Description
Lansing™ is an advanced Ethernet MAC chip, allowing a system with a standard CSIX-64 host interface access to 10 trispeed (10/100/1000 Mbit/s) Ethernet ports.
The 10 separate tri-speed MACs support both half-duplex and full duplex at 10/100 Mbit/s and full duplex at 1 Gbit/s.
Features
- include cyclic replay of frames at a user definable rate - either built by the external CPU directly inside the FIFOs or captures from incoming traffic. A dual MII Management interface sets up and controls the PHYs. Frames are monitored, and the statistics generated can be analyzed at a later time. All registers can be accessed via the serial or CSIX-64 interfaces. These features allow a 10GbE connection to behave like ten separate tri-speed connections, which make integration of 10GbE into exis.
