The purpose of this paper is to design and develop a MAC Transmitter on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) that converts 32 bit data in to 4 bit DATA for transmitter. In this paper we design the Ethernet (802.3) connection oriented LAN Medium Access Control Transmitter (MAC). It starts by describing the behavior of MAC circuit using VHISC Hardware Description Language (VHDL). A synthesized VHDL model of the chip is developed and implemented on target technology. This paper will concentrate
