Overview

Xilinx offers an integrated 100 Gigabit per second (Gbps) Ethernet Media Access Controller (MAC) and Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) core  for high performance applications. The core is designed to the IEEE 802.3-2012 specification in the latest UltraScale™.

The Xilinx 100 Gbps Ethernet MAC and PCS core provides high-performance interconnect technologies for communications equipment and flexibility in implementing emerging interface standards. The PCS portion of the IP can be configured in CAUI-10 (10 lanes x 10.3125G), CAUI-4 (4 lanes x 25.78125G) or a dynamically switchable CAUI-10 and CAUI-4 mode.

Key features

  • Supports 10 lanes x10.3125 CAUI-10, 4 lanes x25.78125G  CAUI-4 or dynamically switchable CAUI-4 and CAUI-10 mode
  • No charge 100G Ethernet MAC and PCS license key enabled
  • Optional fee based soft 100G RS-FEC for UltraScale FPGAs
  • 1588 1-step and 2-step hardware time stamping  
  • Allows insertion of custom logic such as RS-FEC between the 100G Ethernet integrated block and GT
  • Optional Frame Check Sequence (FCS) checking, adding and deleting
  • Priority flow control
  • Dynamic and static skew support
  • PCS Lane Marker insertion and deletion

Designing with Virtex-5 Embedded Tri-Mode Ethernet MACs

In this article, we’ll review the feature set of Ethernet MAC blocks in Virtex-5 devices. We’ll also describe the differences between Virtex-5 and Virtex-4 FX Ethernet MACs, illustrate some potential applications, and describe how to use standard Xilinx tools to integrate an Ethernet MAC into your design.

Designing FPGA Based Reliable Systems Using Virtex-5 System Monitor

The fast track development and 24x7 operations have put tremendous pressure on the servers, networking systems and communication equipments. It has become necessary that these systems should operate reliably irrespective of the change in external operating environment like the temperature, humidity, and power fluctuations or, on chip conditions like on-chip temperature, internal voltage levels etc. Measuring the reliability of these physical systems is must for every operational unit.
