Ethernet MAC 40G/100G

Overview

Ethernet MAC 40G/100G IP is a solution that enables the host to communicate data using the IEEE 802.3 standard for 10G/25 speeds and is suited for use in networking equipment such as switches and routers. The Client-side interface for the IP is a 128 bit AXI-S and the Ethernet MAC IP comes with 128 bit XLGMII or CGMII interface on the PHY side.

The Ethernet MAC IP features a compact and low latency solution, it is highly configurable and can optionally include IEEE 1588 Timestamping Unit (TSU). The Silicon agnostic Ethernet MAC IP, suitable for ASICs and FPGAs, is pre-pared for easy integration with  Ethernet PCS 40G/ 100G IP from Comcores.
