Difference of two Altera TSE-Ethernet Macs

Hello,

mouser.com offers two different Altera Triple Speed Ethernet MAC IP-Cores.

IP-TRIETHERNET (costs about 500 Euro)

and

IP-TRIETHERNETF (costs about 5000 Euro)

The only noticeable difference is the price. Can anyone help me?

Thanks,

lovestern

    When we ask our distributor (Arrow) they have only one IP product for the TSE and it is about 500 Euro. I have no idea what the other one is.

    Better ask mouser. It might be floating seat vs. node-locked license option?

    IP-TRIETHERNETF includes 1588 time stamping

    IP-TRIETHERNET does not

    Bit of an overvalued 1588 solution...I think Macnica's was quite a bit cheaper.
