Deterministic Ethernet solutions, like TSN, deliver streams with guaranteed bandwidth and deterministic latency.
Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) is the name of the IEEE 802.1 Task Group responsible for standards at Data Link Layer. This group provides the specifications that will allow time-synchronized and low latency streaming services through IEEE 802 networks.
This new 10G TSN Switch IP Core from SoC-e, is the evolution of the MTSN Switch IP Core. It is also a flexible HDL code ready to generate TSN endpoints or TSN bridge implementations, but with the option of having 10G ports. As with the other SoC-e IP Cores, this IP has a rich set of Generic parameters, in order to obtain the best functionalities resources trade-off. These generics can be configures graphically through the Vivado GUI as well.
