Ethernet PCS 1G/2.5G/5G/10G/25G & CPRI 7.0

Overview

 A combined silicon agnostic implementation of the PCS layer compliant with Ethernet standard IEEE 802.3-2018 and CPRI Specification V7.0 based solution

The vendor offers a PCS IP core that can be used for both Ethernet and CPRI. The PCS Ethernet and CPRI IP core is a silicon agnostic implementation of the PCS layer compliant with Ethernet standard IEEE 802.3-2018 and CPRI Specification V7.0.

The IP-core supports 1G, 2.5G, 5G, 10G, and 25G Ethernet data rates as well as CPRI data rate option 1 (614.14M) to option 10 (24.33024G).

The PCS Ethernet and CPRI IP core can be dynamically configured to enable either 8b10b or 64b66b encoding/decoding.

In order to ensure easy integration, built-in test capabilities are provided in the core. The IP core has been optimized for size and is a highly tested solution that will fast-track any project.
