As automotive and industrial designers adopt Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) and all‑Ethernet architectures to support Software‑Defined Vehicles (SDVs) and complex industrial networks, demand is growing for secure, scalable connectivity. Microchip Technology Inc. announces the LAN878x and LAN888x families of Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) PHY transceivers, available in 100BASE-T1, 1000BASE-T1 and dual-speed 100/1000BASE-T1, designed to deliver secure, reliable and scalable Ethernet connectivity for automotive and other mission-critical applications

#Microchip_Technology_Inc. launches next-gen Optical Ethernet PHY transceivers with integrated IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and MACsec encryption, delivering secure, deterministic connectivity over long reaches up to 10 km on single-mode fiber. Designed for smart factories, remote monitoring, and industrial automation, these transceivers support speeds up to 25 Gbps with sub-nanosecond synchronization accuracy.“Design engineers are looking for solutions that simplify complex networking systems, adding PTP or MACsec could mean a complete overhaul of an existing design, our solution helps preserve our customers’ core-processing investment,” said Charles Forni, corporate vice president of Microchip’s networking and connectivity solutions business. “We’ve integrated these capabilities into our transceivers, enabling bolt-on functionality to help engineers build smarter, more secure and scalable networks.”

Microchip Technology Inc. has introduced next-generation optical Ethernet PHYs that combine PTP sub-nanosecond time synchronization and MACsec encryption, enabling secure, low-latency connectivity across long-reach networks.
