Why is Ethernet So Power Hungry?

I was just perusing the Microchip ENC28J60 Ethernet Controller datasheet and saw that the operating current can be as high as 180mA while transmitting and 120 mA typical while active but not transmitting. At 3.3V we're talking 400 to 600 mW of…

LPC1788 reading via SPI from ENC28J60

I have a problem with SPI communication with ENC28J60 chip. Basically I can't use SSP in SPI mode as it is, because ENC28J60 expects CS to be low for multiple bytes while SSP shifts it high after each byte transmitted. To overcome this, I have GPIO…

Did I Kill My Chip?

I've got an ENC28J60 Ethernet Controller in a circuit I'm building. I was testing it out but when I got to the point of talking to it over SPI with my micro-controller I got utter silence back from the device. I got a 'scope out and sure enough,…

Linux enc28j60 driver always times out on transmit

I've wired up an ENC28J60 module with an SPI interface to a Beaglebone Black development board running Linux 3.8, but I cannot get the device to TX (or RX) anything. Every attempt to TX times out and increments the TX errors. Originally, the driver…

How to get an ENC28J60 to work?

For starters: Yes I know I'm about to reinvent the wheel with the following task ahead. I want to create my own library for the ENC28J60 for an AVR (ATMEGA1284P). So I've been browsing the net for months now made fairly good progress, but now I'm…

DHCP with ENC28J60 on PowerLine Adaptors

I have a board based on an Atmega328 and an ENC28J60 which uses uIP. When the board is connected to the network via a switch it can acquire an address via DHCP faultlessly. The DISCOVER, OFFER, REQUEST and ACKs come through fine. When it is then…

Hot ENC28J60 @ 132 mW

I have a problem with a relatively simple board which consists of an ENC28J60 Ethernet controller and an ATmega168. The circuit around the ENC28J60 is straight out of the datasheet and I have the same circuit built up in a prototype with DIP parts…

Ethernet shield (ENC28J60) design troubles

I made a through-hole shield based on the ENC28J60, but I haven't had luck getting the device to do anything at all. At this point I'm afraid I'm in over my head. I've spent some time reading the data sheet and clumsily poking at it with my bus…

When connecting to Ethernet through ENC28J60, why use ATmega88 instead of ATmega8?

I know the general differences between ATmegaX8 family (ATmega88, ATmega168, and ATmega328) and the ATmegaX family (ATmega8, ATmega16, and ATmega32). But I'm confused, as when I intended to work on a project to connect the ATmega8 to Ethernet using…
