  • New Instalment – Mouser’s Empowering Innovation Together Technology Instalment Brings Engineers Up to Speed on WiFi7

Mouser unveils its latest instalment of the award-winning Empowering Innovation Together (EIT) technology series, examining WiFi7 and the ways it will revolutionise wireless communication. WiFi7 will usher in a new era of wireless technology and pave the way for faster, more reliable connections. Key specifications of WiFi7 include advanced features like quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), automated frequency coordination (AFC) and multi-user multiple inputs and multiple outputs (MU-MIMO), which will significantly increase the speed, capacity and reliability of current wireless networks. WiFi7 promises to reconstruct the way we connect with others by providing faster and more reliable access to data, streaming services and online gaming experiences than ever before. Through a range of articles, infographics, videos and The Tech Between Us podcast, Mouser offers valuable insight to the design engineering community on the advantages associated with this new technology, such as improved performance, additional security features, immersive technology capabilities, 8K streaming video and the relationship between WiFi7and 5G. The content notes how to leverage this cutting-edge technology in a wide variety of applications. This EIT instalment is sponsored by Mouser’s valued partners Intel, Broadcom, TE Connectivity, Taoglas, u-blox, Qorvo, TDK, and KYOCERA AVX.

  • New Product – Mouser Now Shipping Microchip Technology LAN8650 and LAN8651 Single-Pair Ethernet Switches for Automotive and Industrial Applications

Mouser is now shipping LAN8650 and LAN8651 industrial-grade single-pair Ethernet switches from Microchip Technology. The LAN865x series enables designers to connect 8-, 16-, and 32-bit microcontrollers that do not have a built-in Ethernet media access control (MAC) to 10BASE-T1S single-pair Ethernet (SPE) networks, enabling low-speed devices to connect to a standard Ethernet network, streamlining the need for dedicated communication systems in automotive and industrial applications. These single-pair Ethernet switches combine the common standard serial peripheral interface (SPI) and MAC, allowing interfacing with virtually any microcontroller and transfer of Ethernet packets utilising the OPEN Alliance 10BASE-T1x MAC-PHY serial interface specification. The 10BASE-T1S is the latest technology used to expand Ethernet to operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) networks, even when they consist of incompatible devices and different physical hardware, allowing simultaneous transfer, transmission, and receipt of packets between station controllers and the LAN8650 and LAN8651. The LAN8650 and LAN8651 devices also feature time-sensitive networking (TSN) support, allowing for synchronised timing across far-reaching Ethernet networks, critical for many automotive applications such as advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS). In addition, the LAN8650 and LAN8651 are functional, safety-ready and designed for use in ISO 26262 applications.
