Overview

The 100Gbps Ethernet IP solution offers a fully integrated IEEE802.3ba compliant package for NIC (Network Interface Card) and Ethernet switching applications.

Key features

  • Implements the full 802.3 specification with preamble/SFD generation, frame padding generation, CRC generation and checking on transmit and receive respectively.
  • Implements 802.3bd specification with ability to generate and recognize PFC pause frames (optional)
  • Implements reconciliation sublayer functionality with start and terminate control characters alignment, error control character and fault sequence insertion and detection.
  • Implements Deficit Idle Count (DIC) mechanism to ensure maximum possible throughput at the transmit interface.
  • Support for VLAN tagged frames according to IEEE 802.1Q.
  • Discards frames with mismatching destination address on receive (Except Broadcast and Multicast frames).
  • Supports programmable promiscuous mode to omit MAC destination address checking on receive EMAC.
  • CRC-32 generation and checking at high speed using an efficient pipelined CRC calculation algorithm.
  • Implements 100GBase-R PCS core compliant with IEEE 802.3ba Specifications.
  • Implements a 320-bit CGMII interface operating at 312.5MHz for 100G Ethernet.
  • Implements 64b/66b encoding/decoding for transmit and receive PCS.
  • Implements 100G scrambling/descrambling using 802.3ba specified polynomial 1 + x39 + x58
  • Implements Multi-Lane Distribution (MLD) across 20 Virtual Lanes (VLs)
  • Implements periodic insertion of Alignment Marker (AM) on the transmit path and deletion on the receive path
  • Implements 66-bit block synchronization and Alignment Marker Lock machines as specified in 802.3ba specifications.
  • Implements lane reordering to support reception of any virtual lane on any physical lane.
  • Implements BIP-8 insertion/checking per Virtual Lane on transmit/receive respectively.
  • Implements Inter Packet Gap (IPG) Insertion/Deletion for Alignment marker and clock compensation while maintaining a minimum of 1 byte IPG.
  • Implements gear-box logic to convert 66-bit blocks to 20-bit for line side. The 20-bit interface operates at the transceiver reference clock.
  • Implements programmable internal CGMII loop-back
  • Implements Bit Error Rate (BER) monitor
  • Implements skew compensation logic in order to realign all the virtual lanes and reassemble an aggregate 100G stream (with all 64b/66b blocks in the correct order)

Enhancing Ethernet Security with MACsec

Ethernet was originally designed for high-speed data transfer and interoperability between devices. However, traditional Ethernet does not provide built-in mechanisms for securing data traffic, such as encryption or authenticity protection. This is where MACsec comes into the picture.

What Makes Ethernet IP Truly Automotive-Grade

This blog examines what separates truly automotive-grade Ethernet IP from generic implementations across functional safety, time-sensitive networking, security, observability, lifecycle management, and the integration disciplines that only become visible once a program is deep into development.
