SCC Ethernet Mode
MPC8260 PowerQUICC II Family Reference Manual, Rev. 2
Freescale Semiconductor 25-3
Two nonaggressive backoff modes
Automatic frame retransmission (until the attempt limit is reached)
Automatic discard of incoming collided frames
Delay transmission of new frames for specified interframe gap
Maximum 10 Mbps bit rate
Optional full-duplex support
Back-to-back frame reception
Detection of receive frames that are too long
Multibuffer data structure
Supports 48-bit addresses in three modes
Physical: One 48-bit address recognized or 64-bin hash table for physical addresses
Logical: 64-bin group address hash table plus broadcast address checking
Promiscuous: Receives all addresses, but discards frame if REJECT is asserted
External content-addressable memory (CAM) support on serial bus interfaces
Up to eight parallel I/O pins can be sampled and appended to any frame
Optional heartbeat indication
Transmitter network management and diagnostics
