• Reduced I/O pin requirements with RGMII
• On-chip RGMII timing delay
• Provides interoperability with IEEE standard devices
operating at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps at half- and
full-duplex
• Lowers system bill of materials (BOM) cost and simplifies
system design
• Requires no airflow or heatsink
• Eases system-level debug
• Reduces system design constraints to meet EMI emissions
standards
• Cable diagnostic function characterizes cable plant condition
and immediately indicates cabling issues
• Prevents erroneous equipment return due to bad cable plants
• Prevents manufacturing fallout due to bad cable plants
• High CESD tolerance prevents equipment damage and return
• Operates with larger packets for wider range of packet
protocol support and improved efficiency
• Ease of manufacturing with JTAG support, simplified power
supply, and multiple MAC interfaces
