Running chips without MagJack attached

Hello, will WIZnet TCP/IP device damage or degrade if it will be running without MagJack attached (without a load on its PHY output) for a while?
To be precise I use W5100. I am having other components on the board to troubleshoot, but did not solder MagJack because it did not arrive yet.
Please advise.
Thank you.

Hi.

TCP/IP device is Not damage without PHY and Magjack.

But, caution !

What kind using the chip?

refer to bellow W5500 reference circuit and check to Wizwiki.net (forum site)

wizwiki.net/wiki/doku.php?id=pro … fschematic

Thank you

Thank you.

W5100

Which caution?

Caution is schematic design.

You design correct circuit, otherwise dangerous.

So, refer to below site

wiznet.co.kr/product-item/w5100/

check the HW Design Guide Tap.

It is W5100 Reference circuit.

Thank you

Edward, you seem to answer different question.

Assume that schematic is fully correct, but I do not solder MagJack connector. Is there any danger?

It is not danger.

Just RJ-45 and Transformer use reason is communication to other peer.

you just checking phy signal? It is not danger

thank you

Thank you.
