Wide, pipelined internal data path architecture
Optimized transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) queues
32 KB configurable Rx and Tx first-in/first-out (FIFO)
IEEE 802.3x*-compliant flow-control support with software controllable pause
times and threshold values
Programmable host memory Rx buffers (256 B-16 KB)
Descriptor ring management hardware for Tx and Rx
Mechanism for reducing interrupts from Tx/Rx operations
Integrated PHY for 10/100/1000 Mbps (full- and half-duplex)
IEEE 802.3ab* auto-negotiation support
IEEE 802.3ab PHY compliance and compatibility
Tx/Rx IP, TCP, and UDP checksum offloading
Tx TCP segmentation
