The STE100P, also referred to as STEPHY1, is a high performance Fast Ethernet physical layer interface for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX applications.
●It was designed with advanced CMOS technology to provide a Media Independent Interface (MII) for easy attachment to 10/100 Media Access Controllers (MAC) and a physical media interface for 100Base-TX of IEEE802.3u and 10Base-T of IEEE802.3.
●The STEPHY1 supports both half-duplex and full-duplex operation, at 10 and 100 Mbps operation. Its operating mode can be set using auto-negotiation, parallel detection or manual control. It also allows for the support of auto-negotiation functions for speed and duplex detection.

● LED DisplayThe LED display, consists of five LEDs having the following characteristics:10 Mbps Speed LED: 10Mbps(on) or 100Mbps(off)100 Mbps Speed LED: 100Mbps(on) or 10Mbps(off)TX/RX Activity LED: Blinks at 10Hz when receiving, but not collidingLink LED: On when a good link is detected, blinks when there is TX or RX activityFull Duplex / Collision LED: On during Full Duplex operation. Blinks at 20Hz to indicate a collision
