Overview
The Ethernet MAC 10/100 IP is designed for implementation of CSMA/CD in accordance with the IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u standards. The core is a 10/100 Media Access Controller (MAC) for Intel® FPGA devices that supports half and full duplex modes. The core connects to any industry standard ethernet PHY device via MII (Media Independent Interface for 10/100 Mbps applications) and to a user application via the Avalon bus interface.The core has been optimized for popular FPGA devices and its functionality has been verified on the real hardware. It is provided as Intel Quartus® Prime II Mega Function (Intel Platform Designer, formerly Qsys, ready component) and integrates easily into any Qsys generated system using Nios® II Avalon bus.
Features
- Performs MAC layer function as per IEEE 802.3 and Ethernet standard
- Collision detection and auto re-transmitting on collision in half duplex mode (CSMA/CD protocol)
- IEEE 802.3 Media Independent Interface(MII), Complete status for TX/RX packets, 32 bit CRC generation and checking
- Flow control and generation of control frames in full duplex mode (IEEE 802.3x)
- Supports full duplex and half duplex modes, Supports 10/100 Mbps speed
