T2M IP a recognized global supplier of semiconductor intellectual property, has launched its latest ASIL-certified Automotive Gateway, Switch, and Router IP Core. This cutting-edge IP Core is engineered for modern in-vehicle network topologies, including Zonal, Domain-based, and Centralized Gateway systems, offering robust performance and scalability for next-generation electronic vehicle designs.
As the automotive industry embraces Ethernet as the backbone for in-vehicle communication, OEMs and Tier-1s are seeking highly integrated solutions that can manage data traffic between a variety of communication protocols while maintaining safety and deterministic performance.
This newly introduced Gateway IP Core delivers just that—an integrated switch/router that supports automotive networking standards such as CAN FD Controller IP, LIN BUS Controller IP, FlexRay Controller IP, and Ethernet PHY IP (10/100/1000 Mbps), along with PHY compatibility including RMII and RGMII. The IP core is fully aligned with the growing trend of centralized computing and software-defined vehicles (SDVs), offering automotive developers the infrastructure required to manage increasing network complexity.
Key Advantages of Automotive Gateway IP Core:
-
ASIL-Qualified Architecture ensuring reliability in safety-critical applications
-
Line-Rate Switching & Routing, ensuring high-throughput, low-latency data handling
-
Versatile Forwarding Engine, enabling:
-
Management of static and learned MAC addresses
-
VLAN-aware traffic segmentation
-
IPv4/IPv6 address recognition and ARP handling
-
Layer 2 & Enhanced Layer 2+ Routing and Classification
-
Advanced QoS Capabilities, offering up to 8 traffic classes via CBS, strict priority, and Time-Aware Shaper (TAS)
-
Sophisticated Queue Structures for efficient data handling across MAC and VM ports
-
AXIM-Based DMA Engine for optimized memory transfers and virtual port servicing
-
Built-in Security Features, including MACsec encryption and MKA key exchange, with secure configuration via HSM
Designed to fit into a range of in-vehicle roles—Central Gateway, Domain Controller, or Zonal Node—the IP Core enables modular and scalable integration. Automotive platforms can now consolidate multiple ECUs by function (e.g., ADAS, Powertrain, Body Control) or by physical zones, significantly simplifying system architecture while future-proofing against increasing data bandwidth needs.
T2M IP has a wide & diverse silicon Interface IP Cores Portfolio, including USB, PCIe, HDMI, Display Port, MIPI, DDR, V-by-One, programmable SerDes, SD/eMMCs, and many more Controllers with matching PHYs, available in major Fabs in process nodes as small as 7nm. On request, they can also be ported to other foundries and cutting-edge process nodes.
