UDP/IP – 100 GbE Protocol Hardware Stack

Overview

The DB-UDP-IP-100GbE-AMBA is a UDP/IP Hardware Stack / UDP Off-load Engine (UOE) with low latency, high-performance targeting 100 GbE network links. The DB-UDP-IP is a Verilog SoC IP Core targeting Intel/Altera and Xilinx FPGAs and ASIC/ASSP devices.

The image below depicts the UDP/IP Hardware Stack SoC IP Core embedded within an Altera / Xilinx FPGA device, connected on one side to a 100 GbE Ethernet MAC, and on the other side to the user application within the FPGA (i.e. either the FPGA logic fabric or embedded host processor).
