The chip is primarily used in automotive zonal architectures and high-data-rate systems, including: ADAS & Autonomous Driving:
If you’re designing a zonal architecture, you have three choices: CAN-FD (slow), 1000BASE-T1 (fast but power-hungry), or 100BASE-T1. bcm89890
This transceiver is designed to support the high-bandwidth needs of modern "connected cars," including: The chip is primarily used in automotive zonal
: Optimized for connectivity with automotive switches or host SoCs via PCIe and XFI interfaces. you have three choices: CAN-FD (slow)
