Second Edition CORE Solutions Data Book
With Seven New AllianceCORE Products
The new, expanded
edition of the CORE Solutions Data Book is available. Over 45 products
from both Xilinx and our AllianceCORE partners have been added since
the first edition, published in May of 1997.
Highlights of these new products include:
- Version 2.0 of the LogiCORE PCI interface that achieves fully compliant, zero wait-state operation for 132 MBps sustained burst bandwidth.
- LogiCORE and AllianceCORE products that support the new Spartan family of low-cost, ASIC-replacement FPGAs.
- Communications and networking products, including ATM, HDLC and T1 Framer cores.
- Complete RISC Processor solutions, including Xilinx-based prototyping boards and development software.

New AllianceCORE Products
Available for the first time are seven new products from five
AllianceCORE partners. The products include predefined communications,
RISC processor and processor peripheral cores for use in Xilinx FPGAs,
and board-level evaluation tools for prototyping FPGA-based system designs. Datasheets for each product are in the new CORE Solutions data book.
