The B210 is a USB3 device ... there is no ethernet anywhere in there.

Hire someone ...
Sorry, but it's one of those "If you have to ask, you're not
qualified". You're going to need FPGA design experience, embedded
software experience including linux kernel, electronics design
experience ...
That's easily a few man-month of work for an engineer already
experienced in all those domains.

Cheers,

 Sylvain

Hello,

Thank you for your answers. Actually, we need to achieve this task.


This task should be performed in B210 (I guess, ethernet MAC is drived 
by FPGA in here). So, how can i start to this task ? Where can i find an 
example or some information to drive built-in ethernet MAC in FPGA ? It 
will be appreciated, if you can give a point to start.


Best regards.

None of this is trivial however ...

But it is possible. I'd love to see someone try it.

You should check the schematic, but as I recall the ethernet interface
is connected directly to the ARM and not via the FPGA fabric.

[USRP-users] Connect Eth Phy to FPGA

2019-05-21 Thread Ramazan Çetin via USRP-users

Hello,

We want to use E310 as a peripheral network device like N210. We want 
the RF samples come to ethernet interface through FPGA without passing 
from CPU. In short, we don't want to use CPU. So, can we configure FPGA 
to achieve this task? (Connecting ethernet interface directly to FPGA)


Best regards.
