POS PHY L2 Solutions
Introduction
Spring Electronics support variety POS L2 solutions, POS PHY L2 IP Core and up to Multi POS PHY L2 Ports solutions implemented on single chip solution.
This IP Core provides complete solution for transport POS PHY L2 ports over ETH.
The characteristics of this technique include low latency variance, remote performance monitoring capability, remote fault indication capability, active flow control in burst traffic condition and ease of use and maintenance. This IP core use dynamic buffer control which provides maximum frame buffer size and maximize memory efficiency.
