Sarance Technologies, a provider of interconnect IP technology, and Spirent Communications, have announced a licensing agreement to incorporate Sarance's high speed ethernet IP core 40G and 100G IP products in Spirent TestCenter.
The high speed ethernet IP (HSEC) is available as soft core for Virtex-5 TXT and Virtex-6 LXT FPGAs and Altera Stratix IV GT and Altera Stratix IV GX FPGAs, as well as for ASIC implementations. It has also been implemented and validated in 65nm and 40nm process technologies. The IP is delivered as a netlist targeted for the specific FPGA architecture, or as RTL code that can be implemented in any ASIC process technology.
Farhad Shafai, vice president of R&D at Sarance Technologies, said: "Sarance's 100G and 40G ethernet cores have already been licensed by networking companies and have gone through rigorous testing by passing live internet traffic.
"The adoption of the same cores by a major test equipment vendor like Spirent further validates the robustness of Sarance IP and provides the quickest path for network equipment vendors to get their products to the market. We're excited to be working with Spirent and to accelerate the deployment of 100G and 40G equipment."
