ADSP-BF537 Blackfin Processor Hardware Reference
• Flexible address filtering
• Flexible event detection for interrupt handling
• Validation of IP and TCP (payload) checksum
• Remote-wakeup Ethernet frames
• Network-aware system power management
The MAC is fully compliant to IEEE Std. 802.3-2002.
Interface Overview
illustrates the overall architecture of the Ethernet controller.
The central MAC block implements the Carrier Sense Multiple Access
with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) protocol for both half-duplex and
full-duplex modes.
The System Interface (SIF) block contains FIFOs for RX and TX data and
handles the synchronization of data between the MAC RX and TX data
streams and the Blackfin DMA controller.
The System Interface Registers (SIF_REG) block is an interface from the
Blackfin Peripheral Access Bus (PAB) to the internal registers in the MAC.
This block also generates the Ethernet event interrupt, and supports the
PHYINT
pin by which the PHY can notify the Blackfin processor when the
PHY detects changes to the link status, such as auto-negotiation or duplex
mode change.
The MAC Management Counters (MMC) block is an extended set of reg-
isters that collect various statistics compliant with IEEE 802.3 definitions
regarding the operation of the interface. They are updated for each new
transmitted or received frame.
