| IP core firm Jennic has demonstrated its Serial RapidIO IP
operating in conjunction with solutions from other RapidIO
vendors.
“Jennic has implemented the IP core as a Serial RapidIO to
PCI bridge chip which has been instantiated in both an NEC
Electronics ISSP structured Asic and an Altera Stratix-GX
FPGA,” claimed the firm.
“Tests included passing RapidIO traffic between
Jennic’s IP core and a Freescale PowerQUICC III processor,
via a Serial RapidIO switch fabric composed of Tundra
Semiconductor’s Tsi568A Serial RapidIO switch devices and
under the control of Fabric Embedded Tools RapidFET
software.”
Sheffield’s Jennic developed an integrated Serial RapidIO
evaluation platform for the testing consisting of a PCI compliant
hardware inter-operability platform and a software package.
