Ethernet Subsystem 10G/25G
Overview
Comcores Ethernet Subsystem is a silicon-agnostic, easy-to-use integration of 10G/25G Ethernet MAC and PCS for Time-Aware Applications. The Subsystem comes in different variations and can be delivered integrated with Time Stamping Unit, IEEE 1588 PTP Software Stack, and DMA Controller.
Comcores Ethernet Subsystem is a richly featured, fully configurable solution delivering best in market performance while still keeping size at a minimum. The Subsystem is ready for 5G applications and is thoroughly tested and verified, thus will reduce risk and save development time.

Key Features
Flexible
The subsystem consists of various IP blocks that can be selected or
deselected based on customers’ requirements. The main versions are:
01- Ethernet MAC and PCS
02- Ethernet MAC, PCS, and Timestamping Unit (TSU)
03- Ethernet MAC, PCS, and IEEE 1588 PTP (TSU and SW Stack)
04- Ethernet MAC, PCS, IEEE 1588 PTP (TSU and SW Stack), and DMA
*** Ethernet MAC can be replaced by TSN MAC in all versions
5G Ready

PTP profiles for 5G networks
Niklas Meyer Mortensen Jan 04 2022 The IEEE 1588 PTP standards provide a wealth of options and the basis for highly reliable and accurate time synchronization solutions. However, the time synchronization needs of specific applications in different industries can vary quite significantly. These specific needs are defined in separate PTP profile standards, often in collaboration with other industry standards organizations. For 5G, both IEEE and ITU-T provide relevant profiles that can be used to...
