Gigabit Ethernet

Former Member


Hi,

1) How to transfer DDR3/BRAM data to PC via Gigabit Ethernet?

2) What are the available C libraries to implement Gigabit Ethernet on ZedBoard with ARM processor?

3) Is there any reference design available for Gigabit Ethernet implementation on ZedBoard with ARM processor?

Thank you.

    1.  There are a number of ways to get data from the DDR3/BRAM to a PC.  If you are running on bare-metal (no Operating System) you can use Light Weight IP Stack (LWIP) which is provided for you as a free library within SDK.  If you are running Linux, you can just use the standard C libraries to write a C program, or any other language you prefer.

    If you just have a dataset (say a char array) then you can easily just point LWIP to the array and send it out.  I believe LWIP also supports jumbo frames.

    2.  See my answer to #1.

    3.  I do not know of any at the moment.  If you are using Linux you can use any number of examples written for that.
