Thankx Pankaj.... This gives me a general idea of the schemes but could you provide me some tutorial which gives detail description which could help me with implementing a hardware? I guess MII is the best one to start with.
hi haneet.. what you read at Wikipedia is really good at theoretical.. for implementation purpose may i know what your applications and processors are?
I have worked on these interfaces long time back.. The tutorials for implementation purpose that you want, you can find on either Intel or Marvell Semi website.. I have used Marvell 88E6218 in one of my previous design, which is a gateway router and Intel LXT071 which is a PHY. You can search for semiconductor companies' websites which work on Ethernet applications. you can find many tutorials there. If still you need anything, revert back. for your help
