SOFTSILICON Concept
A fast, flexible concept for system development based on standard chip solutions.
SOFTSILICON provides a standard chip solution, which can be re-programmed to accommodate new standards and market requirements. It combines the pre-defined feature set and low risk advantages of ASSPs with the flexibility advantages of FPGAs in a cost and power efficient manner. All SOFTSILICON products are thoroughly tested on TPACK reference system hardware. See SOFTSILICON Explained for more information.
The SOFTSILICON concept allows TPACK to be first on the market with the right functionality for Telecom Equipment Manufacturers building Packet Optical Transport systems.
The SOFTSILICON concept comes in two variants to suit your specific needs in the best way:
SOFTSILICON Standard
- Standard feature set with extensive configuration options
- Chip reference handbook
- Driver API in C source code
SOFTSILICON Flex
