Ethernet Real-Time Publish-Subscribe (RTPS) IP Core

Ethernet Real-Time Publish-Subscribe (RTPS) IP Core Overview

The New Wave Design Ethernet Real-Time Publish-Subscribe (RTPS) core provides a complete hardware IP solution for the Ethernet RTPS protocol.

The core provides OMG DDSI-RTPS compliance, hardware-based message label filtering, hardware mapping of message label to host memory, and complete offload of RTPS handling including: Transmit messages, Receive messages, IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP), DMA controller, frame building/checking, and CRC generation/ checking.

The host interface to the core is AXI4. This allows the core to be connected to an external host processor over PCIe or to an embedded SoC processor. The core is built for dropping into an FPGA and providing the complete design from processor interface to Ethernet RTPS network interface.

This core is targeted toward applications in military/aerospace and has been implemented on AMD (Xilinx^®) UltraScale^™/UltraScale+^™ devices. The core comes with test benches, constraints and an example design, making design integration a straightforward task.

New Wave Design has a set of standard form factor boards featuring FPGAs, 10G Ethernet optics, and off-the-shelf reference designs for quick evaluation of the IP core.
