Realtek RTL8324
The RTL8324 is a layer-2 switch controller that integrates 1.25Mbits of high-speed SSRAM, an 8K-entry MAC address lookup table, 24 Ethernet/Fast Ethernet MACs, and a switch engine into one chip. With QoS, Trunking, VLAN, bandwidth control, remote control, and an 0.18µm process, the RTL8324 is a cost effective switch controller for a 24-Port 10/100 dumb switch application. The RTL8324 provides 2-level priority queues for multimedia or realtime network applications.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Port trunking is supported on all ports to increase bandwidth. Load balancing and fault tolerance provide top performance and reliability. The CoS (Class of Service) can be port-based, IEEE 802.1p tag-based, and/or TCP/IP header TOS/DS field-based. The RTL8324 supports up to 32 VLAN groups that may be configured as port-based VLANs and/or IEEE 802.1Q tagged VLANs. ARP broadcast and Leaky VLAN are also supported. The RTL8324 supports diagnostics and analysis. Counters are included for: RX byte count, RX packet count, TX byte count, TX packet count, CRC error packet count, collision packet count, dropped packet count, and dropped byte count. The RTL8324 supports TX and RX bandwidth control on each port; 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 4Mbps, or 8Mbps may be selected in each direction. The RTL8324 provides for a Scan LED Group to display each port’s status, without extra component cost. A loop-detection function is provided to notify whether a network loop exists, either via a visual LED, or via a register flag for smart applications.
