Summary

The Ethernet MAC library provides a complete, software defined, Ethernet MAC that supports 10/100/1000 Mb/s data rates and is designed to IEEE Std 802.3-2002 specifications.

• 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet MAC
• 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet MAC with real-time features
• 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet MAC with real-time features (xCORE-200 XE/XEF)
• Raw MII interface

Features

• 10/100/1000 Mb/s full-duplex operation
• Media Independent Interface (MII) and Reduced Gigabit Media Independent Interface (RGMII) to the physical layer
• Configurable Ethertype and MAC address filters for unicast, multicast and broadcast addresses
• Frame alignment, CRC, and frame length error detection
• IEEE 802.1Q Audio Video Bridging priority queueing and credit based traffic shaper
• Support for VLAN-tagged frames
• Transmit and receive frame timestamp support for IEEE 1588 and 802.1AS
• Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) Interface for physical layer management
