Udviklingsprogram for Rapid IO Gen2
IDT introducer nu et udviklngsprogram for produkter og teknologier, der sigter mod RapidIO Gen2 løsninger (in english).
IDT announces the availability of its Serial RapidIO Gen2 program consisting of a comprehensive portfolio of IP, switches, evaluation platforms and tools. RapidIO Gen2 addresses designers’ increased bandwidth requirements by doubling the speed of RapidIO Rev 1.3, increasing link speeds to 6.25Gbaud and by offering more port choices, increasing flexibility and system level features.
At the same time, IDT announced that its Serial RapidIO Gen2 endpoint Intellectual Property (IP) has been selected by Texas Instruments (TI) for use in its wireless optimised digital signal processors (DSPs). The combination of the IDT Serial RapidIO Gen2 products with the TI next-generation DSPs provide a turnkey solution for industry-leading performance and interoperability in 3G and 4G wireless platforms.
The combined IDT/TI solution produces significantly higher speeds and control of the switch fabric traffic in networks with large clusters of DSPs, which is critical to achieve the next node of performance in 3G and 4G wireless applications.
The IDT Serial RapidIO Gen2 solutions, which are backwards compatible with RapidIO 1.3, will allow system designers to improve overall system level performance in wireless, video/imaging and military applications. This is achieved by the higher lane speeds of the Serial RapidIO Gen2 specification, which runs at double the speed of the current 1.3 version solutions — all in the same small package form factors.
The IDT Serial RapidIO Gen2 program builds on its industry-leading portfolio of version 1.3 products and tools, which are in volume production shipments in WiMAX, HSPA, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, video and military applications today. The IDT solutions leverage best-in-class technology from its CPS and TSI product lines, with the latter being acquired from Tundra Semiconductor Corporation in early 2009.
The IDT Serial RapidIO Gen2 endpoint IP will be generally available for microprocessor, DSP, field programmable gate array (FPGA) and ASIC vendors in Q4 2009.
