Serial FPDP IP Core
Serial Front Panel Data Port (sFPDP) is an industry standard, low-overhead, low-latency, high speed serial communications protocol. sFPDP is ideal for use in applications such as Radar, Range & Telemetry Systems, High Speed Data Acquisition, High Resolution Video Storage Applications, Digital Receivers, Spectrum and Transient Analysis. sFPDP overcomes the major limitation of the Parallel FPDP which is limited link connection distance - not more than 5 meters, & is capable of covering up to 10 Kilometres using appropriate optical transceiver and fibre optic cable. The simple and lightweight nature of the protocol also makes it an attractive choice for replacement of parallel bus interconnects using transceiver technology. iWave has been closely working with the customers worldwide to satisfy their design and development needs. iWave's sFPDP IP core found perfect stage to showcase its utilization and has been a part of major applications. iWave's development of the sFPDP IP core has been meeting the market demands ever since.
