LAN8720AI-CP-TR-ABC is a Microchip LAN8720A 10/100 Ethernet PHY transceiver with MII/RMII interface support, industrial temperature range, QFN package, and tape-and-reel packaging. It is functionally equivalent to LAN8720AI-CP-TR for most sourcing and replacement purposes, subject to final datasheet and ordering-code verification.
Part number breakdown:
- LAN8720A: 10/100 Ethernet PHY transceiver family
- I: Industrial temperature range, typically -40°C to +85°C
- CP: QFN package option
- TR: Tape and reel packaging
- ABC: Ordering/channel suffix, not normally a separate functional specification
Sourcing tip:
If the customer inquiry, supplier label, or invoice shows LAN8720AI-CP-TR-ABC, list the product under the full part number LAN8720AI-CP-TR-ABC and mention LAN8720AI-CP-TR as a related/base ordering code.

LAN8720AI-CP-TR, LAN8720AI-CP-TR-ABC, LAN8720A-CP-ABC, and LAN8720AI-CP-ABC all belong to Microchip’s LAN8720A 10/100 Ethernet PHY transceiver family. The main selection differences are usually the temperature grade, package/order suffix, and packaging format rather than the Ethernet PHY function itself. LAN8720AI versions indicate the industrial-temperature option, making them more suitable for industrial or extended-temperature embedded designs. LAN8720A-CP-ABC may represent the base commercial-grade ordering version, while TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging for automated production. For new designs or replacements, match the full ordering code, temperature range, package type, and packaging requirement before substitution.
