The BCM5701 is a highly integrated solution combining triple-speed, IEEE 802.3 compliant media access controller (MAC), PCI and PCI-X bus interfaces, on-chip buffer memory, and integrated physical layer transceiver in a single device. The BCM5701 is fabricated in a low-voltage, 0.18-µm CMOS process, providing a low-power system solution. By itself the BCM5701 provides a complete, single-chip Gigabit Ethernet NIC or LOM solution. The BCM5701 includes a 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet MAC with full-/ half-duplex capability at all speeds, and a 10/100/1000 copper PHY. Support for the following 802.3 functions is featured in the MAC: VLAN tagging, layer 2 priority encoding, link aggregation, and full-duplex flow control. The device provides both PCI v2.2 and PCI-X v1.0 bus interfaces. The BCM5701 provides a large on-chip buffer memory for stand-alone operation. Dual on-chip, high-performance processors enable custom frame processing features, including TCP segmentation. The transceiver is fully compatible with the IEEE 802.3 standard for auto-negotiation of speed. Additionally, several Plug and Play enhancements have been added to make the device even more user friendly. A link quality indicator LED gives installers an instant visual indication if there are any issues with the wiring plant supporting operation at the desired speed, which include physical wiring defects or channel conditions, such as excessive cable length, return loss, crosstalk, echo, and noise. Broadcom’s remote cable management and diagnostics software can be used with the device to provide remote management of the cable and a first level of diagnostics and fault isolation. The BCM5701 continually monitors various channel conditions. The optional wire speed capability allows the BCM5701 to force autonegotiation to be automatically limited by the speed that the channel can reliably support, rather than the performance of the end equipment.
