Overview

The Gigabit Ethernet Verification IP is compliant with IEEE 802.3 specifications and verifies MAC-to-PHY layer interfaces of designs with a 1G Ethernet interface GMII TBI. It can work with SystemVerilog,Vera, SystemC, E and Verilog HDL environment. GMII TBI verification IP is developed by experts in Ethernet, who have developed ethernet products in companies like Intel, Cortina-Systems, Emulex, Cisco. We know what it takes to verify a ethernet product.

GMII TBI (8b/10b) Ethernet Verification IP is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA, Specman E and non-standard verification env

GMII TBI (8b/10b) Ethernet Verification IP comes with optional Smart Visual Protocol Debugger (Smart ViPDebug), which is GUI based debugger to speed up debugging.

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.
