External Peripheral Bus Controller (EBC)
The External Bus Controller (EBC) transfers data between the PLB and external memory or peripheral devices
attached to the external peripheral bus. The EBC allows for direct attachment of memory devices such as ROM
and SRAM, DMA device-paced memory devices, and DMA peripheral devices.
Features include:
Ethernet Controller
Two 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports are supported.
Features include:
AMCC Proprietary
