Ethernet Physical Layer Transceivers (PHYs)
Our 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Physical Layer Transceivers (PHYs) are high-performance, small-footprint, low-power transceivers designed specifically for today's consumer electronics, automotive, industrial and enterprise applications. Available in the industry's smallest footprint and consuming up to 40% less power than similar products, they also have integrated voltage regulator and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection components to help reduce your Bill of Material (BOM) costs. We offer 10BASE-T, 10BASE-T1S, 100BASE-TX, 100BASE-T1 and 1000BASE-T PHYs.
Our 1–800 GbE PHYs target data center, service provider, enterprise and AI/ML applications. They provide retiming, gearboxing, a 2:1 hitless multiplexer (mux), crosspoint capabilities, optional AES-256 MACSec and IPSec encryption, port aggregation, nanosecond accuracy Precision Time Protocol (PTP) timestamping and Flexible Ethernet (FlexE) while operating over the industrial temperature range. For applications that require SerDes rates up to 56 Gbps, see the PM6110 META-DX1 family and for applications that require SerDes rates up to 112 Gbps, see the PM6200 META-DX2L and PM6210 META-DX2+ family of devices.
