Software development kit supports latest linux OS, all PLX PCI devices

6 November 2002 Design Automation

PLX Technology has announced the newest PLX SDK Pro v3.5 software development kit (SDK), which boosts performance - up to 42 times that of the previous SDK - in Linux and MS Windows XP drivers for all PLX I/O Accelerator devices. SDK v3.5 includes major enhancements to PLX's PCI drivers; many of the SDK's advanced programming interface elements have been optimised to take advantage of the drivers' performance in Linux and Windows.

The PCI SDK Pro v3.5 includes:

* Windows 98/2000/NT/Me/XP host drivers with source code for all PLX I/O accelerators.

* VxWorks RTOS support for the PCI 9056, PCI 9656 and PCI 9054 I/O accelerators.

* Wind River pSOS RTOS support for the PCI 9054 I/O accelerator.

* Linux Pentium host drivers with source code for the PCI 9030, PCI 9050, PCI 9052, PCI 9054, PCI 9056, PCI 9080 and PCI 9656 I/O accelerators.

* More than 140 fully documented host and embedded APIs with source code and usage example.

* Windows-based PLXMon tool.
