I assume you are talking about the Ethernet that is part of the DE1-SoC HPS portion. If so, the Ethernet MAC is a hard IP that is part of the HPS - thus you don't have to use any soft IP to instantiate it. If you boot the DE1-SoC using the provided Linux SD image, you will find the Ethernet already usable :)

That is, unless you are referring to the bare metal drivers for the Ethernet... which is a different story all together

[bare metal drivers for Ethernet]!!

Hi,

I'm working on a project in which i need to transfer data from the sdram of the hps to the pc through the Ethernet. knowing that i have developped a bare metal c program to get the data from the FPGA to the SDRAM and perform the data treatement. now i need drivers for Ethernet for a bare metal project.

do you have any example for that?

Thanks in advance
