The IP (Intellectual Property) for Ethernet Interface is a hardware module designed to execute the MAC (media access control) service on the Ethernet standard. The goal of this IP module is to provide an easy way to develop new devices with connection to an Ethernet LAN (Local Area Network). The standard protocols used make this IP module reusable for different designs with an interface to Ethernet LANs. The Ethernet Interface IP is described and simulated in VHDL
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
