C_XAUI_CONFIGURATION: XAUI configuration vector. See Xilinx XAUI core documentation for more information.

C_XGMAC_CONFIGURATION: 10G Ethernet MAC configuration vector. See Xilinx 10G Ethernet MAC core documentation for more information.

C_M_AXIS_DATA_WIDTH: Data width of the master AXI4-Stream (RX) bus. Must be 64

C_BASEADDR: Base address value of the core.

C_HIGHADDR: High address value of the core.

Register map

0x0 : TX Timestamp enable

0x4 : Tx Timestamp offset

Description

This pcore is a combination of Xilinx XAUI and 10G MAC IP cores, in addition to an AXI4-Stream adapter. Incoming XAUI signals from AEL2005 are firstly transformed into XGMII signals by Xilinx XAUI core. The XGMII signals are read in by Xilinx 10G MAC and finally transformed into AXI4-Stream. The TX side follows the exact same path but in the opposite direction.

There is one additional AXI4-Stream bus for transmitting bad_frame signal provided by Xilinx 10G MAC. For more information about NetFPGA Standard IP Interfaces, please see here.

Licenses

To build a bistream with this core included, the end-user must obtain a license for the Xilinx 10G MAC. Universities can usually obtain a free license through the Xilinx University Program. Please follow the procedure as described in Licensing.
