Network Activity Indicator – FT Router
5000

The FT Router 5000 provides two network indicator pins, RXON and TXON,

that you can connect to LEDs to show network activity, as shown in Figure 21.
You can optionally add pulse-stretching circuits to increase the visibility of the

LEDs, although they are likely visible enough without pulse stretching. Also,

because the RXON and TXON pins are not directly involved in communications,

you do not need to add buffers.

router.

RTR-10 Power Requirements

An RTR-10 router requires a +5 VDC ±10% at 200 mA.

Series 5000 Router Power Requirements

A Series 5000 router chip requires a +3.3 VDC power source with sufficient

current to power the chip in all modes of operation.
The supply current requirements for the Series 5000 router chip are outlined in

Table 12, including typical requirements for the different operating states of the

Router 5000 at various system clock rates.
Important: Although general Series 5000 chips support 80 MHz operations,

neither the Router 5000 chip nor the FT Router 5000 chip supports this system

clock setting.
