The Ethernet MAC (Media Access Control), is designed for implementation of CSMA/CD LAN in accordance with the IEEE 802.3 standard. The MAC is handles the CSMA/CD protocol for transmission and reception of frames. It performs frame data encapsulation and de-capsulation, frame transmission and frame reception.

Key Features:

• The Ethernet IP Core consists of a number of individual modules including: The MAC (Media Access Control) module, formed by transmit,receive, and control modules
• The MII (Media Independent Interface) Management module
• The Host Interface

The Ethernet IP core uses three types of signals to connect to media:

• WISHBONE signals to connect to the host interface
• MII Management signals to connect to the PHY
• Reset signals ( for resetting different parts of the Ethernet IP core)
