Compact Design
By using only one pair of wires, the number of passive components on the PCB is considerably reduced. Together with the very compact connector, Single Pair Ethernet can save up to 75% PCB space compared to current Ethernet over RJ45.
Single Pair Ethernet
Single Pair Ethernet embodies a new type of data transmission. Contrary to Multipair Ethernet, only two wires are needed. The small number of wires ensures thinner cable diameters and reduces cost.
But what does this mean for the circuit on the PCB?
Insulation voltage according to IEC 62368-1
Similar to Ethernet over four-pair wires, isolation in accordance with IEC 62368-1 (formerly IEC 60950) is also specified for Single Pair Ethernet. Capacitors with 50 Volt galvanic isolation apply almost exclusively to automotive Ethernet applications and are not sufficient for industrial applications.
The good news is that the electrical isolation in Single Pair Ethernet can be easily solved by a signal transformer. Wurth Elektronik's WE-STST transformer series combines excellent performance with a very compact size of only 4.5 x 3.2 mm.
Through connection of the center tap to GND, common mode signals are also effectively attenuated

Additional EMI and ESD protection
In addition to the transformer (74930000), a common mode choke (744232222) improves the EMI behavior even at frequencies from 1 MHz without negatively affecting the data signal. The TVS diode (824012823) provides ESD protection according to IEC 61000-4-2 up to 8 kV.
