In summary, The NCN26010 device is an IEEE 802.3cg compliant Ethernet transceiver including a media access controller (MAC), a PLCA reconciliation sublayer (RS), and a 10BASE−T1S PHY designed for industrial multi-drop Ethernet. It provides all physical layer functions needed to transmit and receive data over a single unshielded twisted pair. NCN26010 communicates to host MCUs via Open Alliance MACPHY SPI protocol.
