PCI Development System Validates Both Hardware & Software

Implementing and testing the PCI interface, back-end design, drivers and controlling software, all in real time, just got a little easier with the H.O.T. II PCI Development System, a complete plug-in development environment said to provide the flexibility and time-to-market benefits necessary to successfully design a PCI-based system. The HOT/PCI Interface Netlist includes the Xilinx LogiCORE PCI32 Target Interface for implementation on the board's Xilinx Spartan FPGA or XC4062 FPGA.The Standard Version of H.O.T. II includes a PCI board with one XCS40-4 PQ240 SPARTAN device, 1 Mbyte of SRAM, 128k of configuration flash memory, 128k of configuration RAM, and CD with development tools. Included on the CD are the firm's Hardware Object Technology Run-Time-Recognition development software, test programs, API and programming examples. A prototyping daughter card for wire-wrap projects is available separately.
