To provide designers with a reliable and robust network solution with deterministic communication, Microchip Technology (Nasdaq: MCHP) today announces its next-generation of LAN969x Ethernet switches with Time Sensitive Networking (TSN), scalable bandwidths from 46 Gbps to 102 Gbps and a powerful 1 GHz single-core Arm® Cortex®-A53 CPU.

Key Points: 
  • To provide designers with a reliable and robust network solution with deterministic communication, Microchip Technology (Nasdaq: MCHP) today announces its next-generation of LAN969x Ethernet switches with Time Sensitive Networking (TSN), scalable bandwidths from 46 Gbps to 102 Gbps and a powerful 1 GHz single-core Arm® Cortex®-A53 CPU.
  • For applications that require greater redundancy, the LAN969x Ethernet switches can be configured with High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR) and Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP).
  • “Prior to the introduction of Microchip’s LAN969x Ethernet switches, customers who wanted to implement TSN and HSR/PRP features required multiple ICs.
  • The new family of LAN969x mid-range Ethernet switches rounds out Microchip’s portfolio of TSN switches.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRVL), a leader in data infrastructure semiconductor solutions, today announced the extension of its campus networking portfolio into the operational technology (OT) networks common to industrial and critical infrastructure organizations. Marvell's Secure Deterministic Ethernet solution, comprised of Prestera® switches and Alaska® PHYs, is designed for switch appliances used in these often-harsh environments. By enabling the more widespread use of Ethernet in the OT environment, the new solution facilitates the adoption of modern IT tools and security methods in OT networks, enabling a common management and automation approach from the cloud to the OT network edge. According to 650 Group, the shift to Ethernet is driving double-digit growth in this sub-segment, increasing Marvell's addressable market. 

Key Points: 
  • The new solution addresses these deterministic networking requirements with a set of Ethernet standards known as time-sensitive networking (TSN).
  • A complete industrial networking solution requires only a switch and one or more PHYs and, in some cases, only a single, integrated chip.
  • "As standards-based deterministic networking gains traction, there's new opportunity for traditional IT networking vendors to enter this rapidly growing market."
