Routers, switches, and line cards need higher bandwidth, port density, and up to 800-gigabit Ethernet (GbE) connectivity to handle escalating data-center traffic driven by 5G, cloud services and artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications. To deliver the higher bandwidth, these designs need to overcome the signal integrity challenges associated with the industry’s transition…
Microchip’s new Ethernet PHYs enable multi-drop bus architecture
Smart manufacturing is driving efficiencies in automation as digital networks increasingly connect machines, production line equipment, and robotics. Operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) networks that are critical to the industrial internet of things (IIoT) rely on Ethernet for interoperability and to speed data transmission and ensure security. Microchip Technology‘s new LAN867x family of…
