The Arkville Data Mover serves as a high-throughput and low-latency communication bridge between FPGA logic and host memory, capable of transferring data up to 60 GBytes/s, or 480 Gbps, bidirectionally. By acting as a direct conduit for data, it eliminates the bottlenecks typically associated with traditional CPU core usage and memory copy processes, presenting hardware engineers with industry-standard RTL interfaces and offering software engineers seamless APIs for efficient data manipulation.
Arkville supports concurrent, full-duplex data operations with both upstream and downstream movements, integrating AXI streaming interfaces to enhance packet handling. Designed to adhere to prevalent standards like DPDK and AXI, Arkville ensures compatibility with a wide array of packet processing systems and future-proofs applications through vendor-agnostic support for AMD/Xilinx and Intel FPGA devices. Its open-source driver integrated into DPDK further simplifies design workflows for developers.
Packed with example designs, Arkville empowers engineers to accelerate their product development cycles significantly. The component incorporates burst traffic processing with AXI streams, maintaining up to 1 Tbps within two 128 byte wide streams operating at 500 MHz, and is particularly effective in applications necessitating high-volume data transfers, such as networking and storage solutions.
