PI ZERO/ZERO W ENC28J60 Internet Module Supporting all RPI Board

The ENC28J60 Ethernet Module is a board that includes an Ethernet port. It is built around Microchip’s ENC28J60 integrated circuit and enables internet connectivity for the Raspberry Pi Zero via Ethernet.

Featuring the new SSOP 12 package, the Microchip ENC28J60 Stand-Alone Ethernet Controller IC comes with a comprehensive set of features to meet the majority of network protocol requirements. The board is designed for a direct connection to the Raspberry Pi Zero.

This module provides everything necessary to transform your Raspberry Pi into an Ethernet-enabled device within your network. While many makers today lean towards WiFi for network communication, Ethernet remains a reliable and swift method for connecting to network devices.

The ENC28J60 consists of seven major functional blocks:

1. Equips control registers for controlling and monitoring the ENC28J60.
2. A dual-port RAM buffer for received and transmitted data packets.
3. An arbiter to control the access to the RAM buffer when requests are made from DMA, transmit and receive blocks.
4. The MAC (Medium Access Control) module that implements the IEEE 802.3 compliant MAC logic.
5. The PHY (Physical Layer) module that encodes and decodes the analog data that is present on the twisted-pair interface.

• HanRun HR911105A Port: Integrated RJ45 jack with magnetics for plug-and-play Ethernet connection.
• 3.3V Logic and Power: Directly interfaces with Raspberry Pi GPIO without additional level shifting.
• 25MHz Crystal Oscillator: Ensures stable clock reference and reliable data transfer at 10/100Mbps.
• Wide Compatibility: Works with Raspberry Pi Zero, Zero W and any Pi board exposing SPI pins.
• Fast Shipping from Zbotic: Ready to dispatch across India within 24 hours with tracking.

Applications and Use Cases

• Adding wired Ethernet to headless Raspberry Pi Zero/Zero W projects for stable remote access.
• Industrial control and automation systems requiring reliable, low-latency network links.
• Home server or media player setups where Wi-Fi coverage is insufficient or unstable.
• IoT gateways that aggregate sensor data over Ethernet before forwarding to the cloud.
• Education and prototyping environments teaching SPI-to-Ethernet interfaces.
• Clustered Raspberry Pi projects needing consistent network performance.

How to Use PI ZERO/ZERO W ENC28J60 Internet Module Supporting all RPI

Enable SPI on your Raspberry Pi via raspi-config, then plug the ENC28J60 module into the GPIO header so that MOSI, MISO, SCLK, CS, 3.3V and GND pins align. Install the Linux kernel driver (sudo modprobe enc28j60), configure /etc/network/interfaces or dhcpcd.conf for eth0, and reboot. After startup, your Pi will obtain an IP address over Ethernet for wired network access.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Which Raspberry Pi models are supported by this ENC28J60 module?

This module is designed for Raspberry Pi Zero and Zero W but also works with any Raspberry Pi board that provides a 3.3V SPI interface (e.g., Pi 2, 3, 4, and Compute Modules) by mapping MOSI, MISO, SCLK, CS, 3.3V and GND pins.

2. Do I need a level shifter to connect the module to Raspberry Pi GPIO?

No level shifter is required. The ENC28J60 interface operates at 3.3V logic, matching the Pi’s GPIO voltage and ensuring direct, safe connection.

3. How do I install and configure the ENC28J60 driver on Raspberry Pi?

First, enable SPI via sudo raspi-config. Then load the module with sudo modprobe enc28j60, add a network section for eth0 in /etc/dhcpcd.conf or /etc/network/interfaces, and reboot. The Pi will then obtain an IP address over Ethernet.
