WIZ850io
WIZ850io

The WIZ850io is a compact network module that integrates the W5500 hardwired TCP/IP chip with a built-in PHY, transformer, and RJ45 MAG-JACK.
It is fully compatible with WIZ820io hardware, providing developers with a seamless upgrade path and faster network performance.
Ideal for rapid prototyping and Internet-enabled embedded systems, it requires no additional interface design between the W5500 and transformer.
