Automotive Ethernet Industry Overview
The automotive ethernet market is fragmented in nature due to high competition. Despite the fragmentation, the market is primarily tied by the regulatory requirements for establishment and operation. Furthermore, with increasing innovation, acquisitions, and partnerships, market rivalry tends to rise in the future. Some major market players are Broadcom Inc., NXP Semiconductors NV, Marvell Technology Group Ltd, Microchip Technology Inc., and Texas Instruments Inc.
- May 2022 - The BCM8958X, a high bandwidth monolithic automotive Ethernet switch device from Broadcom Inc., was delivered. It was created to meet the expanding bandwidth need for in-vehicle networking applications and to promote the adoption of software-defined vehicles (SDV). With its 16 Ethernet ports, up to six of which are 10 Gbps capable, integrated 1000BASE-T1 and 100BASE-T1 PHYs, and higher switching capacity, the BCM8958X offers the increased flexibility and central compute ECU architecture support needed for automotive zonal electronic control unit (ECU) architectures. This switch also has a cutting-edge rule-based packet filter engine that can adjust to various vehicle operation modes to improve driving security.
