10BASE-T1S MAC-PHY Automotive Solutions

MAC-PHY devices are high-performance Ethernet physical layer (PHY) devices with integrated media access controllers (MAC), ideal for supporting next-generation electrical/electronic (E/E) automotive architectures. Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) offers 10BASE-T1S compliant MAC-PHY solutions that support both point-to-point and multidrop implementations over an unshielded twisted pair (UTP), enabling direct connectivity with a variety of host controllers via the Open Alliance SPI (OASPI) interface.

ADI’s 10BASE-T1S MAC-PHY solution is IEEE 802.3™-2022 compliant and compatible with a range of cost-effective microcontrollers. We provide software drivers, evaluation kits, and design and development tools to support integration of MAC-PHY solutions into your next-gen automotive platforms.

Value and Benefits

  • Low-Power MAC-PHY: Enables efficient sensor/actuator links in zonal automotive systems.
  • Simplified Cabling: Supports ≥8 nodes, ≥25m multidrop, ≥15m point-to-point.
  • Gateway-Free Design: Eliminates protocol translation for lean E/E architecture.
  • Full TC Compliance: Includes PLCA multi-ID, TC10/TC14, lowest differential capacitance.
