[REQUEST] LAN8720 support #495

Open zuidwijk opened 4 years ago

zuidwijk commented 4 years ago

Hi, I know it is a serial-wifi bridge. Yet I wonder if it is possible to use a LAN8720 ethernet module and create a serial-ethernet bridge?

Is there, or will there be any support for LAN8720?

Ethernet to serial bridge would be great ! In my case for a klipper on ethernet bridge.

Just wanted to let you know, there are other options until this happens

First, LAN8720 is not the only good ethernet chip is wide and cheap circulation. ENC28J60 and W5500 are also good candidate.

In fact, it seems at just 1-2$ dolar more the 4-5$ W5500 appears to have a full on hardware tcpip stack with an SPI port, seems to be the easiest one to use.

Also there are hardware direct ethernet to serial chip such as the 920kilobaud capable CH9121
