  1. Xilinx PCI Goal:DOMINATE THE PCI MARKET! Sales Partners Web:http://www.partner.xilinx.com/common/logicore/pci Technical Questions:hotline@xilinx.com File Number Here

  2. Validation! The Inventor of PCI, chooses Xilinx (Chandler, Arizona) ”Fast development time and compliance to the 2.1 PCI specification are important”. An Intel proof-of-concept design incorporating the Xilinx LogiCORE PCI interface development kit is available as an application note at www.intel.com/design/intarch Mike Carboni, Technical Marketing Manager, Embedded Microcomputer Division, Intel Corp.

  3. Agenda • PCI - the Opportunity • Xilinx PCI - a Complete Solution • Designing with Xilinx PCI • Competition • Support • Call to Action • Design Wins

  4. PCI - the Opportunity

  5. PCI - 50% Annually Growth • Three key segments • PCI-slot (add-in boards) • CompactPCI • Embedded PCI(not shown in graph) • CompactPCI biggest • Key customers for CompactPCI within • Telecom • Networking • Industrial

  6. CompactPCI - the Industrial Version of PCI • Alternative to VME • Currently $1.3B market • PCI with new form factor • Eurocard form factor • Gas tight, high density connector • Staged power pins for Hot Swap capability • Short life cycles of standard PCI chips is a big concern • FPGA + LogiCORE PCI solves the problem!

  7. Available PCI Solutions • Standard PCI Chips • ASICs with PCI core • FPGAs with PCI core

  8. Standard PCI Chips • Specialized on PCI • Price $15-$35 • Offers complete solution • Reference designs • Boards • Drivers • Application notes

  9. Standard PCI Chips - Limitations • Extra PLD(s) often required for glue logic • A standard PCI chip is a bridge to a specific bus • Cannot be customized or upgraded • Come with an errata list • Limited performance in some applications

  10. External FPGA15K Gates User Design15K Gates PCI Master  >$35 Sell Cost and Integration Benefits Against Standard PCI Chips $40 $30 Component cost 20K units XCS30-4 PQ208 Standard ChipPCI Master $20 $10 • <$20 • Flexible • Single-chip Standard Chip • $24 • Inflexible • Multi-chip

  11. 12-Channel 16-Bit Analog I/O PMC Board Example 1 PMC-ADADIO • PMC • PCI chip: PLX 9060 • Back-end: Altera FLEX10K40 (Huntsville, AL)

  12. Type E Serial Interface Adapter Example 2 GET 10072801 • Fully compliant PCI • PCI chip: AMCC • Back-end: Altera FLEX (El Cajon, CA)

  13. 1 Gigabyte 3U CompactPCI Memory Module Example 3 MM-5100 • CompactPCI board • PCI chip: PLX 9080 Master • Back-end: Altera FLEX10K20 (Chatsworth, CA)

  14. ASICs with PCI Core • Usual ASIC issues • High NRE • No flexibility (essential for fully compliant PCI) • Long development time • Key PCI core providers for ASIC • Phoenix (Virtual Chip + Sand) • Logic Innovation • Mentor

  15. Sell Flexibility and Time-to-Market against ASICs • Easy to validate PCI compliance and debug hardware, e.g., at PCI-SIG’s Plug-Fest (Compliance Workshop) • Boards can be updated if future compliance issues arises • No NRE

  16. FPGAs With PCI Core • Best flexibility, integration and cost • Solution must fulfill customer requirements • Predictable - easy to use • Flexible - highest performance • Support infrastructure • Key players • Xilinx - market leader, in the PCI business for 3+ years • Lucent - provides synthesizable core and embedded core • Altera - promotes PLD Applications (Fra) and Eureka (US)

  17. Sell Predictability and Flexibility Against Other FPGAs • Only PCI core for FPGAs with guaranteed timing • Including 2ns clock-to-out min timing, and 0 ns hold • FPGA characterized together with core • Pre-defined critical placement and routing • First parameterizable PCI core • Configurable on the web • First core with modular architecture • Core de-coupled from back-end design • Back-end customizable without affecting PCI timing

  18. PCI Backend Interface PredictableZero Wait-state PCI Core PCI Backend Interface UserDesign Fixed FIFO PC Interface Fixed DMA Modular ArchitectureBest Flexibility and Predictability Xilinx PCI Solution Customizable FIFO(s) User Design Customizable DMA(s) Competing “Shrink-wrapped” PCI Cores & standard PCI chips

  19. Selling Against Other FPGAs • Only Xilinx has necessary PCI infrastructure • PCI specific product team (14 engineers) • Extensive experience (3+ years, 400+ users) • Most complete solution • Core with bridge design examples • Test benches • Prototyping board • Driver development tools and reference drivers • Unique web-based customization • Extensive docs (User’s Guide and Design Guide)

  20. Xilinx PCI - a Complete Solution

  21. LogiCORE PCI32 interfaces cores • Synthesizable Bridge Design Examples • Testbenches and Simulation Models • Reference drivers (Win95/98/NT) • Full featured driver development tools • Hot PCI - Rapid Prototyping Board • Application SW Xilinx PCI32 Design Kit The Complete PCI Solution

  22. Product Roadmap • See the latest Xilinx Weekly

  23. PCI Lounge on WebLINX • Password protected area on WebLINX • PCI core configuration and download • Customers must register to get design data • No CD shipped (can be requested) • Customer selects username and password • Product Serial number used as proof of purchase • See tutorial in reference section
