Title
FX1000: a high performance single chip Gigabit Ethernet NIC
Abstract
We present the design of the FX1000, a high performance single chip Gigabit Ethernet NIC. With a 64 bit, 66 MHz PCI bus interface the chip can maintain a throughput of 2 Gbps between memory and the network. The 64-bit address also allows the FX1000 to address very large system memory. In addition, it transmits and receives packets with minimal assistance from the CPU. Furthermore, the FX1000 performs TCP checksum calculation and IEEE 802.1q virtual LAN processing in hardware.
