4. Functional Description
The Low Latency Ethernet 10G MAC Intel® FPGA IP core handles the flow of data between a client and an Ethernet network through an Ethernet PHY. On the transmit path, the MAC IP core accepts client frames and constructs Ethernet frames by inserting various control fields, such as checksums before forwarding them to the PHY. Similarly, on the receive path, the MAC accepts Ethernet frames via a PHY, performs checks, and removes the relevant fields before forwarding the frames to the client. You can configure the MAC IP core to collect statistics on both transmit and receive paths.
