The rapid advancement of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and connected vehicle functionalities is driving the need for robust, high-performance internal networks. Single-point infrastructure (SPE) acts as a foundational technology for modern automotive architectures, enabling seamless connectivity between systems. By reducing the need to interconnect multiple standard and proprietary communication buses, SPE significantly simplifies wiring, reduces system costs, and speeds up network integration.
As part of this collaboration, Hyundai Motor Group is working with Microchip to integrate Microchip's 10BASE-T1S solutions into its future vehicle platforms, particularly in high-growth areas such as electric vehicles, autonomous driving, and smart mobility. The collaboration also includes access to Microchip's technical support and early product samples to accelerate time to market and optimize system performance.
“As the automotive industry moves toward software-defined vehicles, the need for scalable, high-performance onboard networks has never been greater. Our broad portfolio of Single Pair Ethernet-based hardware and software solutions enables customers to reduce costs, risks, and time to market,” said Matthias Kaestner, corporate vice president of Microchip’s automotive, data center, and networking business. “Our collaboration with Hyundai will support the development of next-generation onboard networking solutions that meet the mobility needs of tomorrow.”.
“Partnering with Microchip allows us to leverage their Ethernet expertise to support next-generation vehicle connectivity,” said Hyundai Motor Group. “HMG will accelerate the adoption of 10BASE-T1S technology and enable the next generation of smart, connected vehicles.”.
