[semi-OT] Ethernet references - drproton2003 - Dec 1 13:53:55 2006
hey all,
I've worked a bit with ethernet in the past, using things like
ethernut. I am looking looking forward to starting some more advanced
ethernet projects. I don't have as much of an understanding as I
would like of low-level ethernet (i.e. MAC, MII, PHY, ,magnetics,
frames, layers, etc). If anyone can reccomend some websites/books/etc
where I can gain a better understanding of these things it would be
greatly appreciated. I would certainly be willing to invest some time
and money into a good book on the subject. Information relevant to
embedded systems is preferable. Thanks

All of the 802 (i.e. Ethernet) working group specifications are
available FOC at www.ieee.org, see
http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/
Though, this site mostly details with specification, not
implementation.
To find out more about how these specs were implememented, you need
to look at various chip manufacturers websites.
A lot of the early stuff (<100Meg etc) is now going obsolete, so is
harder to find.
