Abstract
A circuit includes a buffer, a first programmable real-time unit (PRU), and a second PRU. The first PRU is coupled to the buffer and configured to couple to an input interface. The first PRU is further configured to receive first data sampled by the input interface and receive second data sampled by the input interface. The first PRU is further configured to multiplex the first data and the second data to generate multiplexed data and transmit the multiplexed data to the buffer. The second PRU is coupled to the buffer and configured to couple to an output interface. The second PRU is further configured to obtain the multiplexed data from the buffer and transmit the multiplexed data via an Ethernet physical layer.
