HSINCHU, Taiwan – October 08, 2026 – Realtek Semiconductor will participate in the China International Industry Fair (CIIF 2026) held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai from October 12 to 16, 2026, at booth number 5.2H-D085. Realtek's exhibition will fully focus on applications in the industrial sector, including integrated solutions for industrial Ethernet, industrial robots, and communication transmission solutions for humanoid robots. These offerings not only meet different levels of the industrial networking needs but also encompass transmission technologies for robotic applications.
Industrial Ethernet Total Solutions
Realtek's industrial Ethernet total solution is purpose-built for modern smart factories and harsh application environments. This solution comprehensively covers the network from the core to the aggregation to the edge access layer, providing seamless high-speed connectivity from the enterprise operation command center to the production line terminal equipment.
At the core control layer, Realtek employs L3 high-bandwidth routing switch chips to ensure low-latency communication across network segments and robustly link factory information systems. For plant aggregation and regional control, Realtek's L2 managed switch chips feature excellent network traffic scheduling and ring network redundancy (ERPS/RSTP) capabilities, ensuring stable and uninterrupted production line networks. Additionally, paired with PoE controllers, they can provide stable power directly to IP cameras, wireless APs, and control devices through a single network cable, significantly reducing the complexity and deployment costs of plant electromechanical wiring.
At the forefront of the edge access layer, Realtek's micro switch solution designed specifically for DIN-rail on-site environments offers a complete range of transmission rates from 100M to 1G to 10G and supports PoE power supply functionality. This solution not only features wide temperature design and strong anti-interference capabilities but also supports long-distance fiber optic transmission, perfectly interfacing with robotic arms, sensors, and PLCs in on-site automation equipment.
Industrial Robot Application Solutions
Realtek's industrial robot application solutions focus on efficient connectivity and precise control to meet the stringent demands of automated factories. The dual-core A55 SoC controller provides powerful and secure computing performance for robotic arms; the EtherCAT MCU achieves high integration and real-time precise control of multi-axis servo motors; the TSN automotive single-pair Ethernet switch is responsible for real-time industrial communication, with TSN time-sensitive networking enabling real-time synchronized control and absolute precision in timing scheduling. Additionally, it can integrate single-pair Ethernet technology to reduce wiring and improve interference resistance, along with high-speed image transmission through the Automotive SerDes Alliance communication solution.
Robot Communication Transmission Solutions
To meet the robot's internal space and weight reduction requirements, the 100/1000BASE‑T1 single-pair Ethernet PHY solution can significantly reduce wiring and save internal channel space. The EtherCAT MCU driver provides highly configurable servo control for the robot, and the EtherCAT network interface ensures that all joints can synchronously respond to central commands. The 8*GE+2*10GE Ethernet switch creates an efficient distributed backbone transmission architecture for the robot. This solution connects the central AI main control and gateway directly through two sets of 10GE ultra‑high bandwidth channels, ensuring high-speed interconnection of visual and spatial data.
Designed to satisfy the high real-time requirements between robots, this wireless solution delivers ultra-high bandwidth with superior interference resistance. Combining Wi-Fi 7 2x2 and Wi-Fi 6E 2x2 with multimode Thread, Zigbee, and Bluetooth communications, it effortlessly enables HD video streaming, remote control, multi-robot collaboration, and data exchange. Concurrently paired with advanced Wi-Fi 8 2x2 and 5GHz 3T3R wireless modules, the solution ensures real-time protocol integration and high-speed data swapping among robots, significantly boosting signal transmission reliability in complex wireless environments.
The integrated Type-C PD with a power switch (PSW) enables high-power bidirectional power delivery alongside robust safety protection. Paired with a USB3.2 Gen2x1 10Gb redriver and an eUSB2 repeater, it effectively compensates for cable attenuation to ensure stable transmission of vision data and control commands. Furthermore, the PD-integrated hub controller not only enhances system scalability but also seamlessly bridges the mainboard with diverse applications, including vision, acoustic, and radar sensors.
Audio Sensing and Voice Interaction Solution
Realtek's audio sensing and voice interaction solution supports 360-degree 3D sound source direction detection. By combining it with keyword spotting to instantly lock onto the wake-up direction, robots can accurately locate the source of a call and lock onto its direction. After waking up, Realtek's self-developed beamforming AI echo cancellation and noise reduction (AI-ECNR) audio processing technologies enhance the target direction's speech while suppressing environmental noise and echo interference. This provides a clear audio signal to the host SoC for command recognition, semantic understanding, and robot control. By executing real-time audio processing through a dedicated audio DSP, the audio processing burden on the Host SoC is reduced, thereby improving the efficiency of computational resource usage in the robot system.
Vision Transmission and Data Acquisition Solution
The Automotive SerDes Alliance communication solution provides a high-speed image transmission SerDes technology. The solution adopts the open standard ASA-ML technology, which offers top-level performance equivalent to existing proprietary protocols, significantly enhancing the image processing efficiency of machine vision.
Realtek’s Ameba Pro series low-power single-chip offers comprehensive visual data capture solutions for head-mounted multi-camera and wrist-mounted single-camera setups. This SoC is equipped with a self-developed ISP and integrates Wi-Fi hardware wireless synchronization technology, allowing the synchronization exposure time error of independent cameras to be less than 10 microseconds, capturing the highest quality synchronized images needed for robot training. The cameras are battery-powered, compact, lightweight, and can be quickly installed in various locations to achieve synchronized capture of full-angle image data.
