Toshiba expands Ethernet bridge ICs line-up






KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 12 -- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) has added ‘TC9563XBG’ to its line-up of Ethernet bridge ICs, to provide support for 10Gbps communications in automotive information communications systems and industrial equipment.

Sample shipments have started and volume production will begin in August 2022, according to a statement.

Automotive networks are evolving toward zone architecture, where communications between zones use real-time, multi-gig transmission via Ethernet at a rate of 1Gbps or higher.

The new bridge IC has Toshiba’s first 2-port 10Gbps Ethernet, and the interface can be selected from USXGMII, XFI, SGMII, and RGMII. The two ports support Ethernet AVB and TSN, which facilitate real-time processing and synchronous processing, respectively.

They also support ‘simplified’ SR-IOV (virtual functions). The combination of these features in the new product delivers solutions suited to next-generation automotive networks.

As the speeds of communications devices continue to increase, the new IC can be used not only for zone architecture but also for various automotive applications such as IVI and telematics, and also in industrial equipment.

It is also positioned to be a successor to current TC9560 and TC9562 series products supporting 1Gbps Ethernet.

Toshiba, a leading supplier of advanced semiconductor and storage solutions, draws on over half a century of experience and innovation to offer customers and business partners outstanding discrete semiconductors, system LSIs and HDD products.
