Introduction www.ti.com • Emulation support • Loopback mode 1.3 Functional Block Diagram Figure 1 shows the three main functional modules of the EMAC/MDIO peripheral: • EMAC control module • EMAC module • MDIO module The EMAC control module is the main interface between the device core processor and the EMAC module and MDIO module. The EMAC control module contains the necessary components to allow the EMAC to make efficient use of device memory, plus it controls device interrupts. The EMAC contr

www.ti.com Architecture The EMAC and MDIO interrupts are combined within the control module, so only the control module interrupt needs to be monitored by the application software or device driver. The EMAC control module combines the EMAC and MDIO interrupts and generates 4 separate interrupts to the ARM through the ARM interrupt controller. See Section 2.17.4 for details of interrupt multiplex logic of the EMAC control module. 1.4 Industry Standard(s) Compliance Statement The EMAC peripheral c

Architecture www.ti.com 2.2 Memory Map The EMAC peripheral includes internal memory that is used to hold information about the Ethernet packets received and transmitted. This internal RAM is 2K × 32 bits in size. Data can be written to and read from the EMAC internal memory by either the EMAC or the CPU. It is used to store buffer descriptors that are 4-words (16-bytes) deep. This 8K local memory holds enough information to transfer up to 512 Ethernet packets without CPU intervention. The packet

The transmit clock is a continuous clock that provides the timing reference for transmit operations. The EMAC_TXD and EMAC_TX_EN signals are tied to this clock. The clock is generated by the PHY and is 2.5 MHz at 10 Mbps operation and 25 MHz at 100 Mbps operation. EMAC_TXD[3-0] O Transmit data (EMAC_TXD). The transmit data pins are a collection of 4 data si

A brief overview of the Ethernet protocol is given in the following subsections. For in-depth information on the Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) Access Method, which is the Ethernet’s multiple access protocol, see the IEEE 802.3 standard document. 2.5.1 Ethernet Frame Format All the Ethernet technologies use the same frame s

www.ti.com Architecture 2.5.2 Ethernet’s Multiple Access Protocol Nodes in an Ethernet Local Area Network are interconnected by a broadcast channel, as a result, when an EMAC port transmits a frame, all the adapters on the local network receive the frame. Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) algorithms are used when the EMAC operates in half-duplex mode. When operating in full-duplex mode, there is no contention for use of a shared medium, since there are exactly two

Each descriptor Pointer describes a packet or a packet fragment. When a descriptor points to a single buffer packet or the first fragment of a packet, the start of packet (SOP) flag is set in the flags field. When a descriptor points to a single buffer packet or the last fragment of a packet, the end
