2.9 Ethernet Controller Specifications

2.9.1 Overview

The Realtek RTL8100C(L) is a highly integrated and cost-effective single-chip Fast

Ethernet controller. It is enhanced with an ACPI (Advanced Configuration Power Interface)

management function for PCI in order to provide efficient power management for

advanced operating systems with OSPM (Operating System Directed Power

Management).

The RTL8100C(L) also supports remote wake-up (including AMD Magic Packet™ and

Microsoft® Wake-up frame) to increase cost-efficiency in network maintenance and

management. It is an ideal solution for notebook/motherboard-embedded network

designs.
