Microchip Technology LAN937x Gigabit Ethernet switches are a family of scalable, compact 100BASE-T1 Ethernet Gigabit switches based on the IEEE 802.3bw-2015 specification.
The LAN9370 is a 5-port Layer 2+ management switch containing four 100BASE-T1 PHYS and a MAC port that can be configured as RGMII/MII/RMII. The LAN9371 is a 6-port Layer 2+ management switch that includes three 100BASE-T1 PHyS, one 100BASE-T X PHY, and two MAC ports that can be configured as RGMII/MII/RMII. The LAN9372 is an 8-port Layer 2+ management switch with five 100BASE-T1 PHyS, one 100BASE-T X PHY, and two MAC ports that can be configured as RGMII/MII/RMII. The LAN9373 is an 8-port Layer 2+ management switch that contains five 100BASE-T1 PHyS, two MAC ports that can be configured as RGMII/MII/RMII, and one SGMII port. The LAN9374 is an eight-port Tier 2+ management switch that incorporates six 100BASE-T 1 PHY and two MAC ports that can be configured as RGMII/PII/RMI.
The LAN937x is offered in the Class 2 vehicle (-40°C to +105°C) temperature range and is AEC-Q100 certified for automotive use situations such as gateways, Autonomous Driver assistance systems (ADAS), infotainment, telematics and in-car networking. Switches are also available in industrial temperature versions (-40°C to +85°C), ideal for non-automotive applications such as industrial vehicles, automation, robotics and transportation.
LAN937x fully supports IEEE Audio Video Bridging (AVB) and key TSN (Time Sensitive Networking) standards to provide high quality of service (QoS) for delay sensitive traffic flows over Ethernet, including:
•IEEE 802.1AS Time synchronization
•IEEE 802.Qat stream reservation
•IEEE 802.Qav Traffic Shaping
•IEEE 802.1Qbv (TSN) Time-aware scheduler
•IEEE 802.1Qci (TSN) Entry Filtering and Supervision
A wealth of EtherGREEN products offer energy efficiency features, including the Open Alliance TC10 Sleep/Wake partial network, non-TC10 link partner Energy detection wake and ultra deep sleep capabilities.
