Synopsys Ethernet MAC IP
The Synopsys Ethernet MAC IP enables the host to communicate data using the Ethernet protocol (IEEE 802.3) at 10 or 100 Mbps speeds. The IP is composed of three main layers: the Media Access Controller (MAC), the MAC Transaction Layer (MTL), and the MAC DMA Controller (MDC). Silicon-proven and designed for easy integration into ASICs and FPGAs, the Synopsys Ethernet MC IP comes with a user-friendly application interface so that designers can easily set their functional and implementation objectives to meet design requirements. The IP is verified using state of the art methodologies to reduce risk. The deliverables include the RTL design, verification, hardware verification, and interoperability tests.
The Synopsys Ethernet IP solutions consist of configurable controllers and silicon-proven PHYs supporting speeds of up to 100G, verification IP, IP Prototyping Kits, Software Development Kits and Interface IP Subsystems.
