PLDA, the industry leader in PCI Express® interface IP solutions, today announced availability of their XpressRICH5™ PCIe® 5.0 Controller IP. PLDA’s XpressRICH5 supports rev. 0.7 of the PCIe 5.0 Specification and is available for ASIC, SoC and FPGA implementation, allowing early adopters to seamlessly improve their link throughtput to 32 GT/s per lane and reduce their overall latency. This level of performance is highly anticipated by developers of leading edge applications in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), data center storage and networking, and High Performance Computing (HPC).
PLDA ANNOUNCES XpressCCIX™ CONTROLLER IP SUPPORTING THE CACHE COHERENT INTERFACE FOR ACCELERATORS (CCIX™) STANDARD
PLDA®, the industry leader in PCI Express® interface IP solutions today released its XpressCCIX IP, supporting CCIX™ or Cache Coherent Interconnect for Accelerators (X). The decision to support CCIX is fueled by an increasing demand for higher throughput for PCIe-based systems, driven largely by enterprise and data center customers.
The CCIX Consortium has developed the Cache Coherent Interconnect for Accelerators (X) protocol to enable a new class of interconnect focused on emerging acceleration applications such as machine learning, network processing, storage off-load, in-memory data base and 4G/5G wireless technology.
PLDA Solutions for Test and Validation of PCIe 4.0 Devices
In addition to their core business of licensing PCIe semiconductor IP, PLDA has a long history of robust hardware designs. PLDA initially built its first PCIe 4.0 platform, Gen4SWITCH, as a way to demonstrate the PCIe 4.0 technology and to test designs at PCIe 4.0 speed for its own needs. Widely used during tradeshows and at PCI-SIG workshops as an early PCIe 4.0 host platform, Gen4SWITCH has become a star product in high demand, and has spawned a complete Test and Validation product line, targeted specifically at the needs of PCIe 4.0 SoC designers and system vendors.
PLDA ANNOUNCES NEW TEST AND VALIDATION PLATFORMS FOR PCIe®
PLDA has leveraged their extensive PCIe expertise to provide a comprehensive suite of Test and Validation solutions for the PCI Express protocol, enabling faster and more affordable validation of PCIe silicon and devices
