LogiCORE PCI32 Virtex

The LogiCORE PCI32 Virtex interfaces from Xilinx enables designers to implement a 32-bit, 33 MHz PCI interface in a Standard Virtex FPGA, fully compliant with the v2.2 PCI specification, supporting a sustained throughput of 132 MB/sec.

LogiCORE PCI32 Spartan & Spartan XL

The LogiCORE PCI32 Spartan and Spartan XL Master/Slave interfaces enable designers to integrate a fully compliant PCI interface with dual-port FIFOs and user logic in one FPGA device at a price below standard PCI chips. Because Xilinx PCI solution eliminates the need for external FPGAs in the system, the cost can be reduced by $7 per board in volume production.

LogiCORE PCI32 4000

The LogiCORE PCI32 4000 products are targeted to Xilinx 4000XLA FPGA family. This solution provides the customer with additional density and flexibility. For example, in the XC4062XLA, a user has up to 130,000 gates behind the PCI interface for custom functionality.
