Title: serial to Ethernet IC
Post by: alamwte on April 13, 2021, 08:24:34 am
Hi,

I am looking for an IC that convert serial to Ethernet , and be under the web.
But I can not find anything.

Would you introduce me an IC ?

I have no IC to show you, but a module that just do that. it can do a lot more as it has an esp32 inside.

Never heard of such a thing.
General solution would be a microcontroller with Ethernet controller and serial port(s). Plenty of those around, but you'll need one with well-supported TCP/IP stack (if you're lucky, it might be free).

I bought some of these off of ebay already on a breakout board.  I've never used them though.

Lantronix has few products which are in size of Ethernet jack. Expensive ~70USD, but nice black box solution. Lantronix also has driver for windows to make it look like a serial port.

There will be no off the self single chip solution. you can make one in few hours. Take any Ethernet dev board may be microchip or even a Raspberry, have socket open on Ethernet and use a serial port to push data in and out of socket. Make it appear like a serial port in windows would need a driver. Doing custom driver in Windows is hard.

I used to use the ENC28J60 a lot with some small 8bit PICs. Seemed to work great but I wasn't sending a lot of data back and forth. Just about a dozen uint16s every 100ms.
