SPI4.2 (GSPI4.2-MC)
SPI-4 Phase 2 is an interface defined for packet or cell transfer between physical layer device and link layer device, for aggregate bandwidth of OC-192 ATM, Packet over SONET/SDH, and 10 Gbps Ethernet applications.
GDA's SPI4P2 Interface controller is a highly configurable and efficient implementation, fully compliant to Optical Internet working forum's OIF-SPI4-02.0, System packet level interface Level 4 Phase 2 implementation agreement. SPI4P2 is a fully digital, multi-module design created to provide complete solution in variety of application scenarios: from dynamic alignment through protocol and FIFO management.
The core's simple, configurable and layered architecture is independent of applications, PHY designs, implementation tools and, most importantly, target technologies. GDA's SPI4P2 Interface Controller is a cost-effective, end-to-end system validated solution that allows the licensees to easily migrate to FPGA, Gate array and Standard cell technologies optimally.
