Q3 2026: NXP Semiconductors (NL): NXP introduced its MCX A5 MCU family with an integrated 10BASE-T1S Ethernet digital PHY, enabling industrial and IoT endpoints to connect more sensors, actuators and controllers while reducing connectivity complexity
Q2 2026: Microchip Technology (US): Microchip introduced LAN878x and LAN888x 100BASE-T1 and 1000BASE-T1 PHY families with integrated MACsec, Time Sensitive Networking and functional-safety capabilities for automotive and industrial Ethernet architectures.
February 2024: Announcing the industry's first comprehensive 1.6T Ethernet IP solution in February 2024, Synopsys, Inc. significantly increased bandwidth and throughput for data-intensive AI workloads. In order to efficiently process petabytes of data, hyperscale data centers, which are fundamental in the era of pervasive intelligence, necessitate high-bandwidth, low-latency processors and interfaces. The new 1.6T Ethernet IP solution from Synopsys enables design teams to produce the fastest processors in the industry for applications involving AI and data center networking.
Synopsys' silicon roadmap equips hyperscale data center providers and the ecosystem that supports them with the most comprehensive, interoperable, and proved IP portfolio in the industry, thereby enabling them to future-proof their infrastructure. Customers require the IxVerify pre-silicon test solution from Keysight and the new 1.6T Ethernet controllers and robust 224G Ethernet PHY IP from Synopsys in order to design system on a chip devices that are the quickest and most reliable in the world.
July 2023: Microchip introduced its initial automotive Ethernet short range 10Base-T1S physical layer devices with support for time-sensitive networking (TSN) and functional safety in July 2023. For use in ISO 26262 applications, the LAN8670/1/2 10BASE-T1S Ethernet PHYs connect low-speed devices that previously needed their own communication systems to a standard Ethernet network with 10Mbit/s links. Specifications include a half-duplex mode, a speed of 10 Mbps, a flexible topology featuring a point-to-point and multidrop bus line, and the utilization of a single balanced pair of conductors. Additionally, the electromagnetic compatibility and interference with electromagnetic interference (EMC/EMI) of the devices are improved.
Support for Time-Synchronized Networks (TSN) enables synchronized timing across Ethernet networks and deterministic operation, which is crucial for numerous automotive zonal architecture applications.
November 2022: Two new 5-port Multi-Gigabit Unmanaged Switches, MS105, and MS305, were, launched by Netgear to help enterprises to expand their networks in cost-effective manner and with multi-gigabit speeds. MS105 and MS305, Multi-Gigabit Ethernet switches in a metal enclosure, have five 2.5G ports that can be mounted on a wall or desk. These switches are energy efficient and largely tested to make sure the reliability required by enterprises.
June 2022: The release of a new 10BASE-T1S Ethernet controller was announced by Onsemi, designed to provide dependable multi-point connectivity in industrial environments. More than forty nodes on a single twisted pair are supported by NCN26010, which is more than five times the number of nodes needed by the IEEE 802.3cg standard and minimizes the cost and complexity of installation.
