7.3.1.5.1 Data Generator and Checker

DP83TC812 supports inbuilt pseudo-random data generator and checker which are useable in conjunction with Loopback modes to check the data path. Program the data generator to generate either user defined MAC packets or PRBS stream.

Following parameters of generated MAC packets are configurable (see the registers<0x061B>,register<0x061A> and register<0x0624> for required configuration):

  • Packet length
  • Inter-packet gap
  • Defined number of packets to be sent or continuous transmission
  • Packet data-type: incremental/fixed/PRBS
  • Number of valid bytes per packet
