The Expert of IP Core & Embedded

AHCI PCI express SSD IP core (APS-IP) operating with Avalon-MM Hard IP for PCIe from Altera is ideal to access AHCI PCIe SSD without CPU and external memory such as DDR3 requirement. It is recommended to use in the application which require high capacity storage at very high-speed performance. Small size system can be also designed by M.2 storage which uses PCIe protocol standard. The IP core license includes the reference design for Altera FPGA boards. It helps you to reduce development time and cost.

Features

• Implement application layer to access AHCI PCIe SSD card by using NCQ command
• Simple user control I/F and FIFO interface for data port
• Direct connect to Avalon-MM Hard IP for PCI Express from Altera by using 128-bit bus interface
• Small logic utilization and no need for CPU and external memory (DDR)
• Support three ATA commands, i.e. IDENTIFY DEVICE, WRITE FPDMA QUEUED, and READ FPDMA QUEUED
• Reference design with AB16-PCIeXOVR adapter board available on Altera FPGA boards
