Overview

The XLGMII 40G Ethernet Verification IP is compliant with IEEE 802.3ba specifications and verifies MAC-to-PHY layer interfaces of designs with a 40G Ethernet interface XLGMII. It can work with SystemVerilog,Vera, SystemC, E and Verilog HDL environment. Ethernet Verification IP is developed by experts in Ethernet, who have developed ethernet products in companies like Intel, Cortina-Systems, Emulex, Cisco. We know what it takes to verify a ethernet product.

XLGMII 40G Ethernet Verification IP is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA, Specman E and non-standard verification env

XLGMII 40G Ethernet Verification IP comes with optional Smart Visual Protocol Debugger (Smart ViPDebug), which is GUI based debugger to speed up debugging.

Three Ethernet Design Challenges in Industrial Automation

As factories, process plants, and robotics platforms become increasingly intelligent and interconnected, the demand for stable, low-latency data links has pushed Ethernet deeper into embedded systems. However, since designing Ethernet connectivity into industrial chips comes with its technical and logistical hurdles, engineers may face challenges when implementing Ethernet in industrial designs.

Powering Scale Up and Scale Out with 224G SerDes for UALink and Ultra Ethernet

At the recent ECOC 2025 conference in Copenhagen, Cadence showcased its key role in enabling the future of AI infrastructure with live silicon demonstrations of several essential IP technologies for emerging 800G and 1.6T networks. Powered by Cadence's 224G SerDes IP, Cadence's Ultra Accelerator Link (UALink 1.0) scale-up and Ultra Ethernet scale-out networking solutions deliver the performance, flexibility, and interoperability needed for next-generation AI factories and hyperscale data centers.

Ultra Ethernet Security: Protecting AI/HPC at Scale

As artificial intelligence and high-performance computing (AI/HPC) reshape industries, the need for robust, scalable, and secure connectivity has never been greater. Built from tightly integrated CPUs, GPUs, and SmartNICs, today’s compute clusters demand high-throughput, low-latency networks that can scale from die-to-die to multi-rack deployments.
