7.11.1 Features
The Ethernet block and the CPU share a dedicated AHB subsystem that is used to access
the Ethernet SRAM for Ethernet data, control, and status information. All other AHB traffic
in the LPC2478 takes place on a different AHB subsystem, effectively separating Ethernet
activity from the rest of the system. The Ethernet DMA can also access off-chip memory
via the EMC, as well as the SRAM located on another AHB. However, using memory
other than the Ethernet SRAM, especially off-chip memory, will slow Ethernet access to
memory and increase the loading of its AHB.
The Ethernet block interfaces between an off-chip Ethernet PHY using the Media
Independent Interface (MII) or Reduced MII (RMII) protocol and the on-chip Media
Independent Interface Management (MIIM) serial bus.
