Abstract
A clock interface for a media access controller in a programmable logic device is described. The media access controller includes a clock generator for providing a clock signal to configured configurable routing of the programmable logic device to obtain a loaded version thereof. The loaded clock signal is provided to a clock network of the media access controller and to a delay cell of the media access controller to obtain an indication of the loading by the user instantiated design.
