COMIT COMPLETES OC48 - UTOPIA L3 INTERFACE BRIDGE DESIGN USING XILINX VIRTEX™-II PRO PLATFORM FPGA

Santa Clara, California - March 12, 2002: Comit Systems, Inc., the contract engineering company, announced today that it has completed a OC48 to UTOPIA L3 Bridge design on the Xilinx Virtex-II Pro Platform FPGA. OC48 (2.5 Gbps) full duplex serial backplane interfaces were provided through Xilinx Rocket I/O™ transceivers.

Parallel and serial loopback in hardware were controlled through Virtex-II Pro’s embedded IBM® PowerPC™ PPC405 D5 RISC CPU, using the PPC Device Control Register (DCR) interface. The PPC405 incorporates the IBM CoreConnect™ architecture implementation of the Processor Local Bus (PLB), Onchip Peripheral Bus (OPB) and DCR. In a separate design Comit interfaced its FFT and DDR controller IP cores to the PPC405 PLB and exercised the multipliers in the Virtex-II Pro device.

Comit is a Xilinx Xperts Partner. Comit is also an IBM CoreConnect licensee.
