New Gigabit Ethernet Switch with AVB/TSN and Integrated PHYs for Industrial Automation
22 Agosto 2023 - 9:00AM
Industrial automation and digital transformation are driving market
growth for scalable and standardized networking solutions to
address the needs of commercial Operational Technology (OT)
deployments. To provide automation manufacturers with a
comprehensive networking solution, Microchip Technology
(Nasdaq: MCHP) today announces the
LAN9662
Gigabit Ethernet Switch with four ports, Audio-Video
Bridging and Time Sensitive Network (AVB/TSN), two integrated
10/100/1000BASE-T PHYs and a 600 MHz Arm® Cortex®-A7 CPU subsystem.
To support industrial Ethernet applications, the LAN9662
features a Real-Time Engine (RTE) that provides the ability to
modify the Ethernet frame in flight, enabling faster cyclical data
rates and low latency. The LAN9662 is compliant with key industry
standards such as the OPC Unified Architecture (OPC/UA) and
PROFINET software stack, offering deterministic communication
capabilities necessary for industrial networking applications.
“Expanding on the LAN966x family, the LAN9662 opens a path to
scale with TSN-enabled networking endpoints,” said Charles Forni,
vice president of Microchip’s USB and networking business unit.
“Our solutions offer customers the advantage of starting their
designs with industry standards met, supported by a comprehensive
software portfolio.”
With two integrated PHYs, the LAN9662 provides extremely low
latency to support various daisy chain topologies. The PHY
interfaces enable fast data processing within a specified time to
provide a reliable network for automation applications such as
motor, conveyor and multi-axis robot controllers.
The LAN9662 supports up to two RGMII/RMII, up to two
1000BASE-X/SerDes/2.5GBASE-X/KX, and a Quad-SGMII/Quad-USGMII
interface. The configurable interfaces allow designers to reach
various types of physical layers or interconnects they may
require.
Microchip is an established supplier of industrial-grade
networking solutions, offering a broad portfolio of robust, energy
efficient and highly integrated products with deterministic
switching and fault-tolerant redundancy. Its products significantly
reduce the complexity and overhead of deploying Ethernet across a
variety of industrial applications. To learn more about Microchip’s
