Multi-Rate Ethernet PHY FPGA IP

Altera

The Multi-Rate Ethernet PHY FPGA IP core can dynamically support multiple data rates from 10M to 10GE in accordance with the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet Standard without any design regeneration or device reconfiguration. This IP allows dynamic reconfiguration across all Ethernet rates from 10M, 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G. It handles the frame encapsulation and flow of data between a client logic and Ethernet network via PCS and PMA (PHY).

Key Features

  • Implements the Ethernet protocol as defined in clause 36 of the IEEE 802.3 2005 standard
  • Consists of a physical coding sublayer (PCS) function and an embedded physical medium attachment (PMA)
  • Dynamically switchable PHY operating speed; 1G/2.5G, 2.5G, 10M/100M/1G/2.5G, 1G/2.5G/10G (MGBASE-T), 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII), 10M, 100M, 1G, 2.5G, and 10G (MGBASE-T) operating modes
  • Users needing Copper-PHY capability for USXGMII, MGBASE-T modes will need to use an external PHY chip
  • Avalon® memory-mapped interface for PHY management
  • Datapath client interface: 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII)—XGMII, 32 bits
  • Datapath Ethernet interface: 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII)—Single 10.3125 Gbps serial link
