Realtek RTL8186 Die Shot (WiFi/Etherner Controller)

Thanks to Martijn Boer for providing this chip!

 

Datasheet: datasheetspdf.com/pdf-file/638829/Realtek/RTL8186/1

 

This is the controller from a WiFi/Ethernet access point. It has an embedded Lexra LX5280 32-bit RISC CPU.

 

I was surprised by the colors this one gave off under side illumination, so I decided to use that rather than the matealurgical light source.
