Fast Ethernet Controller (FEC)
MPC5566 Microcontroller Reference Manual, Rev. 2
15-4
Freescale Semiconductor
15.1.3
Features
The FEC incorporates the following features:
•
Support for three different Ethernet physical interfaces:
— 100-Mbps IEEE
®
802.3 MII
— 10-Mbps IEEE
®
802.3 MII
— 10-Mbps 7-wire interface (industry standard)
•
Built-in FIFO and DMA controller
•
IEEE
®
802.3 MAC (compliant with IEEE
®
802.3 1998 edition)
•
Programmable max frame length supports IEEE
®
802.1 VLAN tags and priority
•
IEEE
®
802.3 full duplex flow control
•
Support for full-duplex operation (200 Mbps throughput) with a system clock rate of 100 MHz
using the external FEC_TX_CLK or FEC_RX_CLK
•
Support for half-duplex operation (100 Mbps throughput) with a system clock rate of 50 MHz
using the external FEC_TX_CLK or FEC_RX_CLK
•
Retransmission from transmit FIFO following a collision (no system bus utilization)
•
Automatic internal flushing of the receive FIFO for runts (collision fragments) and address
recognition rejects (no system bus utilization)
•
Address recognition
— Frames with a broadcast address can be unconditionally accepted or rejected
— Exact match for single 48-bit individual (unicast) address
— Hash (64-bit) check of individual (unicast) addresses
— Hash (64-bit) check of group (multicast) addresses
— Promiscuous mode
•
RMON and IEEE
®
statistics
•
Interrupts for network activity and error conditions
15.2
Modes of Operation
The primary operational modes are described in this section.
15.2.1
Full and Half Duplex Operation
Use full duplex mode for point-to-point links between switches, or between an end node and a switch. Use
half duplex mode for connections between an end node and a repeater, or between repeaters. Select the
duplex mode using the TCR[FDEN] bit.
When configured for full duplex mode, flow control can be enabled. See the TCR[RFC_PAUSE] and
TCR[TFC_PAUSE] bits, the RCR[FCE] bit, and
Section 15.4.10, “Full Duplex Flow Control
,” for more
details.
