W5500 from WIZNET, in a LQFP-48(7x7). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | TXN | output | TXP/TXN differential transmit signal pair to the media (Ethernet magnetics). Analog output. |
| 2 | TXP | output | TXP/TXN differential transmit signal pair to the media (Ethernet magnetics). Analog output. |
| 3 | AGND | power_in | Analog ground. |
| 4 | AVDD | power_in | Analog 3.3V power supply. |
| 5 | RXN | input | RXP/RXN differential receive signal pair from the media. Analog input. |
| 6 | RXP | input | RXP/RXN differential receive signal pair from the media. Analog input. |
| 7 | DNC | unconnected | Do Not Connect pin. Leave unconnected on the PCB. |
| 8 | AVDD | power_in | Analog 3.3V power supply. |
| 9 | AGND | power_in | Analog ground. |
| 10 | EXRES1 | passive | External reference resistor pin. Connect a 12.4 kΩ, 1% resistor from this pin to analog ground (AGND) to bias internal analog circuits. |
| 11 | AVDD | power_in | Analog 3.3V power supply. |
| 12 | NC | unconnected | Not connected. Leave floating. |
| 13 | NC | unconnected | Not connected. Leave floating. |
| 14 | AGND | power_in | Analog ground. |
| 15 | AVDD | power_in | Analog 3.3V power supply. |
| 16 | AGND | power_in | Analog ground. |
| 17 | AVDD | power_in | Analog 3.3V power supply. |
| 18 | VBG | output | Band-gap output voltage; measures ~1.2V at 25°C. Must be left floating. |
| 19 | AGND | power_in | Analog ground. |
| 20 | TOCAP | passive | External reference capacitor pin. Connect a 4.7 µF capacitor to ground with a short trace to stabilize internal analog signals. |
| 21 | AVDD | power_in | Analog 3.3V power supply. |
| 22 | 1V2O | power_out | 1.2V internal regulator output. Must be connected to a 10 nF decoupling capacitor to ground. |
| 23 | RSVD | input | Reserved pin. Must be tied to GND. Internal pull-down. |
| 24 | SPDLED | output | Speed status LED. Low = 100 Mbps link, High = 10 Mbps link. |
| 25 | LINKLED | output | Link status LED. Low = link established, High = link not established. |
| 26 | DUPLED | output | Duplex status LED. Low = full-duplex, High = half-duplex. |
| 27 | ACTLED | output | Activity LED, driven low when carrier sense (CRS) is detected from the active PMD during TX or RX activity. |
| 28 | VDD | power_in | Digital 3.3V power supply. |
| 29 | GND | power_in | Digital ground. |
| 30 | XI/CLKIN | input | Crystal input for a 25 MHz crystal or single-ended TTL clock input (3.3V). When driven by an external clock, XO must be left unconnected. |
| 31 | XO | output | 25 MHz crystal output. Float this pin if driving XI/CLKIN with an external oscillator. |
| 32 | SCSn | input | SPI chip-select (active low). Assert low to select the W5500 on the SPI bus. Internal pull-up. |
| 33 | SCLK | input | SPI clock input from the SPI master. Supports up to 80 MHz. |
| 34 | MISO | tri_state | SPI master-in / slave-out (W5500 data output). Drives data when SCSn is low; high-impedance when SCSn is high. |
| 35 | MOSI | input | SPI master-out / slave-in (W5500 data input) from the SPI master. |
| 36 | INTn | output | Interrupt output (active low). Low = interrupt asserted from W5500; High = no interrupt. |
| 37 | RSTn | input | Hardware reset input (active low). Must be held low for at least 500 µs to reset the W5500. Internal pull-up. |
| 38 | RSVD | input | Reserved pin (internal pull-down). Marked NC; leave unconnected. |
| 39 | RSVD | input | Reserved pin (internal pull-down). Marked NC; leave unconnected. |
| 40 | RSVD | input | Reserved pin (internal pull-down). Marked NC; leave unconnected. |
| 41 | RSVD | input | Reserved pin (internal pull-down). Marked NC; leave unconnected. |
| 42 | RSVD | input | Reserved pin (internal pull-down). Marked NC; leave unconnected. |
| 43 | PMODE2 | input | PHY operation mode select bit 2. PMODE[2:0] selects speed/duplex and auto-negotiation configuration (e.g. 111 = all-capable auto-negotiation enabled). Internal pull-up. |
| 44 | PMODE1 | input | PHY operation mode select bit 1. See PMODE[2:0] table for supported 10BT/100BT and auto-negotiation combinations. Internal pull-up. |

3D model downloads
Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:
| File | Size | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
w5500.step |
617 KB | You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards. |
w5500-etched.step |
3.5 MB | You want the part with W5500 already on it. |
The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 884 faces against 747 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
