Overview

Inicore's iniHDLC family of High-Level Data Link Controller (HDLC) cores consist of a Receiver (FPR: From Primary Rate) and a Transmitter (TPR: To Primary Rate) unit. These single channel HDLC controllers handle all interframe flags, delimiting flags and Frame Check Sequence (FCS) pattern. The FCS is calculated using a CRC-16 polynomial.

The HDLC protocol has several subsets (e.g., Q.921, Q922, X.25 etc.). The structure of a frame (header, trailer, FCS, stuffing/destuffing) is the same but the procedures for Commands, Responses and Abort Conditions are different and are handled by software. iniHDLC cores can be used within the whole HDLC subset.

The iniHDLC cores are a synthesiszable, flexible, and structured VHDL implementation of the HDLC protocol. The cores are designed for easy interfacing to custom buffers (e.g., FIFO, DMA-Interface).

Key features

Keep Legacy Systems Running with a DO-254 HDLC & SDLC Part Replacement IP Core

One not-so-glamorous but vitally important use for CAST digital IP cores is to replace obsolete parts. Many of our cores can provide the answer if you’re maintaining a legacy system and need to make your own FPGA for a discrete part that was discontinued years ago, or perhaps consolidating a working but ancient board design into a single new chip.

D32PRO, scalable & royalty free 32-bit CPU

D32PRO is one of the newest 32-bit CPUs available on the market. It’s been designed by Digital Core Design, IP Core provider and SoC design house from Poland, responsible e.g. for the world’s fastest or world’s smallest 8051 CPU. DCD launched more than 70 different architectures since 1999, which have been implemented in more than 300 000 000 electronic devices, that’s why one can be sure that quite considerable experience stands behind the D32PRO.
