Hi,
We are interested to use the X540 Twinville Dual Port 10GbE MAC/PHY in our application. The marketing data sheet
Intel® Ethernet Controllers and PHYs
lists the operating temperature at 0-55C. Yet the data sheet
http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/datasheets/ethernet-x540-datasheet.pdf
on pg 1188 lists a maximum case temperature of Tcase Max = 107C.
Please elaborate on the difference and meaning between these two figures. We need the 0-70C temperature range if we are to use this part.
Thank you.
