Access ethernet MAC PHY

[narendiran1996]

Hello,

I am using Zybo Zynq-7000 ARM/FPGA SoC Trainer Board.

I wanted to access the Realtek RTL8211E-VL pins(MDIO, MDC,  RXD0-RXD3, RXCTL, RXC, TXD0-TXD3, etc) available through my verilog code. How to access it? Is it possible?

Hi @narendiran1996 ,

From the manual, the PHY is hard wired through MIO. What do you want to do with the ethernet pins?

My aim is to send and receive ethernet packets using the PL whithout PS. I wish to use the pins in PL along with Ethernet IP's availabe(like TEMAC). Is this possible with ZYBO FPGA?
