close to VCC/GND pins is essential for the integrated PLL to maintain stable clock recovery under varying line loading.

Typische Anwendungen
DP83910AN ist geeignet für 6 Anwendungs: 10BASE2 / 10BASE5 Ethernet Adapter Cards, Industrial SCADA / Factory Network Controllers, Legacy Network Hardware Restoration, IEEE 802.3 Physical-Layer Test Equipment, Embedded Instrumentation Communication Interfaces, Educational 802.3 Network Lab Kits.
10BASE2 / 10BASE5 Ethernet Adapter Cards
The DP83910AN is the controller-side companion to a coax transceiver such as the DP8392 in legacy 10 Mb/s Ethernet adapter cards. With a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply and 10 Mb/s Manchester encode/decode, it provides clock recovery, jabber detection, and link-test signalling required by IEEE 802.3. Direct CMOS replacement for the bipolar DP8391 keeps board rework zero for retrofit designs.
Empfohlen
Industrial SCADA / Factory Network Controllers
Long-life industrial SCADA controllers and CNC automation rely on 10 Mb/s 802.3 for plant-floor networking, and the DP83910AN's mature CMOS SNI design is qualified for decades of field operation. The 24-DIP through-hole package survives high-vibration assembly where fine-pitch PLCC would risk cracked solder joints. Combined with a DP8392 coax transceiver it forms a complete, robust serial network.
Empfohlen
Legacy Network Hardware Restoration
Vintage networking routers, bridges, and terminal-server repairs frequently require an exact-match 24-DIP SNI; the DP83910AN provides the modern CMOS equivalent of the original bipolar part, reducing operating heat and extending MTBF in restored gear. Designers can use the DP83910AN to replace a failed DP8391 with no layout change. This preserves expensive legacy enclosures and backplane wiring.
Empfohlen
IEEE 802.3 Physical-Layer Test Equipment
Test-and-measurement vendors build IEEE 802.3 physical-layer compliance fixtures using reference SNI devices; the DP83910AN's CMOS process provides predictable loopback behaviour and jabber timing for golden-unit baselines. Its 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply range matches bench-top +5V power rails without extra regulation. Engineers can pair it with the DP8392 to emulate a complete cable-end interface.
Empfohlen
Embedded Instrumentation Communication Interfaces
Embedded instrumentation that needs 10 Mb/s Ethernet transport to a host (for example, protocol analyzers or 1990s-vintage logic analyzers) can use the DP83910AN as the SNI between on-board digital logic and a coax transceiver. The CMOS construction reduces the +5V rail load versus the original bipolar DP8391, allowing tighter power budgets in compact instrumentation. With the correct DP8392 companion, the system transmits full IEEE 802.3 frames.
Empfohlen
Educational 802.3 Network Lab Kits
University networking laboratories that teach the IEEE 802.3 physical-layer can use the DP83910AN with the DP8392 coax transceiver to demonstrate Manchester encoding, CSMA/CD collision detection, and link-test pulse generation. Its 24-DIP package is easier for students to breadboard than fine-pitch alternatives. Combined with a +5V supply and discrete LEDs, instructors can visualize each layer-1 signal in real time.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale
- CMOS low-power replacement for the original bipolar DP8391 SNI (vs. DP8391N)
- Through-hole DIP for retrofit and lab work (vs. DP83910AV/NOPB)
- Established dual-source design family (vs. DP83910AV)
Designhinweise
The DP83910AN operates from a single +5 V (4.75 V to 5.25 V) supply and requires local 0.1 uF ceramic decoupling close to each VCC pin (pins 14 and 24 on the 24-DIP) to keep the integrated PLL free of supply-induced jitter. Bulk decoupling of 10 uF tantalum at the board's regulator output is also recommended. Because the part is CMOS, inrush current is low and separate analog/digital rails are not required, but keep noisy switching converters physically away from the X1/X2 crystal traces.
Route the 10 MHz X1/X2 crystal traces short and surrounded by GND to avoid stray pick-up; keep TX+/TX- and RX+/RX- differential pairs matched-length to within 5 mm so the Manchester decoder stays within IEEE 802.3 jitter tolerance. Place the coax termination resistor at the DP8392 transceiver end, not at the DP83910AN, to limit reflections on 10BASE2/10BASE5 cable. Pin 12 is the primary GND - use a single ground plane stitch under the DIP for thermal and EMI benefit.
Do not assume any new-production stock for DP83910AN because the part is obsolete per distributor data on 2026-10-22; verify distributor stock before committing to a long-life design. Watch for the lead-free (-NOPB) versus original leaded part, and note that a 28-PLCC labelled as 'equivalent' (DP83910AV) is NOT a board-level drop-in for the 24-DIP DP83910AN because the pin count and footprint differ - that is a redesign, not a swap.
Compliance-Informationen
Original DP83910AN is lead-bearing per distributor listings; lead-free / RoHS-compliant option is the DP83910AV/NOPB (different 28-PLCC package). Full RoHS/REACH compliance data was not present in the verified web sources for the original DP83910AN.
