What's the general way to incorporate handwritten module with TSE ethernet?

Suppose we have handwritten IP module that continuously reads data from ADC, processes it and writes to some on-chip fifo. Now we want to send those data via Ethernet. I got impression the common w...

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I just switched to SGMII instead of RGMII and managed to read out high level on bit 5 for Marvel. In both cases, I could see LED activity, duplex and 1G LED were on, but I assume the clocking is a bit more complex in the RGMII case, so maybe there was some problem there... Also I just figured out that due to the waitrequest signal I was able to read out the correct value only sometimes. When I was actually reading the value the reg_busy is low, so I know that the read out value is the one stored in the register... This explains why a lot of times I was reading out zeros, because I wasn't really reading... Now I will try by just configuring the MAC registers using Verilog and I hope it will work... Thanks anyway
