XILINX DEMONSTRATES HIGH-PERFORMANCE VIRTEX-4 FPGAS
AT SUPERCOMM 2005

June 1, 2005

What: Ever increasing demand for information-video, voice or data-is driving demand for better network performance and data storage. Xilinx, Inc. with its programmable, flexible and high-performance Virtex -4 series FPGAs, is enabling both access and storage ends of the network by providing a single programmable platform capable of implementing system level communications applications.
When: June 6-9, 2005 (Exhibits June 7-9, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.)
Where: McCormick Place Convention Center, Chicago, Illinois (Booth 29046)

Xilinx Booth 29046 Demonstrations:

  • Virtex-4 FX: Multiple multi-gigabit transceivers (MGTs) running at different speeds (3G, 5G, 6.25G and 10G) simultaneously over a variety of channels, including backplanes, cables and optics

  • AdvancedTCA: RocketIO technology from Xilinx for ATCA backplane and Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) applications

  • Ethernet: 10GE/XAUI functionality in the Xilinx Virtex-II Pro using four RocketIO MGTs running at 3.125G speeds.

  • PCI Express: World's First Low-Cost Programmable PCI Express Solution using a Spartan -3 FPGA and PCI Express PHY from Philips Semiconductor

  • Wireless: Xilinx OBSAI-RP3 wireless base station interface implementation in the Virtex-II Pro

  • POS-PHY: Packet-over-SONET with Xilinx SPI-4.2 solution and Intel Bachelor Framer

  • Xilinx Participating in the "AdvancedTCA in Asia" AdvancedTCA Forum 2005 Panel, Wednesday, June 8, 9:00 a.m. to 10:20 a.m., McCormick Place
    While the Advanced TCA is a worldwide specification, much of its early successes have been in Asia. Given the powerful manufacturing capabilities of the region and the propensity for using standards, the proliferation of AdvancedTCA solutions in Asia is expected to see strong growth. Join Xilinx representative, Delfin Rodillas, as he and fellow panelists explore what their respective companies have done so far and how they plan on maintaining leadership.
