VETH100A1DD1 is a bidirectional ESD protection diode for automotive Ethernet, compliant with OPEN Alliance 100Base-T1 and 1000Base-T1. Made by Vishay, it comes in a wettable flank DFN1006-2B package measuring 1 x 0.6 x 0.45mm. Working range is ±24V, and clamping is typically at 31V for 1A, “a result of its snap-back technology with a trigger voltage >100V”, said the company. ...

Single-pair Ethernet tranceivers suite automotive links up to 40m
Microchip is aiming at automotive single-pair Ethernet links up to 40m long with a 7 x 7mm transceiver ICs called LAN8870B. Single-pair Ethernet is also being used in avionics, robotics and automation, it said. “For interoperability across industries, LAN887x PHYs are designed to be compliant with IEEE 802.3bp for the 1000BASE-T1 specification, and IEEE 802bw-2015 for the 100BASE-T1 specification*,” according ...
Industrial Ethernet switches for Layer 3
Moxa is aiming at industrial Ethernet with Layer 3 rack-mount switches. There are two types of MRX Series 64 port Layer 3 switches (left in photo): MRX-Q4064 have 16 and up to 48 2.5Gbit/s ports MRX-G4064 have 8 10Gbit/s Ethernet ports and up to 56 Gbit/s ports “Commercial Ethernet switches are seldom tailored for industrial applications,” said Moxa product manager ...
Circular data connectors for rugged conditions
Bulgin is extending its range of circular data connectors for rugged conditions, including Ethernet, USB and HDMI (pictured) interconnects. Aimed at harsh environments – such as industrial automation and wind and solar energy applications – the connectors have a rating of up to IP69K when mated, and are available in multiple cable lengths and mounting options. Specifically, there will be ...
Integrated processors accelerate Ethernet adoption in factory automation
Ethernet-based industrial communications is not a far-off, unattainable vision of factory and process automation. It is being adopted at a rapid pace, says Vaibhav Desai. The cost, complexity and scalability challenges of Ethernet-based communications mean that serial interfaces are still the standard for wired communications. This is understandable, given the cost-effectiveness and reliability of IO-Link and RS-485. Design and software ...
1.6Tbit/s Ethernet measurement demonstration
Keysight Technologies and Credo Semiconductor have demonstrated IEEE P802.3dj draft specification compliant 1.6Tbit/s Ethernet measurements for full line rate Layer 2 Ethernet traffic in hardware. “This provides proof that 1.6T Ethernet speed is possible, and that its performance can be measured,” according to Keysight. The rig transmits and processes more than a billion packets per second over a two meter electrical ...
Automotive 10Gbit/s+ Ethernet connector has push-fit PCB pins
Ennovi has introduced a 10Gbit/s Ethernet connector with USCAR interface and press-fit PCB pins. Called Ennovi-Net, “this innovation completely avoids the need for soldering”, the company said. “As solder usage is eliminated, there are no variations in the amount of solder paste applied and the capacitance associated with this. In addition, the shortness and lower capacitance of press-fit pins, compared ...
Smart NICs to be $5bn market by 2028
The Smart NIC market will top $5 billion by 2028, says Dell’Oro. Accelerated computing will continue to push the boundaries in server connectivity, demanding port speeds of 400 Gbps and higher speeds. “The Ethernet Adapter market is poised for a compound annual growth rate of 13 percent, fueled by the increasing adoption of higher-speed ports and Smart NICs within data ...
Managed or unmanaged industrial Ethernet switches
Moxa has introduced families of Ethernet switches for industrial environments. Spread across EDS-2000 and EDS-4000, they are being stocked in the UK by Impulse Embedded. “The core difference between ranges is their manageability: EDS-4000 switches are managed, which provides a higher level of control, security and optimisation,” according to Impulse, “EDS-2000 switches are unmanaged, which means that these function out-of-the-box, ...
