Tool/software:
Hello,
Are there any TI Ethernet solutions(Phy IC, Retimer/Redriver, etc) that have built-in Forward Error Correction (FEC)?
Thanks,
JH

Hi,
The DP83865 has an FEC decoder, however this part is in the process of being discontinued:
Our other PHYs do not support Forward error correction.
For our retimer/drivers:
1. If you want to redrive/retime a signal that already has FEC data, that is no problem (assuming it's within our supported data rates)
2. If you want to encode/decode FEC data with one of our devices, we cannot do that
Best,
Shane
