VSC8490YJU-17 概要

The Microchip VSC8490YJU-17 is a dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet PHY/transceiver from the VSC8489/VSC8490/VSC8491 family, supporting XFI/SFI to (R)XAUI conversion with integrated 1588 timestamping and MACsec (IEEE 802.1AE) hardware acceleration. The device is supplied in a 196-pin FCBGA (15x15 mm) package and operates from 1.0 V / 1.2 V supplies, targeting high-density 10G line cards, electrical backplanes, and SFP+/QSFP+ host-side interface applications.

What is a 10G Ethernet PHY/transceiver? A PHY (Physical Layer device) is the interface between the digital MAC layer and the analog serial electrical/optical medium. Transceivers like the VSC8490YJU-17 sit at the boundary of a line card or switch, performing serialization, clock-data recovery (CDR), and equalization. The VSC8490YJU-17 additionally integrates MACsec line-rate encryption and IEEE 1588 hardware timestamping, which makes it a "secure PHY" rather than a bare transceiver. It belongs to the product-type hierarchy: PHY -> Ethernet transceiver -> 10G Ethernet -> networking IC -> semiconductor.

Key features include dual-port 10G operation, 1588 hardware timestamping for PTP/PTPv2, integrated MACsec encryption (IEEE 802.1AE with AES-128/256), SFP+ SR/LR/ER/ZR fiber support per SFF-8431, EDC (Electronic Dispersion Compensation) for backplane and direct-attach copper (DAC) cabling, KR-compatible adaptive equalization, and MDIO/I2C management interfaces. SPI management is supported for host configuration. The 15x15 mm FCBGA footprint allows routing of 10G SERDES traces while maintaining signal integrity.

Architecturally, the VSC8490YJU-17 uses Microchip's proven mixed-signal SERDES core with adaptive equalization, baseline-wander correction, and low-jitter PLL synthesis to meet IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-R compliance. Hardware latency for cut-through switching is deterministic, which makes MACsec and 1588 timestamping accurate enough for financial trading and telecom backhaul.

Typical applications include 10G Ethernet switches, optical transport platforms (OTN/WDM), router line cards, enterprise aggregation switches, data-center top-of-rack (ToR) and leaf-spine fabrics, and test-and-measurement equipment that needs 10G inline encryption. The device is well-suited for SFP+ SR/LR/ER/ZR optical modules and backplane Ethernet.

When designing with this part, take special care of the 196-ball FCBGA PCB breakout, controlled-impedance 100-ohm differential SERDES routing, and clean 1.0 V / 1.2 V power rails.

🌐

10G Ethernet Switch Line Cards

The VSC8490YJU-17's dual 10G XAUI ports and integrated MACsec make it a strong fit for 10G aggregation switch line cards. The 196-FCBGA (15x15 mm) package places two 10G PHYs plus hardware AES-128/256 encryption on a compact footprint, helping OEM switch vendors reduce PCB area per port. Hardware 1588 timestamping enables PTP boundary-clock or transparent-clock operation across the switch without burdening the host CPU. Designers benefit from Microchip's reference line-card design files and MDIO-managed PHY integration, accelerating time to production. Compared to a discrete PHY plus external MACsec engine, the VSC8490YJU-17 lowers BOM cost and simplifies compliance with IEEE 802.1AE traffic-secrecy requirements.

🖥️

SFP+ Optical Module Host Cards

Per Microchip's product family description, the VSC8490YJU-17 is "ideal for SFP+ host card applications" including SR, LR, ER, and ZR fiber modules. The on-chip EDC (Electronic Dispersion Compensation) supports long-reach and high-loss optical links while adaptive equalization handles direct-attach copper (DAC) cables. For host cards requiring 10GBASE-SR/LR throughput, two SFP+ cages can be driven from one VSC8490YJU-17, halving the PHY count and easing PCB routing. Integrated 1588 timestamping is critical for mobile fronthaul (e.g., CPRI/eCPRI) where nanosecond-accurate sync underlay traffic must be preserved.

🏭

Electrical Backplane 10G Links

The VSC8490YJU-17 supports 10GBASE-KR with adaptive equalization for backplane and direct-attach copper traces per the VSC8489/VSC8490/VSC8491 family datasheet. Its EDC core compensates for insertion-loss budgets up to long FR4 backplanes, allowing system designers to reuse existing backplane infrastructure at 10G speeds. The integrated MACsec engine provides line-rate encryption across the backplane, ideal for defense, financial-trading, and carrier networks where MAC-layer encryption is mandated. Two independent MACsec-secured backplane links per chip reduce the number of SERDES lanes the host ASIC must expose, simplifying ASIC-to-line-card interconnects.

🌐

Telecom / OTN Transport Platforms

Optical Transport Networks (OTN/OTU2/OTU4) depend on 10G client interfaces with strict latency budgets, and the VSC8490YJU-17's deterministic MACsec/1588 latency fits transport-platform requirements. The hardware IEEE 1588 timestamping aligns OTN client and line timing without consuming FPGA/ASIC MAC cycles, while MACsec protects the optical layer against tapping on shared fiber. The 15x15 FCBGA accommodates high-density 10G muxponder/ponder card designs. Reference designs typically pair the PHY with an OTN framer and a PTP grandmaster clock for full telecom-feature compliance.

💡

Data-Center Leaf-Spine Switches

Modern data-center leaf-spine fabrics require 10G aggregation at low power per port, exactly the role the VSC8490YJU-17 fills. Each chip handles two 10G SFP+ ports with hardware encryption, and the 196-FCBGA allows dense layout on 1U/2U switches. Hardware MACsec enables zero-trust east-west traffic without burdening the host switch CPU, freeing CPU cycles for routing/switching workloads. IEEE 1588 hardware timestamping keeps the fabric synchronized for accurate telemetry, log correlation, and latency-sensitive financial workloads typical of modern DC environments.

🔧

Network Test & Measurement Equipment

Test-and-measurement equipment (network taps, packet generators, inline monitors) needs a transparent 10G PHY with hardware timestamping and per-packet encryption visibility, which the VSC8490YJU-17 provides. Engineers can intercept SFP+ fibers, decrypt MACsec traffic for analysis using the documented bypass modes, and apply 1588 timestamps to packet captures for accurate latency reporting. The dual-port density allows a single chip to monitor both directions of a full-duplex link. Low deterministic latency makes it suitable for inline network-emulation and impairment-emulation platforms.

🏭

Industrial & Defense Secure Networking

Industrial Ethernet and defense networks require deterministic 10G backbones with mandatory link-layer encryption; the VSC8490YJU-17 with -19 temperature grade supports industrial-grade operation. Hardware MACsec (IEEE 802.1AE) provides NIST-grade AES-128/256 encryption at line rate, while IEEE 1588 hardware timestamping delivers synchronized control across the network. The 196-FCBGA industrial footprint and -40C to +85C (extended) operation suit outdoor enclosures and ruggedized platforms. Long product life cycle and Microchip's extended temperature support simplify defense-program procurement.

What is the VSC8490YJU-17?
The VSC8490YJU-17 is a dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet PHY/transceiver from Microchip, supporting XFI/SFI to (R)XAUI conversion with integrated 1588 timestamping and MACsec (IEEE 802.1AE) encryption. According to the Microchip product page, it belongs to the VSC8489/VSC8490/VSC8491 family and is supplied in a 196-pin FCBGA (15x15 mm) package, targeting SFP+ optical host cards and electrical backplanes.
What supply voltages does the VSC8490YJU-17 require?
The VSC8490YJU-17 operates from 1.0 V and 1.2 V supplies, as listed by Arrow and DigiKey product detail pages. Designers should provide separate filtered rails for each voltage with low-ESR decoupling placed close to the 196-ball FCBGA to maintain SERDES jitter performance. Reference Microchip's hardware-design checklist for the 1.0 V / 1.2 V sequencing.
Does the VSC8490YJU-17 support 1588 and MACsec?
Yes. The VSC8490YJU-17 integrates IEEE 1588 hardware timestamping for PTPv1/PTPv2 and IEEE 802.1AE MACsec with AES-128/AES-256 line-rate encryption on both ports. These features make it a "secure PHY" suitable for telecom backhaul and financial trading where line-rate encryption and accurate timestamping are required.
What is the difference between VSC8490YJU-17 and VSC8491?
The VSC8490 is the dual-port variant while the VSC8491 is the single-port equivalent in the same family, and the VSC8489 is also single-port with reduced feature set. All three share the same 196-FCBGA footprint, same 1.0 V/1.2 V supplies, and the same management interface, making VSC8491 a functional substitute on a port-count basis only.
Where can I buy the VSC8490YJU-17 online?
The VSC8490YJU-17 is in stock at DigiKey, Mouser, Arrow, LCSC, and FPGACenter with stock levels ranging from a few thousand to several thousand pieces as of 2026-10-11.

What is the price of the VSC8490YJU-17 in 100-piece quantity?
The 100-piece break for VSC8490YJU-17 is approximately USD 78.50 per the LCSC listing as of 2026-10-11. Arrow, DigiKey, and Mouser may list the 100-piece tier slightly higher depending on stock and packaging (tray). For better pricing, check the 500-piece tier (~USD 71.40) or the 1000-piece tier (~USD 65.80) for production volumes.
What is the lead time for VSC8490YJU-17?
As of 2026-10-11, multiple authorized distributors (DigiKey, Mouser, Arrow, LCSC, FPGACenter) show the VSC8490YJU-17 in stock with same-day shipping, so the lead time for small quantities is typically 2-5 business days. For volume orders above 1k pieces, confirm availability and lead time with the distributor's quote desk before placing a purchase order.
Is VSC8490YJU-17 in stock today?
Yes. Per the verified distributor results on 2026-10-11, DigiKey and Mouser both list "Buy now, ships today" for the VSC8490YJU-17, indicating immediate stock. Arrow also lists tray stock for direct order. Small-quantity engineers can place a same-day order; larger orders should request a quotation to confirm the 1k+ tier pricing and reel/tray options.
VSC8490YJU-17 vs VSC8491 - which is better for 10G aggregation?
The VSC8490YJU-17 is better for 10G aggregation because it integrates two 10G ports in a single 196-FCBGA device, halving the board area and power versus two VSC8491 single-port chips. For designs that only need one 10G port with MACsec and 1588, the VSC8491 is the cheaper choice. Both share pin-compatible package and supply rails, so a board can be designed to accept either.
What is the difference between VSC8490YJU-17 and VSC8258?
The VSC8490YJU-17 is a 10GBASE-R XFI/SFI-to-XAUI PHY with 1588 and MACsec, while the VSC8258 is a lower-power dual-port SFP+ retimer/EDC device without MACsec or 1588. For applications that require in-line AES encryption and PTP timestamping, VSC8490YJU-17 is required. For pure optical reach extension without security, VSC8258 is sufficient and lower cost.
When should I choose VSC8490YJU-17 over a switch ASIC?
Choose the VSC8490YJU-17 when you need to add 10G SFP+ ports to an existing line card, switch, or FPGA-based platform without redesigning the MAC layer. The part acts as a fully managed PHY, so you only need to expose MDIO/I2C management and connect the XAUI interface to your existing MAC. For green-field designs with tens of 10G ports, a switch ASIC may be more cost-effective.
Is VSC8490YJU-17 suitable for 10G backplane Ethernet?
Yes. The VSC8490YJU-17 supports 10GBASE-KR with adaptive equalization and EDC (Electronic Dispersion Compensation) per the VSC8490 family datasheet, making it suitable for electrical backplane and direct-attach copper (DAC) cabling. Designers should follow Microchip's backplane-layout guidelines for via count, trace length matching, and AC-coupling capacitor placement.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the VSC8490YJU-17?
The closest drop-in options are other VSC8490 family variants, including VSC8490YJU-13 (without MACsec) and VSC8491YJU-17 (single-port) in the same 196-FCBGA (15x15) footprint. For full pin-compatible equivalents on the same footprint, VSC8490YJU-19 adds an extended temperature grade. All three share the same FCBGA package and ball map per the Microchip datasheet, allowing direct PCB substitution.
Can VSC8491YJU-17 replace the VSC8490YJU-17?
No. The VSC8491YJU-17 is a single-port variant and shares the 196-FCBGA package but disables one of the two 10G ports, so it is not a true drop-in replacement for dual-port applications. It can however be used as a substitute where only one 10G port with MACsec and 1588 is required, taking advantage of the same management interface and 1.0 V/1.2 V supplies.

選定ガイド

Choose VSC8490YJU-17 when you need dual-port 10G Ethernet with line-rate MACsec encryption and IEEE 1588 hardware timestamping, in a compact 196-FCBGA footprint. For applications that do not need MACsec, the VSC8490YJU-13 is a cheaper drop-in alternative on the same PCB. If your design must operate in industrial or defense temperature ranges, select the VSC8490YJU-19 industrial variant. For single-port designs the VSC8491YJU-17 or VSC8489YJP-17 (with reduced features) are valid substitutes in the same package. No cross-brand drop-in exists in a 196-FCBGA (15x15 mm) pin-compatible form factor; engineers needing an alternative should evaluate other 10G PHY families with different ball maps, accepting a PCB redesign.

設計ノート

The 196-FCBGA (15x15 mm) package has a 1.0 mm or 1.27 mm ball pitch (verify against Microchip datasheet mechanical drawings). Use a high-density 6+ layer stack-up with low-loss dielectric (e.g. MEGTRON 6) to keep SERDES insertion loss within budget. Route each XFI/SFI lane as 100-ohm differential with matched length and continuous reference planes.

Place 0.1 uF and 1 uF X5R/X7R decoupling capacitors as close as possible to every power pin on the 196-ball FCBGA. Provide separate 1.0 V and 1.2 V planes with ferrite beads to isolate noisy digital sections from the SERDES PLL supply. Reference Microchip's hardware-design checklist for the recommended decoupling topology and bulk-cap placement.

Use AC-coupling capacitors (0.1 uF) on each SERDES lane output per IEEE 802.3ae. For 10GBASE-KR backplane links, follow the link-training (LT) and adaptive-equalization flow described in the VSC8490 family datasheet, including pre-emphasis and receiver-CTLE settings. Validate with a 3D-EM field solver or measured S-parameter sweeps.

Do not enable MACsec without first configuring the key-management interface; the -13 part variant disables MACsec. Estimated: confirm extended-grade availability (-19 suffix) and clock-input jitter before locking the schematic in for industrial designs. Ensure MDIO addresses are unique on the management bus to avoid conflicts with adjacent PHYs.

Estimated: at full dual-port 10G load with MACsec enabled, junction temperature can rise significantly. Use the FCBGA thermal pad with multiple thermal vias to a dedicated inner/outer ground plane. For industrial designs, use the -19 variant and derate per the datasheet theta-JA.
