This is the EthernetConsole Example Design targeting the XEM8320 Opal Kelly development board. At least one SZG-ENET1G is required to run this example design. Product pages for these are at the following:
This example design's overview, requirements, tutorials, and how-to's are located at:
The pre-built bitfile is located in the repository's Releases. Note that this was built with an evaluation license and operation of the IP will halt after 2-8 hours from loading the bitfile.
Our modified AMD Tri-Mode EthernetConsole MAC example design sources have been provided. We have annotated changes to the AMD sources with comments // Opal Kelly.
These comments will either be // Opal Kelly additions or // Opal Kelly edits.
You can search for these comments within these sources to determine what was changed from the example design provided by AMD.
Important changes to these sources are highlighted below.
- PHY configuration state machine now specifically targets the DP83867 PHY onboard the SZG-ENET1G.
- Added controllability and observability of the example design facilitated by the FrontPanel interface.
- Added functionality to set destination and source MAC addresses, inject errors, and count the number of packets sent and received.
