Microchip Technology LAN9668 8-port Ethernet Switches
Microchip Technology LAN9668 8-port Ethernet Switches are compact and cost-effective, with multi-port Gigabit Switches. These switches are integrated with 10/100/1000BASE-T PHYs and 600MHz ARM Cortex A7 CPU subsystem. The LAN9668 ethernet switches are Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) switches that deliver IEEE standards-compliant features to lower latency data traffic flows and greater clock accuracy. These Ethernet switches include 8 ports and support up to two RGMII/RMII, and three 1000BASE X/SerDes/2.5GBASE-X/KX. In addition to the two integrated PHYs, they also support up to two Quad-SGMII/Quad-USGMII interfaces. Warehouses and industrial ecosystems rely on TSN and Ethernet for precise timing, synchronization, and connectivity of devices including cameras, barcode readers, scanners, and conveyors.Features
