Overview
|
|
Xilinx provides fixed netlist LogiCORE solutions for both the single channel and the 32-channel HDLC controller
cores for data networking applications. By using a Xilinx HDLC solution, users can significantly reduce implementation
cost and accelerate time-to-market compared to fixed function Application Specific Standard Product (ASSP) alternatives.
These cores are available immediately and support Xilinx Virtex, Virtex-E and Spartan-II FPGA families. These new
cores create an ideal solution for many data networking markets such as packet over SONET, cable modems, frame
relay switches and video conferencing over ISDN.

The Basics of HDLC
HDLC, high-level data link control, is a popular ITU defined protocol used in data networking applications such
as cellular base station switch controllers, frame relay switches, high bandwidth WAN links, xDSL and modem error
correction. This protocol is responsible for transmitting data between network points. It organizes data into units,
following the bit oriented packet transmission mode, and sends it across a network to a destination that verifies
its successful arrival. The data stream and transmission rate is controlled from the network node (PCM highway
clock) with a back pressure mechanism. This eliminates additional synchronization and buffering of the data at
the network interface. Different variations of the protocol are used in different networks. For example, ISDN's
D-channel uses a slightly modified version of HDLC.
