Microchip (Nasdaq: MCHP) announced the ATA6571RT, a radiation-tolerant CAN FD transceiver for space use released Nov 4, 2025. The device supports flexible data rates up to 5 Mbps and payloads up to 64 bytes per frame, improving bandwidth over classic CAN (typically 1 Mbps) and reducing bus load. It is backward compatible with classic CAN and pin-distribution compatible with existing COTS plastic or ceramic versions for PCB-level integration.

The ATA6571RT is designed to resist Single-Event Effects (SEE) and Total Ionizing Dose (TID), includes CRC error detection, local/remote wake-up, and short-circuit and overtemperature protection. Price is listed at $210 each in 10-unit quantities.

Microchip (Nasdaq: MCHP) introduced a new portfolio of Optical Ethernet PHY transceivers on Oct 30, 2025, in 25 Gbps and 10 Gbps variants that integrate IEEE 1588 PTP and MACsec (IEEE 802.1AE).

Key technical highlights include support for link lengths up to 10 km over single‑mode fiber, sub‑nanosecond (<1ns) time stamping for time‑sensitive applications, hardware MACsec encryption for device‑to‑device traffic protection, and multiple dual‑ and quad‑port SKUs across LAN802x/LAN804x and LAN826x families. Development kits are available and transceivers are available now in production quantities.

Microchip (Nasdaq: MCHP) announced the TimeProvider 4500 v3 grandmaster clock on Oct 27, 2025, a terrestrial alternative to GNSS that delivers 5 ns time transfer accuracy up to 800 km.

The TP4500 supports UTC(k) references, implements High Accuracy Time Transfer (HA-TT) per ITU-T G.8271.1, and can be configured as a virtual PRTC (vPRTC) or evolve toward cnPRTC (G.8272.2) architectures for resilient, carrier-grade timing. The product is shipping in production quantities with premium software features using PolarFire FPGA and Azurite synthesizer for precise, long-haul optical time distribution.

Microchip (Nasdaq: MCHP) announced the PIC32-BZ6 MCU, a single-chip platform for multiprotocol wireless products with advanced connectivity, touch and motor control on Oct 21, 2025. The MCU includes 2 MB Flash, 512 KB RAM, multiprotocol radio qualified to Bluetooth 6.0 plus 802.15.4 protocols (Thread, Matter), and automotive-grade reliability AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (125 °C).
