Highlights from Recent IEEE 802.3 Ethernet Standards Meeting
I wanted to share with you a number of updates from last month's IEEE 802.3 meeting in San Diego, California. Cadence has a comprehensive portfolio of design and verification IP, many of which support the latest Ethernet standards. Here are my observations on how things have progressed in the standards meetings over the last few months.
Automotive Ethernet - there are now two projects underway to standardize automotive PHYs. The 802.3bp project is standardizing the 1000BASE-T1 gigabit PHY and the 802.3bw project is standardizing the 100BASE-T1 100Mbps PHY. The 802.3bw project has just been approved and is developing a fast-track 802.3 standard from the OPEN Alliance OABR standard. The automotive industry felt it necessary for this PHY to be standardized in 802.3 to ensure interoperability.
