10G/25G UDP/IP Hardware Protocol Stack

  • Part Number: UDPIP-10G/25G
  • Vendor: CAST, Inc.
  • Partner Tier: Elite Certified

Product Description

The core is a UDP/IP hardware protocol stack. Designed for standalone operation, the core offloads the host processor from the task of UDP/IP encapsulation and enables media streaming with speeds up to 25Gbps even in processor-less designs.

Trouble-free operation is ensured through run-time programmability of all the required network parameters (local, destination and gateway IP addresses; UDP ports; and MAC address). The core implements the ARP Protocol, which is critical for multiple access networks, and the Echo Request and Reply Messages of the ICMP widely used to test network connectivity. It can use a static IP address or automatically request and acquire an IP address from a DHCP server. Finally, the core supports 801.1Q tagging, and is suitable for operation in a Virtual LAN.

The core is easy to integrate in systems with or without a host processor. Packet data can be read/written to the core via dedicated streaming-capable interfaces, or via registers mapped on an SoC bus.
