      NPAP RTL Simulation Demonstrates Low-Latency TCP/IP

      MLE has complemented NPAP, the TCP/UDP/IP Full Accelerator from Fraunhofer HHI, with an RTL Simulation environment for Xilinx Vivado ISim and for the Questa Advanced Simulator from Siemens EDA. This simulation environment is available free-of-charge to all licensees of NPAP with an active maintenance subscription. For more information please read the MLE Technical Brief TB20220305 titled “Latency Measurement of 10G/25G/50G/100G TCP-Cores Using RTL Simulation”.


      Real-time Parallel Voice, Data and Video Streams in Defense System Solutions

      Elbit Systems Deutschland is a vendor for mobile high performance communications and tactical data links. This allows parallel voice, data and video streams in real time. Furthermore, Elbit Systems Deutschland provides expertise for communication and reconnaissance technologies with ongoing engagement in security related systems which makes Elbit Systems Deutschland a reliable and competent partner in defense system solutions within the fields of radio communication, electro optics, protection systems, uncrewed systems up to complete cyber solutions.

      Since 2018 Elbit Systems Deutschland has been relying on Missing Link Electronics (MLE) for FPGA design services. MLE brings expertise in implementing various protocols like TCP/IP, I2C, SPI, I2S, and in line processing and system integration of timecode protocols like IRIG, HaveQuick and pulse-per-second, and deep knowledge in FPGA technology like AMD Spartan 7, AMD Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC and ARM based Microcontrollers.

      MLE has implemented application specific FPGA functionality and corresponding custom device drivers and included them into an up-to-date Yocto build flow. MLE has verified the design by tests and demonstrations on the target hardware platform.

      All tasks were delivered within time, budget and in close communication with the Elbit Systems Deutschland team which allowed alignment and efficient progress of both engineering teams.

      MLE & Intel PSG Optimize NPAP for Intel HyperFlex Architecture

      As the outcome of joint engineering collaboration between Intel PSG and MLE Germany, an new version of NPAP, the TCP/UDP/IP Full Accelerator from Fraunhofer HHI was released by MLE. This release incorporates many code optimizations for utilizing the Intel HyperFlex technology. Intel HyperFlex FPGA Architecture addresses increased bandwidth demands via improved FPGA logic clocking. For a typical NPAP setup clock speed was improved by more than 1.5x to currently over 500 MHz. Because of NPAP's unique 128-bit wide datapath architecture, this enables more than 60 Gbps line rates. NPAP-100G for Intel Hyperflex is made available by MLE as a licensable subsystem stack or as a Function Accelerator Card based on Stratix 10GX devices.


       

      MLE Presents CORUNDUM In-Network Compute at FOSDEM’22

      At FOSDEM’22, an annual event to promote the widespread use of free and open source software, MLE co-presents an update of the CORUNDUM.io project. CORUNDUM is an open-source project hosted at Github for building high-performance FPGA-based Network-Interface Cards (NIC) or in-network compute platforms / SmartNICs. MLE’s work includes enhanced support for Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC, for example interfacing with Linux running on the ARM-based Processing System (PS). Read more on the work presented…


       

      Multi-RAID SSD NVMe Streamer System

      Collaboration to develop a high performance, Multi-RAID SSD Streaming System to incorporate into high performance data recording systems for the US Defense Dept.

      DEC is a Government Contractor working with the US Defense Dept. When we needed to develop a fast, SSD multi-RAID NVMe streamer for one of our projects, we became aware of Missing Link Electronics by way of Xilinx’s Premier Partners Program.

      This project required advanced knowledge of both specialized hardware and communication protocols to meet our customers exacting requirements. MLE came in, evaluated our needs, and developed the technical design using their own NVMe IP and in-depth hardware and software expertise to provide, on time and on budget, a board level solution to integrate into our system design. MLE provided unique benefit by having great access to our supplier’s technology, advanced IP, and specialized, hands-on expertise. I recommend MLE to others needing advanced expertise in programmable hardware and software design. Working with them is a pleasure and produces excellent results.

      Dan Whitehead, Electrical Engineer at DEC

      DEC specializes in advanced sensor and processing technologies for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Unmanned Systems, and Self-Protection applications for the defense industry.

      High-speed, Multi-RAID SSD Streaming

      DEC and MLE Collaborate on Multi-RAID SSD NVMe Streamer System

      Today DEC (Defense Engineering Corporation, Beavercreek, OH USA) and MLE (Missing Link Electronics, Inc., San Jose, CA USA) announced they have collaborated to develop a high performance, Multi-RAID SSD Streaming System to incorporate into high performance data recording systems for the US Defense Dept. The system will be provided by DEC.

      Dan Whitehead adds: “DEC is a Government Contractor working with the US Defense Dept. When we needed to develop a fast, SSD multi-RAID NVMe streamer for one of our projects, we became aware of Missing Link Electronics by way of Xilinx’s Premier Partners Program.

      Andreas Schuler, MLE Product Engineering, commented: “When we were approached by DEC we were happy to see that our long-time affiliation with the Xilinx Premier Partners Program provided a challenging opportunity to work with a top-notch engineering team at DEC. We were successfully able to combine our NVMe Streamer technology with DEC’s expertise in providing system-level technology to the US Defense Department. This produced an excellent result in which both companies take pride.”

      DEC specializes in advanced sensor and processing technologies for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Unmanned Systems, and Self-Protection applications for the defense industry.

      MLE is an intellectual property (IP) and software and hardware design services company based in San Jose, CA. It is a proud member of the Xilinx Premier Partners Program.
