Microchip's next generation switch family delivers a flexible Industrial Ethernet and SMB solution. The VSC7513 is an 8-port Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switch supporting a combination of 1G and 2.5G Ethernet ports. The device provides a rich set of Industrial and Enterprise Ethernet switching features. Using multistage TCAM technology, it delivers VLAN and QoS processing that enables delivery of differentiated services, security through intelligent frame processing, and egress frame manipulation. For industrial applications, VSC7513 integrates distributed timing technology that delivers the industry’s most accurate IEEE 1588v2 timing implementation. A powerful 500 MHz CPU enables full management of a Layer 2 Ethernet switch solution. A comprehensive application programming interface (API) and software development package accelerate time-to-market for managed Ethernet applications. The software API package integrates easily with third-party software, preserving existing software investments.
