Product details
Overview
DP83826ERHBT from Texas Instruments is a deterministic, low-latency 10/100 Mbps industrial Ethernet PHY with TX latency of 40 ns and RX latency of 170 ns, ±2 ns latency stability over power cycles, and support for MII/RMII MAC interfaces. It operates across –40°C to 105°C and meets IEEE 802.3 (10BASE-Te, 100BASE-TX) and EtherCAT® standards for real-time factory automation and motion control systems.
For engineers reviewing the DP83826ERHBT datasheet, DP83826ERHBT pinout, DP83826ERHBT application, or DP83826ERHBT equivalent, key selection criteria include deterministic latency performance, dual-mode pin configuration (BASIC/ENHANCED), integrated EMC robustness (IEC 61000-4-2 ±8 kV contact), RMII back-to-back repeater capability, and programmable energy-saving modes including EEE (IEEE 802.3az) and Wake-on-LAN.
Technical Context
The DP83826ERHBT implements a hardware-strapped dual-mode architecture: BASIC mode delivers standard Ethernet pin compatibility and speed/duplex bootstrap control, while ENHANCED mode enables real-time features including strap-controllable fast link-drop detection, Auto-MDIX, RMII repeater configuration, and fixed-phase XI-to-TX_CLK timing (<±2 ns). Both modes share identical 32-pin VQFN (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm) packaging and single 3.3 V analog supply.
Its physical layer supports voltage-mode line driving with integrated MDI terminations, cable reach >150 m, and I/O voltage flexibility (1.8 V or 3.3 V). Diagnostic capabilities include cable diagnostics, BIST, and multiple loopback modes - all accessible via SMI (MDC/MDIO) register interface without host CPU intervention.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

Pinout & Package
DP83826ERHBT uses a 32-pin VQFN package (RHB suffix), 5.00 mm × 5.00 mm body size, with exposed thermal pad connected to GND. Pin functions differ between BASIC and ENHANCED modes; ModeSelect (Pin 1) configures mode at power-up (GND = BASIC, NC/pull-up = ENHANCED).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ModeSelect (Pin 1) | Mode configuration input | Determines BASIC (GND) or ENHANCED (NC/pull-up) operation - affects pin mapping and feature availability. |
| RX_D[3:0] / RX_D[1:0] | Receive data bus | MII: 4-bit parallel nibble synchronous to RX_CLK; RMII: 2-bit parallel synchronous to 50 MHz reference clock. |
| TX_CLK / RX_CLK | MAC timing reference | MII: 25 MHz (100 Mbps) or 2.5 MHz (10 Mbps); RMII leader: 50 MHz output; RMII follower: input not used. |
| PWRDN/INT (Pin 21, ENHANCED) | Power-down/interrupt dual-function | Default = active-low power-down; configurable as open-drain interrupt with internal 9.5 kΩ pull-up. |
| CLKOUT/LED1 (Pin 31, ENHANCED) | Reference clock output / LED driver | 25 MHz clock derived from XI, unaffected by resets; can be reconfigured as LED1 indicating 100 Mbps link status. |
| LED0 (Pin 30) | Link/activity indicator | Auto-detects polarity (active-high/low); ON = good link, blinking = TX/RX activity - requires no external biasing resistors. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Deterministic latency | Fixed TX/RX latency with ±2 ns variation across power cycles - eliminates jitter-induced timing violations in synchronized motion control. |
| Dual-mode pin configuration | BASIC mode matches legacy PHY pinouts for drop-in replacement; ENHANCED mode unlocks real-time fieldbus features via hardware straps. |
| Integrated EMC protection | Meets IEC 61000-4-2 (±8 kV contact), IEC 61000-4-4 (±4 kV), and CISPR 22 Class B - reduces board-level filtering components by up to 30%. |
| RMII back-to-back repeater mode | Enables daisy-chained topology without external switch ICs - lowers BOM cost and PCB area in multi-node sensor networks. |
| Fast link-drop detection | <10 µs response time - critical for fault-tolerant EtherCAT® ring topologies requiring rapid reconvergence. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Ethernet PHY applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DP83822HFRTVT | Supports RGMII interface and fiber media; wider temperature range (–40°C to 105°C); same 32-pin VQFN package. | Targeted at higher-bandwidth industrial gateways requiring RGMII-to-100BASE-TX bridging. | Select when RGMII host interface or multimode fiber uplink is required; not pin-compatible due to differing pin functions. |
| LAN8720AI-CP | Single 3.3 V supply; lower power (~120 mW); no ENHANCED mode or deterministic latency specs; QFN-24 package. | Suitable for cost-sensitive building automation where latency determinism is not required. | Choose for simpler, lower-cost deployments lacking real-time fieldbus requirements; requires PCB redesign due to 24-pin footprint. |
Compared with DP83826ERHBT, DP83822HFRTVT adds RGMII and fiber support but lacks BASIC/ENHANCED mode flexibility, while LAN8720AI-CP offers lower cost and power at the expense of latency control, EMC robustness, and industrial temperature rating.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for DP83826ERHBT?
The DP83826ERHBT is rated for –40°C to 105°C, matching the DP83826E industrial grade specification. This extended range ensures reliable operation in demanding environments such as motor drive enclosures, outdoor grid monitoring units, and high-temperature factory floors - unlike commercial-grade PHYs limited to 0°C–70°C.
Does DP83826ERHBT support both MII and RMII interfaces?
Yes, DP83826ERHBT natively supports both MII and RMII MAC interfaces. In MII mode, it uses 25 MHz/2.5 MHz clocks and 4-bit data paths; in RMII mode, it operates at 50 MHz with 2-bit data paths and supports leader/follower configurations - including RMII back-to-back repeater mode, which is configurable only in ENHANCED mode.
How does the BASIC vs. ENHANCED mode selection affect DP83826ERHBT functionality?
Mode selection on DP83826ERHBT is controlled by ModeSelect (Pin 1): GND enables BASIC mode (standard Ethernet pinout, speed/duplex strapping), while NC or pull-up enables ENHANCED mode (additional real-time features like strap-controllable fast link-drop, Auto-MDIX, and RMII repeater mode). Pin functions differ - e.g., Pin 21 is INT in BASIC but PWRDN/INT in ENHANCED; Pin 31 is LED1/TX_ER in BASIC but CLKOUT/LED1 in ENHANCED.
What EMC standards does DP83826ERHBT meet out-of-the-box?
DP83826ERHBT meets IEC 61000-4-2 (±8 kV contact, ±15 kV air), IEC 61000-4-4 (±4 kV EFT), and CISPR 22 Class B emissions without external filtering. Its integrated circuitry for enhanced EMC reduces system-level design effort - enabling compliance in industrial enclosures where space and cost constraints limit use of external ferrites or shielded magnetics.
Can DP83826ERHBT operate with a 1.8 V I/O supply?
Yes, DP83826ERHBT supports dual I/O voltage operation: VDDIO may be set to either 1.8 V or 3.3 V, allowing direct interfacing with low-voltage microcontrollers and FPGAs. When using 1.8 V, all digital I/O pins (TX_EN, RX_D[3:0], MDIO, etc.) and XI oscillator input must be within 1.62–1.98 V - verified per TI's Recommended Operating Conditions table in the DP83826ERHBT datasheet.
