All I know is that it can support > 115K as Silversurfer can run at this speed and maybe faster. I guess that Delfina requires it to run much faster than this ?

you mean something like this :-)  i try it with my subway. poseidon recognise it but there isn't any proper .class available.
the comment of Chris Hodges for it is:
> Uhm, that's the Ethernet adapter again (BTW: I've got  an  adapter  with  a similar chipset, so the chances are not that bad for support sometime).
:flame:

The theoretical maximum throughput of the 8 bit clockport is 3.5 million bytes/sec but this will never be achieved without DMA.

The clock port is 8 bits wide, and hangs off the 14 MHz 68020 bus. It takes 4 clock cycles to access this port so 14/4 = 3.5 Meg but I am unsure if you need to add another 4 clock cycles for MC68020 operation, if so this would reduce the bandwidth to 1.75 MByte/sec. My A1200 and logic analyser are too far apart to check this

I collected some note, a long time ago and put them on Aminet at http://de5.aminet.net/hard/hack/clock_port.txt

Have fun,

I am also looking at Ethernet controller ICs - farnell have some interesting candidates...

The most interesting (only 10mbps though) ethernet chip Ive seen (and bought) was the CP2200 from Silicon Laboratories Inc. (Available from Digikey)

It looks nice and easy to use.

@Oli_hd

so nothing concrete yet then ?
nowt set down in PCB ?
subtle hint !

@CLS2086: on the manual of my subway it was writen something about this. i think an email at e3b won't harm :-)


-edit-
or at amigakit.com

I was hoping to find something in a 0.1" DIL, to make it easier on me - havent done PCBs since well school, really!
hoped I might -ahem- 'prototype' on veroboard ! ;-)

I'd rather that happened with 5mm QFP than a 3cm DIL!
