June 18, 2008, Beijing-the global leader in programmable logic solutions by Xilinx, Inc. (Xilinx, Inc. (NASDAQ: XLNX)) today announced the launch of an integrated by Xilinx automobile (XA) field-programmable gate array (FPGA) and intellectual property (IP) solutions. This integrated solution includes ontology for car audio (headunit) application of low-power Intel in-vehicle Infotainment (IVI) reference design. The reference design combines the XA solutions with Intel Atom processor,?? as a system developer in the development of the open car Infotainment platforms provide new levels of performance, scalability and flexibility.
And consumers in the home and Office needs, in-car digital information access and entertainment applications demand growth, by Xilinx Corporation and Intel Corporation as well as the respective ecosystem provider this cooperation meets this demand. As Intel embedded and Communications Alliance member companies by Xilinx in close cooperation with Intel, for their joint customers accelerate system development of complete, flexible solution for automotive electronics. This latest development results fully combines XASpartan?-3FPGA series platform's inherent flexibility advantages and built-in connectivity features, as well as Intel ® Atom Processor Z530 and Intel?? the system control collection with US15W, high performance, low power consumption and powerful ecosystem support and other features.
Powerful development platform
Low power IntelIVI reference design solution based on XASpartan-3EFPGA to extend the Platform flexibility and integrated a number of automotive-specific features such as video capture support and MOST? network connectivity. The solution integrates various functions including SD2.0 (including SDHC), used for camera input video frames collector, Bluetooth connectivity, for BIOS configuration of low pin count (LowPinCount) interface, integrated support for external network controller LogiCORE? NICIPforMOST or media local bus connections to MOST of the functions as well as the Flash interface support functions. These features for Auto center console of embedded system, the automobile center console usually include navigation, entertainment, and portable device Bluetooth wireless connectivity.
XASpartan-3EFPGA is by Xilinx and by Xilinx Alliance program (XilinxAllianceProgram) a number of industry-leading automotive market partners to develop end-to-end auto part of the solution. XA solutions integrate include pre-verified by Xilinx and third-party application-optimized IP building blocks, hardware and software components. These are implemented based on MOST, FlexRay and CAN, and other industry-standard automotive network of fully functional automotive subsystems needed. In addition, XA programmable device also provides developers with the best architecture flexibility to better determine system Division and adaptation of technical standards in a variety of end users. This is not the same as the existing private standard devices (ASSP) preset structure and functions of the product development is in stark contrast to limit.
By Xilinx company car system architecture and solution Senior Manager NickDiFiore said: "we are very pleased to be in this fast-growing areas in cooperation with Intel Corporation and to share our experience in the automotive industry. Cooperation between our two companies can provide information and entertainment systems development brings high performance, low-power programmable infrastructure enormous advantages. By XASpartan-3E device flexible connection functionality into Intel ® Atom Processor ecosystem?, now developers can better in next generation applications achieve product differentiation. "
"Intel by and large numbers of hardware and software ecosystem vendors for the automotive industry to provide rich development and design choices. "Intel Corporation digital enterprise, Vice President and low-power embedded products division General Manager TonSteenman said," Intel low power IVI reference design shows us how to pass and ecosystem partners work closely together to support our customers in the automotive industry to more quickly integrate their solutions to market. In our reference design integration by Xilinx XAFPGA so that we can provide a powerful development platform, its flexibility and scalability to meet the infotainment system growing complexity requirements. "
Product supply
For low-power IntelIVI reference design is based on the matching chip solution XASpartan-3EFPGA will be in July 2008.
