New platform enables leading companies to develop their USB 3.0 solutions more quickly and efficiently
PLDA, the industry leader in high-speed interconnect IP, today announced that it has begun shipping the first SuperSpeed USB Host Bus Adapter (HBA) development platform. This HBA platform will enable leading-edge companies to develop and test USB 3.0 semiconductor designs or USB 3.0 software stacks more easily and efficiently, helping get them to market quicker. The flexible FPGA-based platform can also be configured with a USB 3.0 device reference design to help test host applications and software.
Key components of the PLDA USB 3.0 HBA development platform include:
PCI Express based USB 3.0 Host Bus Adapter card
xHCI compliant device driver and API
Complete hardware and software documentation
The PLDA USB 3.0 HBA provides a range of advanced features including:
1 or 2 USB 3.0/2.0 Host ports, 1 USB 3.0 Device port
Optimized architecture and buffering allows for ~400Mbytes/sec of sustained throughput
“From the launch of SuperSpeed USB, PLDA has been a leader in providing USB 3.0 IP and development kits,” said Stephane Hauradou, PLDA’s CTO. “As an industry pioneer, with over 1,000 high-speed interface IP designs in production, PLDA has proven to be the safe, flexible path to a successful SuperSpeed USB implementation.”
