Ethernet 2.5 TSN MAC
Design IP
Overview

SmartDV’s Ethernet 2.5G TSN (Time-Sensitive Networking) MAC IP Core delivers deterministic, low-latency communication for time-critical applications such as industrial control systems, automotive Ethernet, and smart factory infrastructure. It brings together the benefits of TSN and 2.5G Ethernet speed to meet the requirements of next-generation time-aware networks.

The IP core implements key IEEE 802.1 TSN features including time-aware shaper (IEEE 802.1Qbv), frame preemption (IEEE 802.1Qbu/802.3br), and precise time synchronization (IEEE 802.1AS). It also supports VLAN-based prioritization, traffic policing, and scheduled traffic delivery to ensure high reliability and predictability.

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. Its modular architecture allows seamless integration with PHY interfaces such as GMII and XGMII, making it suitable for a wide range of time-sensitive Ethernet applications.
