The IEEE 802.3by Reed-Solomon Forward Error Correction core implements the Reed-Solomon Forward Error Correction (RS-FEC) sublayer for 25GBASE-R PHY as described in IEEE P802.3by.
Implements the 25G Ethernet Media Access Controller (MAC) with a Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) as specified by the 25G Ethernet Consortium. MAC and PCS/PMA or PCS/PMA alone are available.
This application note targets the Ethernet designs of UltraScale architecture that require dynamic switching between 1Gb/s to 10Gb/s using high-speed serial I/O links.
