Digital Core Design (DCD) Announces New SPI Serial Peripheral Interface IP Cores

September 20th, 2005 – The Intellectual Property (IP) provider - Digital Core Design (DCD) today has announced the release of the DSPI_FIFO and DSPIS IP Cores.

The DSPI_FIFO and DSPIS IP Cores complete DCD's Serial Peripheral Interface IP Cores family, and break the limitation of currently offered DSPI - Serial Peripheral Interface IP Core.
Designing the DPI_FIFO IP Core DCD reached out those SPI interface users, who need faster data transfer, without need to interrupt the CPU program after each transferred byte. Now our DSPI_FIFO is capable to transfer up to 512 bytes of data.

The DSPIS IP Core allows communication with passive devices, it reduces number of pins used for CPU communication with external devices like memories LCD drivers etc. DSPIS is designed to operate with DSPI and DSPI_FIFO. All Digital Core Design's SPI IP Cores supports all four SPI transfer formats, and are flexible enough to interface directly with numerous standard product peripherals from several manufacturers. The data rates can be as high as CLK/4 and when needed as low as CLK/512.

The Customer can select VHDL/Verilog source code or FPGA Netlists. IP Core is licensed under Single Design or Unlimited Designs options. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact DCD. http://www.dcd.pl/acontact.php
