SoC-e offers a  POSIX Portable RSTP Software Stack in source code format. This stack has been developed in-house and it is fully documented in order to facilitate the integration of this stack on customer OS. SoC-e switch IPs include hardware support for RSTP operations, link ports blocking or BDPUs management. Additionally to this new RSTP Software Stack, this hardware is directly supported by MSTP Open Source software stack available in Linux distributions using  SoC-e drivers. If you want to receive…

SoC-e presents a new FPGA based OEM module for Reliable Networks implementation. It supports up-to 6 copper or fibre Fast Ethernet ports. It can allocate different size Xilinx Spartan-6 FPGAs, from LX45 to LX150, depending on the complexity of the design requested on the FPGA. SoC-e offers out-of-the-box HSR/PRP IEEE 1588-aware designs for SMARToem module. These designs support Configuration-over-Ethernet (CoE) that allows full access to internal registers through the same Ethernet link that connects to the CPU and Dynamic Bitstream…

The Optical Current Transformer (SDO OCT) is an alternative to the existing conventional current transformers, providing an advanced measurement solution for both metering and protection applications, based on a cutting-edge optical sensing technology.  OCT is provided with Arteches´s smART DO technology. The Optical Current Transformer provides a digital output compatible with the IEC 61850-9-2 LE protocol, allowing for the implementation of Process Bus technology within the substation. SoC-e 1588Tiny IP Core for Xilinx FPGAs has been integrated in this product to provide accurate…

Check out this video of HANlab live demo running at Embedded World 2014 It combines HSR, PRP and IEEE 1588 protocols in a single setup using the following SoC-e IP cores: HSR/PRP Switch IP Core Unmanaged Ethernet Switch IP Core 1588Tiny IP Core…

SoC-e presents at embedded world 2014 its new solutions for HSR, PRP and 1588. In a live demo at Xilinx booth, you can interact with a Smart Quadbox with a 1588 synchronized HSR ring and with a Zynq SoC based DAN. Smart Quadbox combines low-latency Tri-speed HSR/PRP ports with 1GE fibre Ethernet ports. It supports “legacy” dummy Quadbox mode of operation and managed switch operation. The HSR ring is composed by SoC-e NETbox Development Kits implementing the most cost-effective solution…

SoC-e completes its synchronization IP Cores portfolio with a TX/RX IRIG-B IP that can be implemented in any Xilinx FPGA and easily combined with SoC-e IEEE 1588 IPs. For more information: Contact SoC-e  …

The new release of the Tri-Speed SoC-e HSR/PRP Switch IP supports full access to internal registers through the same Ethernet link that connects to the CPU. This Management Mode simplifies drastically the hardware infrastructure and saves resources. This link also can be used by any IEEE 1588 software stack to read the hardware timestamping units of the HSR/PRP Switch IP or to control the status of the RSTP ports. This Management mode completes the list of configuration modes available: Serial,…

The work “System-on-Chip Implementation of Reliable Ethernet Networks Nodes” presented by SoC-e and by the University of the Basque Country at the prestigious Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (November 2013, Vienna) was awarded as the best contribution of the Session “System-on-Chips, Design, Simulation and Verification”. The flexibility (DAN, RedBox, QuadBox) and performance (very low and constant switching latency times) of the SoC implementation were excellently assessed by the reviewers. The full text of the contribution can be obtained…
