SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Xilinx,
Inc. (NASDAQ: XLNX) today announced its Low-Density Parity-Check
(LDPC) error correction IP fundamental to enabling next generation
Flash-based applications for the cloud and data center storage
market. As NAND Flash continues to advance with 3D NAND
technologies, LDPC error correction is a critical core function for
meeting the stringent reliability and endurance requirements of
today's storage solutions. Xilinx's LDPC IP solution features
best-in-class code performance near Shannon limit, achieves very
low error floor, and supports both hard and soft decision decoding.
The architecture is scalable and future proof to support various
next-generation non-volatile memory devices and offers the high
throughput and low latency required for the most demanding storage
applications. This solution requires 50% less logic versus
alternate solutions and is Xilinx® FPGA optimized for smaller area
and power.
