AVB endpoints components are Intelligent Ethernet Controllers that integrate AVB protocols and a set of additional features to enable engineers designing AVB capable products in no time and with almost no engineering resources needed. Endpoints are designed and validated against IEEE, Avnu and IETF standards, providing full compliance and interoperability out-of-the-box.

The LAN9360 supports the implementation of an Automotive Ethernet Audio Device enabling uncompressed audio data transfers over an Ethernet Audio Video Bridging network. Hence, it is designed to route audio data between an AVB/TSN Media Stream on the Ethernet network and an Audio Interface that connects to digital audio sources and sinks. The LAN9360 provides an implementation of an AVB/TSN protocol stack. By connection to an external Ethernet PHY Transceiver, it can be used with several Ethernet physical layers.

Microchip's complimentary and confidential LANCheck® online design review service is available for customers who have selected our products for their application design-in.

 

Development Tools

Features of the LAN9360 AVB Audio Endpoint Evaluation Board include AVB protocols out-of-the-box, Integrated Analog Audio CODEC (stereo IN/OUT), Integrated MEMS microphone, RMII interface for PHY Daughter Boards.
The LAN9360 AVB Audio Endpoint Evaluation Board is an evaluation platform for Digital Audio Trans-missions over Ethernet AVB. It comes with a set of AVB protocols integrated inside LAN9360. It allows evaluating and prototyping digital audio applications over Ethernet in no time and with less efforts.

Configuration of LAN9630 can be done using MPLAB Network Creator, a fast and intuitive PC Software.

An Ethernet PHY Module must be purchased separately. See System Requirements.
