Hello,
I am currently working on the ENET module. I would like to know if it consumes any shared resources during the MAC receive process other than the "Write FIFO data and frame state" step ?
Best regards
Hi,
Thank you for your interest in NXP Semiconductor products,
It does not. The MAC receive process is:
• Check frame framing
• Remove frame preamble and frame SFD field
• Discard frame based on frame destination address field
• Terminate pause frames
• Check frame length
• Remove payload padding if it exists
• Calculate and verify CRC-32
• Write received frames in the core receive FIFO
All of it is performed in ENET module itself.
Regards
