Configurable MAC solutions for speeds from 10Gbps to 10Mbps
The Cadence 10G/2.5G/1G Multi-Speed Ethernet Controller IP for Automotive Applications is a highly customizable soft controller IP, which is compliant with the IEEE 802.3 standard. To support a range of Ethernet applications, the Controller IP for Automotive features integrated 1000BASE-X and USXGMII PCS modules, a high-performance DMA with advanced AXI offloading capabilities and descriptor caching, QoS, and IEEE 1588. The Time Sensitive Networking/ Audio-Video Bridging (TSN/AVB) functionality enables unified Ethernet communication of critical data without traffic congestion in shared networks. Furthermore, the Controller IP for Automotive supports a host of other features including IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE), VLAN, TCP/IP offload, and remote network monitoring (RMON).
