Featured Product: 1394b FPGA LLC IP Core Extended VersionDapTechnology proudly announces the availability of the Extended version of its FireLink® 1394b Link Layer IP core. FireLink®, implemented in industry-standard VHDL code, is available initially for Xilinx FPGA devices and soon for Altera. The product is targeted at applications requiring up to 800 Mbits/Sec of bandwidth and embedded designs requiring a high performance general purpose IEEE 1394b Link Layer Controller.
While the basic version targets system implementations with low bandwidth requirements the extended version takes full advantage of the DMA architecture and is optimized for data throughput. “Scalability coupled with a high performance DMA architecture answers the call for bandwidth-hungry IEEE 1394b applications”, says Cor Jansen, CTO of DapTechnology. Mr. Jansen adds, “The FireLink® Extended IEEE 1394b Link Layer Controller IP core provides an additional 1394 building block which aids in accelerating and simplifying the IEEE 1394b solution development process”.
The industrial applications of FireLink® are quite broad and include robotics, machine vision, wide format digital printing and medical imaging. Furthermore, the FireLink® LLC Core is ideal for use in Consumer Electronics equipment such as Set Top Boxes, DVD peripherals and High Definition A/V equipment. And the exclusive support of AS5643 make it very well positioned for aerospace and defense applications.
