• Manufacturer Part Number: bcm5715c
• Description: Dual-port Gigabit Ethernet Controller With A Pci Express Host Interface
• Manufacturer: Broadcom Corp.

The BCM5715C is a fourth-generation 10/100/1000BASE-T dual-port
LAN controller for high-performance server applications. The device
combines dual triple-speed IEEE 802.3-compliant Media Access
Controllers (MACs) with dual 10/100/1000 Ethernet Transceivers, a
Universal Management Port (UMP), and an on-chip memory buffer in a
single device. The device is fabricated in a 1.2V CMOS process,
providing a low-power system solution.
The BCM5715C provides a single x4 PCI Express host interface and two
Gigabit Ethernet Controllers. Each function has its own PCI
configuration space. Each Ethernet controller has a dedicated on-chip
high-performance RISC processor for custom frame features.

The BCM5715C supports a Universal Management Port (UMP)
interface for high-speed system management communications via the
dual Gigabit Ethernet ports. The BCM5715C performs all physical layer
functions for 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-T, and 10BASE-T on standard
Category 5 UTP cable. Based on proven DSP technology, the device is a
highly integrated solution combining digital adaptive equalizers, ADCs,
PLLs, line drivers, echo cancelers, crosstalk cancellers, and all other
required support circuitry. Two full-featured MACs provide full-duplex
and half-duplex modes at 1000
Mbps.
