GigE Vision IP Core (GigEVCore2.2)

Product Description

GigE Vision is a standard communication protocol for vision applications based on the well-known Ethernet technology. It allows easy interfacing between GigE Vision devices and PCs running TCP/IP protocol family. Sensor to Image offers a set of IP cores and a development framework to build FPGA-based products using the GigE Vision interface. Due to the speed of GigE Vision, especially at speeds higher than 1 Gb/s, senders and receivers require a fast FPGA-based implementation of the embedded GigE core. GigE Vision reference designs supporting speeds up to 25G are available for AMD 7 Series, Ultrascale and Ultrascale+ devices.


Key Features and Benefits

  • Control Channel handled by embbeded CPU
  • Full functional reference designs for sending (camera) or receiving (host) applications available
  • Packet Resend, PTP/IEEE1588 and ACTION command handling in hardware supported
  • Implementation of the AIA GigE Vision Protocol
  • Hardware Implementation of Stream Channel to reach maximum troughput
