LAN8670/1/2 Family of 10BASE-T1S PHYs
The Microchip LAN8670, LAN8671 and LAN8672 Ethernet PHY and Ethernet Physical Layer (PHY) transceivers are high-performance, small-footprint devices enabling connections to standard systems of low-speed devices, including sensors and actuators, that previously required their own communication systems.
You can use this family of products to expand all-Ethernet infrastructures in most OT, IT and automotive systems to the edges of the network. These devices eliminate the need for gateways that were previously needed to interconnect incompatible communication systems. The single pair of wires reduces cost, while the multidrop bus architecture reduces the need for switch ports and enhances scalability. Several nodes can operate on the same bus line with high data throughput.
Key Highlights - Ethernet Architecture All the Way to the Edge of the Network
- Consolidates a variety of buses that require specialized electrical interfaces, specialized protocols and custom software stacks
- Eliminates the need for gateways to move data to various levels of the network architecture
- Provides for scalable bandwidth
- Uses widely deployed and proven security methods where needed
- Multidrop Bus
- Reduces the number of switch ports
- Requires fewer cables, connectors and PHYs
- MII or RMII Interfaces
- Attach to a variety of microprocessors (MPUs), microcontrollers (MCUs) and switches
Key Applications - Automotive and industrial zonal architectures
- In-vehicle networks
- Sensor/actuator networks operating at high bandwidth
- Industrial control cabinets and machine control
- Factory, process and building automation
- Consolidation of multiple buses (field buses, CAN, RS-485 and more) into an Ethernet architecture
