GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
warding rate The DP83016 provides non-blocking, wire-speed Gigabit — MII / GMII / RGMII operation for copper PHYs, TBI / performance on all ports and supports both managed and RTBI interface for fiber / SerDes unmanaged operation. — 4-wire serial CPU interface for low cost unmanaged sysThe DP83016 minimizes total system cost. Furtheragement more, it eliminates the requirement for a configuration — 256 kB on-chip frame buffer EEPROM. — Programmable classifier for QoS (Layer-4/Multi-media) An on-chip 256kB frame buffer allows for an extremely — 4k VLAN (IEEE802.1Q) and 4k MAC address support simple system design. Using only two DP83016 devices, 24-port Gigabit Switch — Full duplex flow control (IEEE802.3x) and half duplex back pressure designs are possible. — Flexible link aggregation based on IEEE802.3ad The DP83016 forwards frames at layer 2 based on information from layer 2 through layer 4. It supports programmable — Spanning Tree Protocol support (IEEE802...
