BCM5715S

Dual-Port Gigabit Ethernet Controller with a PCI Express® Host Interface

Designed as a gigabit dual-port LAN controller for high-performance server applications, the BCM5715S combines dual 1000BASE-X MACs with dual 1000BASE-X SerDes transceivers, a 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 BCM5715S provides a single x4 PCI Express host interface and two GbE 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.
