MU9C8328A-RDC中文资料MUSIC数据手册PDF规格书

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The MU9C8328A speeds up bridging operations using Ethernet controller chips with serial NRZ data outputs, such as AMD’s MACE™, National’s SONIC™, and Motorola’s QUICC™ controllers, by parsing the Ethernet frame independently of the Ethernet controller device, and notifying it whether to accept or reject the incoming frame. The MU9C8328A supports both positive and negative filtering on the Destination address and learning of new Source addresses, by efficiently controlling the compare activities of the MUSIC LANCAM Family. Filtering and learning routines are user configurable. These routines are automatically invoked by the internal state machine based on the contents of the incoming frame and the configuration settings. For aging and other housekeeping routines, the MU9C8328A provides the proper sequencing and timing of LANCAM accesses for an external processor.
