Typically these posts discuss technology trends through the lens of a company’s press release about some “hot, new, breakthrough” product. Most of the time these discuss upgrades and incremental improvements. That’s all good, just unfortunately falls short of the usual marketing hype. Sometimes I come across something important for our (yours, mine, and someone you know) personal development.
There are three common physical layer (PHY) variants for multidrop single pair Ethernet (SPE), basic PHY, media access controller (MAC) PHY, and transceiver. They rely on different interfaces, including a media-independent interface (MII), reduced media-independent interface (RMII), serial peripheral interface (SPI), OPEN Alliance 3-pin (OA-3P), and Ethernet advanced physical layer (Ethernet-APL).
