Intelligent Network Interface Controller for MOST50 ePHY

The OS81082 is a highly integrated Intelligent Network Interface Controller (INIC) for the 50 Mbps MOST® network (MOST50). The integrated electrical physical layer (ePHY) signal conditioning circuitry offers differential I/O that interfaces to a passive ePHY transformer. This enables MOST data transmission via Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable.

Like all INIC circuits, the OS81082 implements time-critical, resource-intensive and fail-safe relevant parts of the network driver on-chip.

A few highlights:

  • Complete MOST network interface on a single chip
    • Fully encapsulated
    • Optimized for a 50 Mbps electrical physical layer (e.g., via UTP cable)
  • Embedded MOST network management
    • Network protected mode
    • Hardware & application watchdog timer
    • Intelligent muting
TrueAuto™ is SMSC’s proven total approach to true automotive-grade quality, allowing SMSC to deliver leading-edge, quality devices and services which fulfill the needs of the most demanding automotive customers.

TrueAuto device robustness begins with designing SMSC's reliability techniques within the silicon IC itself. The IC is fully-characterized over many operating parameters to ensure quality under a variety of conditions. SMSC's TrueAuto approach meets or exceeds automotive reliability standards as well as customer-specific requirements and goes far beyond the stress tests prescribed by the AEC-Q100 specifications. Extensive technologies and processes, such as enhanced monitors, are used in the fabrication of TrueAuto products in order to continuously drive improvements in accordance with SMSC's zero Defects per Million (DPM) goals.
