Microchip Introduces Its First Automotive-Qualified 10BASE-T1S Ethernet Devices
13 Julho 2023 - 9:00AM
Automotive designers are looking to replace legacy gateway
subsystems with technology that can migrate applications to an
Ethernet network to easily access information from the edge to the
cloud. To provide OEMs with automotive-qualified Ethernet
solutions, Microchip Technology
(Nasdaq: MCHP)
today announces its first automotive-qualified Ethernet PHYs. This
family of 10BASE-T1S devices with AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification
includes the
LAN8670, LAN8671 and LAN8672.
The LAN8670/1/2 10BASE-T1S Ethernet PHYs are
functional safety ready and designed for use in ISO 26262
applications. These devices now make it possible to connect
low-speed devices that previously required their own communication
systems into a standard Ethernet system in automotive
applications.
“Microchip continues to prioritize connectivity
solutions for the automotive industry with the expansion of its
line of 10BASE-T1S products,” said Matthias Kaestner, vice
president of Microchip’s automotive products business unit. “This
new technology will connect the sensors and actuators used in the
physical world all the way to the cloud, and it will enable a
seamless Ethernet architecture everywhere.”
The ability to connect multiple Ethernet PHYs to a
common bus line makes it simpler to implement automotive
applications on a single, well-known architecture and saves
implementation costs by reducing cabling and switch ports. The
LAN8670/1/2 enables the network edges to use Ethernet and Internet
Protocol (IP) to easily communicate with the rest of the network
infrastructure. These devices include advanced PHY diagnostics to
provide the user with troubleshooting capabilities. In addition,
sleep/wake functionality allows for low-power modes.
The 10BASE-T1S device specifications include 10
Mbps, half-duplex mode, flexible topology with multidrop bus line
and point-to-point and use a single balanced pair of conductors.
These devices also feature enhanced electromagnetic
compatibility/electromagnetic interference (EMC/EMI) performance.
Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) support allows for synchronized
timing across far-reaching Ethernet networks. Time synchronization
is critical for many applications throughout automotive zonal
architectures.
Microchip was a key contributor in the development
of the standards with IEEE for the automotive-qualified 10BASE-T1S
technology. This technology simplifies system design by expanding
the reach of Ethernet to the devices that are typically at the very
edge of the network.
Development Tools
The LAN8670/1/2 10BASE-T1S Ethernet PHYs are
supported with the EVB-LAN8670-RMII,
EVB-LAN8670-USB and
MPLAB® Harmony
v3.
Pricing and Availability
These devices are available to purchase now.
