SmartDV’s Ethernet 100G MAC IP Core is a high-performance solution engineered for demanding data communication applications across networking, cloud infrastructure, data centers, and high-performance computing (HPC) environments. It supports a wide range of Ethernet speeds including 1G, 2.5G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G, and 100G, offering exceptional flexibility and scalability for system designers building multi-rate Ethernet systems.
Fully compliant with IEEE 802.3 and 802.1 standards, the IP core supports key features such as full-duplex operation, programmable interframe gap, VLAN tagging, priority-based flow control (PFC), checksum insertion and verification, and optional support for Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE). It includes a robust set of statistics counters and supports jumbo frames, frame filtering, and advanced error detection mechanisms to ensure reliable and efficient data transfer even under high-throughput conditions.
Designed for flexibility, the IP core is highly configurable to meet specific design requirements, supporting both ASIC and FPGA implementations while optimizing for area, power, and performance. With proven deployment on FPGA platforms and a modular architecture, the Ethernet 100G MAC IP seamlessly integrates with a variety of industry-standard PHY interfaces including XGMII, XLGMII, CGMII, and USXGMII. Its configurability and performance make it a strong choice for applications requiring ultra-low latency and high data integrity in bandwidth-intensive environments.
