General Description

1G Ethernet MAC Configurator core can be used to define desired configuration and loaded into So-Logic's 1G MAC Controller core. 1G Ethernet MAC Configurator core also automatically gathers statistics about 1G MAC RX and TX data streams and output it in demultiplexed format to the surrounding logic.


So-Logic's 1G Ethernet MAC Configurator core is intended to be controlled using a dedicated VIO core.


The so_ip_eth_1G_mac_configurator core can be evaluated using Xilinx Evaluation Platforms before actual purchase. This is achieved by using a demonstration bit files for KC705 platform that allows the user to connect the So-Logic's complete 1G Ethernet solution system to some other Ethernet enabled device (PC or some Ethernet tester equipment) and evaluate system performance under different transfer scenarios.


For more information about the 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet MAC Configurator core please consult the corresponding datasheet.
