Chapter 11: LPC24XX Ethernet
– Memory traffic optimized by buffering and pre-fetching.
•
Enhanced Ethernet features:
– Receive filtering.
– Multicast and broadcast frame support for both transmit and receive.
– Optional automatic FCS insertion (CRC) for transmit.
– Selectable automatic transmit frame padding.
– Over-length frame support for both transmit and receive allows any length frames.
– Promiscuous receive mode.
– Automatic collision backoff and frame retransmission.
– Includes power management by clock switching.
– Wake-on-LAN power management support allows system wake-up: using the
receive filters or a magic frame detection filter.
•
Physical interface:
– Attachment of external PHY chip through standard Media Independent Interface
(MII) or standard Reduced MII (RMII) interface, software selectable.
– PHY register access is available via the Media Independent Interface Management
(MIIM) interface.
