Hello,

I think the separation has historical reasons.
For AT91RM and AT91SAM existed separate drivers and separate arch.
I remeber in older datascheets the ethernet inteface also marked with MACB.
In my opinion, the at91_emac the latest drivers (NET_MULTI api SoC
access via c structurs).

But I dont know the exact differences are not of single use devices.
Please ask Xu, Hong

Best regards

Jens
