IP co-processor in 128Kx72 configuration
28 August 2002
DSP, Micros & Memory
IDT offers its 128Kx72 full-ternary Internet Protocol (IP) co-processor, with a suite of advanced management features. Based on the integration of content addressable memory (CAM) and high-performance logic, IDT's IP co-processors support network processor units (NPUs) and ASICs to accelerate deep packet classification and forwarding in core, metro and access routers. The 128Kx72 IP co-processor performs up to 100 million searches per second and uses an innovative reissue feature that eliminates extraneous clock cycles during multiple database searches to allow up to 576-bit wide sustained searches at maximum device speed. They offer system-oriented power and advanced management techniques that reduce CPU cycles and assist in uniform multipath routing.
