Vivado and RMII

Open wfjm opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

There are quite a few Ethernet MAC cores, but mostly in Verilog. I've a project written in VHDL, use GHDL, and therefore looked for a core written in VHDL, and found this project. The core was tested with a Spartan-6, thus with legacy ISE and uses the MII interface. One possible application would be with a Digilent Arty board (with Artix-7). Another application would be a different Artix-7 board with a LAN8720 based PHY attached via a Pmod. Such a Pmod, e.g. from Waveshare, offers an RMII interface.

Two questions:

  • was this core ever tested with Vivado ?
  • it it possible to adapt it for an RMII interface ?
