When Management Graphics needed PCI performance, they chose Xilinx Proof! When Management Graphics needed PCI performance, they chose Xilinx “With Xilinx PCI LogiCORE product, we were able to achieve a sustained bandwidth of 124 Mbyte per second in our EDOX Document Server. The high performance of the LogiCORE solution combined with the short time to market and flexibility of a programmable FPGA solution, made Xilinx the obvious choice.”Tony Clark, Principal Design Engineer, Management Graphics, Inc. 7

Intel, the Driver of PCI, chose Xilinx Validation! Intel, the Driver of PCI, chose Xilinx “Fast development time and compliance to the 2.1 PCI specification are important”. An Intel proof-of-concept design incorporating the Xilinx LogiCORE PCI interface development kit is available as an application note at www.intel.com/design/intarch. - Mike Carboni, Technical Marketing Manager Embedded Microcomputer Division, Intel Corp. 16
