USB 100BASE-T1 Stick

FC602 USB 100BASE-T1 Stick for Automotive Single Pair Ethernet (SPE)

Overview

The FC602 USB 100BASE-T1 Stick represents a compact hardware interface connecting MS-Windows and Linux based PCs with automotive Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) network devices and switches. Automotive Ethernet network standards OABR (OPEN Alliance BroadR-Reach) and 100BASE-T1 are supported.

The FC602 USB 100BASE-T1 Stick functions as seamless media converter between a standard USB 2.0 interface and a 100BASE-T1 automotive Single Pair Ethernet network. On Windows and Linux host PCs the FC602 USB 100BASE-T1 Stick is detected as standard Ethernet device.

Flexible software APIs feature full access to the NXP TJA1101 PHY internal registers. This enables cable testing and network diagnosis.
