Overview
The Ethernet media access controller (MAC) is designed to support both 10 and 100 Mbps Ethernet/IEEE
802.3 networks. An external transceiver interface and transceiver function are required to complete the
interface to the media. The FEC supports three different standard MAC-PHY (physical) interfaces for
connection to an external Ethernet transceiver. The FEC supports the 10/100 Mbps MII and the 10
Mbps-only 7-wire interface, which uses a subset of the MII signals.
The descriptor controller is a RISC-based controller that provides the following functions in the FEC:
