UDP/IP – 10 GbE Protocol Hardware Stack

Overview

The DB-UDP-IP-10GbE-AMBA is a UDP/IP Hardware Stack / UDP Off load Engine (UOE) with low latency, high-performance targeting 10 GbE network links, including 10M/100M/1G data rates. The DB-UDP-IP is a Verilog SoC IP Core targeting Intel/Altera and Xilinx FPGAs and ASIC/ASSP devices.

The image belo depicts the UDP/IP Hardware Stack SoC IP Core embedded within an Altera / Xilinx FPGA device, connected on one side to a 10 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).
