Selection of Isolation Transformers
(1)
One simple 1:1 isolation transformer is needed at the line interface. An isolation transformer with integrated common-
mode choke is recommended for exceeding FCC requirements. The following table gives recommended transformer
characteristics.
Parameter Value Test Condition

Insertion loss (max) 1.0dB 0MHz – 65MHz
HIPOT (min) 1500Vrms
Note:
1. The IEEE 802.3u standard for 100BASE-TX assumes a transformer loss of 0.5dB. For the transmit line transformer, insertion loss of up to 1.3dB
can be compensated or by increasing the line drive current by means of reducing the ISET resistor value. Please select the transformer that
supports auto-MDI/MDI-X.
