ENET IEEE-1588 Driver
38.1 Hardware Operation
ENET IEEE-1588 driver performs a set of functions that enabling precise
synchronization of clocks in network communication.
The driver requires a protocol stack to complete IEEE-1588 full protocol. It complies
with the IXXAT stack interfaces.
To allow for IEEE 1588 or similar time synchronization protocol implementations, the
ENET MAC is combined with a time-stamping module to support precise time stamping
of incoming and outgoing frames. 1588 Support is enabled when the register bit
ENA_1588 is set to '1'.
