The XY model (s=1/2) on the one-dimensional alternating superlattice (closed chain) is solved exactly by using a generalized Jordan-Wigner transformation and the Green function method. Closed expressions are obtained for the excitation spectrum, the internal energy, the specific heat, the average magnetization per site, the static transverse susceptibility and the two-spin correlation function in the field direction at arbitrary temperature. At T=0 it is shown that the system presents multiple second order phase transitions induced by the transverse field, which are associated to the zero energy mode with wave number equal to 0 or $\pi$. It is also shown that the average magnetization as a function of the field presents, alternately, regions of plateaux (disordered phases) and regions of variable magnetization (ordered phases). The static correlation function presents an oscillating behaviour in the ordered phase and its period goes to infinity at the critical point.
