The XRS7000 series are advanced integrated circuits designed to add High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR), Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP), and time synchronization capabilities to both existing and novel applications. As part of the SpeedChips family, these chips provide market-leading redundancy in Ethernet networks, ensuring zero data loss without any single point of failure. The series offers high reliability and availability, fundamental for sectors like industrial automation and vehicle communication, as well as substation automation.
XRS7000 devices are versatile with distinct models like XRS7003 and XRS7004, each featuring multiple ports for flexible deployment. The XRS7003 version is apt for HSR and PRP endpoints, whereas the XRS7004 version supports both endpoint and RedBox functions, enabling broader connectivity across network nodes. Their integration simplifies the implementation of sophisticated networking systems by providing ready-made IC options that combined, form a more expansive redundancy structure.
These chips support features such as cut-through and store-and-forward operation, quality of service (QoS) with priority tagging, as well as time and frequency synchronization via IEEE1588-2008, ensuring not only reliability but also precision in data transmission across networks. The XRS7000 series, by coupling functionality with robust design, effectively enhances communication networks for diverse industrial applications.
