Texas Instruments Inc. claims its new automotive Ethernet physical layer transceiver is smaller, lighter and more efficient than similar systems being developed by competitors.
The integrated design cuts the number of external components and board space in half, according to the supplier. The transceiver consumes half the power of other systems, which TI says minimizes thermal dissipation and allows components to be placed closer together.
TI bills the new device as the industry’s first 100-Mbps single-pair Ethernet physical layer with a serial gigabit media independent interface. The flexible interface that can support switches and connectors across a variety of infotainment, body electronic and safety applications.
Carmakers are starting to phase in high-speed Ethernet platforms to handle increasing data demands of next-generation vehicle-to-everything communications and autonomous vehicle systems. Hyundai and Cisco Systems are partnering on a platform the carmaker plans to launch next year. And Marvell Semiconductor is developing a 1-Gbps Ethernet system.
