Xilinx Presentation
Designing 10Gbps Applications on Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA Platforms
Navneet Rao, Connectivity System Architect, Xilinx
This presentation will address scenarios and tradeoffs for designing
10 Gbps applications with FPGAs using PCI Express(R), Serial RapidIO,
XAUI, Ethernet, and other proprietary protocols. Also discussed will
be key optimization and implementation strategies when designing the
latest Xilinx Virtex-5 LXT/SXT/FXT FPGA platforms.

Xilinx Demonstrations
-- PCI Express 2.0 Solution -- Demonstration of high performance PCI
Express 2.0 solutions targeting the latest 65nm Xilinx Virtex-5 FXT
FPGAs with built-in GTX transceivers running at 5.0 Gbps.
-- High Performance XAUI Solution -- Demonstration of a 10 Gbps
application implementing PCI Express and XAUI protocols in a Xilinx
Virtex-5 LXT FPGA. The application implements 8-lane PCIe(R) -- to --
XAUI system using the built-in GTP transceivers.
