VSC7385XYV - 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch + PHY | Microchip
Teilenummer: VSC7385XYV ✓ AktivVSC7385XYV Übersicht
An Ethernet switch is a network-interface semiconductor that receives Ethernet frames on one port, examines their destination addresses, and forwards them through another port. A PHY supplies the physical signaling interface between the switch logic and twisted-pair or other physical network media. Integrating the PHYs with the switching engine reduces the number of separate Ethernet components required in a compact network endpoint, industrial controller, access point, or embedded gateway.
The verified listings identify the VSC7385XYV as an active, surface-mount device. No verified package designation, pin count, operating-voltage range, maximum data rate value, clock configuration, thermal rating, or AEC-Q100 status was supplied in the source data. Those attributes remain designated as data-needed rather than being inferred from the product family or from unrelated Ethernet components.
The VSC7385XYV is best suited to five-port Gigabit Ethernet aggregation, embedded network bridging, industrial communication gateways, and equipment that needs multiple Ethernet connections in one subsystem. Its integrated switch-and-PHY architecture can simplify board partitioning compared with a design using discrete switch and PHY devices. Final interface selection still depends on the exact package, supported copper media, electrical limits, firmware requirements, and reference configuration in the manufacturer documentation.
Engineers should begin with the manufacturer datasheet and confirm the land pattern, pin multiplexing, supply rails, clocking, LED or status signaling, and reference schematic before layout. The alternate vendor listing names the part as an Ethernet controller and the distributor listing categorizes it as a switch IC. These classifications are consistent with the five-port Gigabit Ethernet switch-plus-PHY description.
The principal design trade-off is integration versus flexibility. Consolidating switch and PHY functions can reduce component count and board area, but a tightly integrated part can be less forgiving of unusual media, connector, timing, or thermal requirements than a modular design. Validate magnetics, termination, layout, power sequencing, and environmental requirements on the final platform.
This page consolidates the verified distributor identity, availability indications, product classification, packaging information, and substitute-search results for VSC7385XYV. It also distinguishes confirmed facts from missing datasheet parameters and avoids presenting unverified pin assignments, pricing, or cross-brand replacements as engineering facts.

Typische Anwendungen
VSC7385XYV ist geeignet für 6 Anwendungs: Industrial Ethernet Gateway, Embedded Network Bridge, Networked Test and Measurement Equipment, Industrial Communication Concentrator, Multiport Industrial Controller, Industrial Access and Control Node.
Industrial Ethernet Gateway
The VSC7385XYV fits an industrial Ethernet gateway that must consolidate five local Gigabit Ethernet links into one communications subsystem. Its confirmed five-port switch and integrated five-PHY architecture can reduce the number of separate network-interface ICs compared with a discrete implementation. This is especially useful when field equipment, service interfaces, and an upstream controller must share a common switching block. The final design still requires confirmation of media support, temperature grade, surge performance, clocking, reset behavior, and management requirements from the manufacturer datasheet.
Empfohlen
Embedded Network Bridge
The VSC7385XYV is applicable to an embedded bridge that connects multiple local Ethernet devices to an upstream industrial or building network. Five integrated Gigabit Ethernet PHYs allow the bridge to terminate several physical links while the integrated switching function forwards frames between eligible ports. This can simplify a compact controller that lacks room for numerous discrete switch and PHY packages. Before layout, confirm the exact package, differential-pair assignments, port isolation behavior, reference clock source, and copper-media requirements in the manufacturer documentation.
Empfohlen
Networked Test and Measurement Equipment
The five-port VSC7385XYV can support test and measurement equipment that exposes several instrument or service connections through one Ethernet subsystem. A five-port Gigabit Ethernet switch with integrated PHYs provides local frame forwarding while reducing the number of external network components. This architecture is useful for compact measurement platforms, laboratory interfaces, and communication analyzers needing multiple Ethernet endpoints. Verify power consumption, thermal margin, clock requirements, supported media, and management features because the supplied verified listings do not quantify them.
Empfohlen
Industrial Communication Concentrator
The VSC7385XYV can serve as the central Ethernet switching element in an industrial communication concentrator. Five Gigabit Ethernet ports with integrated PHYs suit equipment that gathers data from multiple sensors, controllers, or service nodes before forwarding it over a higher-level network. Integrating the PHYs may reduce PCB partitioning and component count in compact systems. Engineering validation must cover supported copper media, isolation strategy, surge and ESD requirements, operating temperature, synchronization, and the manufacturer's recommended magnetics and layout.
Empfohlen
Multiport Industrial Controller
The VSC7385XYV is suitable for a multiport industrial controller that must communicate with several machines, vision stations, or remote I/O nodes over Gigabit Ethernet. Its integrated five-port switch and PHY arrangement provides a compact Ethernet subsystem without requiring five separate physical-layer components. This can be advantageous where enclosure space and component count are constrained. The part should not be selected solely from its port count: engineers must confirm package dimensions, supply rails, clock source, reset requirements, thermal performance, and the exact supported media in the official documentation.
Empfohlen
Industrial Access and Control Node
The VSC7385XYV can support an access node that combines several local Ethernet endpoints with a centralized control network. Its five integrated Gigabit Ethernet PHYs make it possible to place multiple service ports close to the equipment while retaining local switching. The architecture can suit access panels, building controllers, and remote monitoring nodes where wired reliability is preferred. Before schematic capture, verify port roles, management configuration, clocking, reset sequencing, media support, and whether any isolation or surge-protection components are required by the target installation.

Designhinweise
Do not begin differential-pair routing from a generic package library because the verified data does not identify the exact VSC7385XYV package or pin assignments. Obtain the manufacturer package drawing and recommended layout first, then map each PHY channel, supply rail, ground reference, clock, reset, and management signal to its documented pins. Preserve the manufacturer-recommended copper geometry and keep switching and high-current return paths away from sensitive Ethernet differential pairs. A final sign-off should compare the assembled PCB against both the land pattern and the reference schematic.
The supplied data confirms five integrated PHYs but provides no supply-voltage range, current consumption, or power-dissipation values. Before enabling all five ports, calculate worst-case supply demand from the official datasheet, including continuous traffic, startup, port-insertion events, and adjacent temperature conditions. Reserve local decoupling according to the reference design and confirm that the regulator and copper area can meet the resulting load. Until those figures are verified, do not reuse the power circuit of a lower-port-count Ethernet device as a substitute.
Treat each Gigabit Ethernet channel as a controlled-impedance differential pair only after its exact pin mapping and media configuration are confirmed. Follow the manufacturer's reference layout for pair spacing, length matching, pair-to-pair spacing, grounding, and connector or magnetics interface. Verify the selected Ethernet magnetics and isolation arrangement against the supported media, and perform pre-compliance testing for insertion loss, return loss, radiated emissions, and immunity. The listing verifies integrated PHYs but does not establish which external magnetics or media configurations are supported.
Do not treat similar five-port Gigabit Ethernet ICs as drop-in equivalents merely because the port count matches. Compatibility requires the same package and pin functions, compatible supply rails, clocking, reset sequencing, management interface, PHY media support, and initialization behavior. The supplied substitute search contains no confirmed candidate meeting those requirements. Keep the VSC7385XYV footprint and schematic under configuration control, and require written manufacturer evidence before approving any alternative for a production redesign.
Compliance-Informationen
The supplied verified listings do not explicitly state RoHS, REACH, AEC-Q100, lead-free, halogen-free, or conflict-minerals status for VSC7385XYV. The product is reported as active and surface mount, but those statements do not establish environmental or automotive compliance.
