The 10GEDEK IP is A.L.S.E's high-speed Ethernet IP designed for 10-Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. It expands upon the processor-less architecture pioneered with the original GEDEK IP, offering a tenfold increase in data rate capabilities. This IP addresses the challenges of managing such high data rates on FPGAs, optimizing bandwidth and reducing overhead typically associated with traditional Ethernet implementations.
With the capability of reaching a full 1.2 GigaBytes per second throughput, the 10GEDEK IP is crafted to facilitate seamless and efficient communication between PCs and FPGAs using cost-effective, standard 10G Ethernet components, including affordable network cards and cables. Its design ensures robust performance, accommodating copper and long-distance optical connections, thereby offering extensive operational flexibility.
Targeted at various FPGA platforms from Altera/Intel to AMD/Xilinx, the IP is complemented by simple yet powerful APIs. These APIs facilitate easy programming across multiple languages, from traditional compiled languages to flexible scripting solutions such as Python. This adaptability, combined with no need for specialized PC software setup, underscores the 10GEDEK's role as a cutting-edge solution for high-performance networking duties.
