PLDA and M31 Announce a Compliant PCI Express® 3.0 Solution Including PLDA’s XpressRICH3 Controller and M31’s PHY IP for the TSMC 28HPC+ Process Node at 8 GT/s

The PCIe Controller and PHY combination delivers another compliant product to the PLDA ecosystem, providing a robust third party alternative to traditional, multi-product IP providers

SAN JOSE, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — June 7, 2016 — PLDA, the industry leader in PCI Express® and interface IP solutions and M31, a global silicon intellectual property (IP) boutique, today announced that their combined PCI Express® (PCIe®) 3.0 solution passed all PCIe 3.0 compliance tests performed by PCI-SIG® at the compliance workshop in April 2016. The solution includes PLDA’s XpressRICH3™ Controller IP combined with the M31 PHY and provides a compliant solution for the TSMC 28HPC+ Process Node. The combined solution delivers significant chip area and power saving benefits which are essential for TSMC 28HPC+ ASIC designers looking to optimize their mid- to low-end SoC designs.

PLDA and M31 are helping to ensure a more robust choice for out-of-the box PCIe 3.0 solutions for designers by focusing on PCIe compliance testing, as well as providing a silicon-proven and rigorously tested alternative to the traditional, multi-product IP providers. The addition of this product to the PCI-SIG Integrators List is the latest of several compliant solutions for the PLDA Ecosystem of independent providers.

According to PLDA’s CTO Stephane Hauradou, “PLDA’s extensive Ecosystem of innovative providers such as M31 combined with our history of groundbreaking PCIe architecture development and a track record of over 2,500 PCI Express designs in silicon delivers the quality and ease-of-integration our global customer base has come to expect from our IP products.”

"M31 is committed to provide a full set of solutions through partnerships with leading, complimentary IP providers such as PLDA and by actively pursuing certifications and compatibility tests,” said H.P. Lin, Chairman of M31. “Our goal is to completely meet the needs of our customers with distinguished and differentiated products combined with the support they need to achieve first pass silicon success.”

PCI-SIG is the consortium that owns and manages PCIe specifications as open industry standards. Its compliance workshops offer members the opportunity to test and validate their products before they enter the field. Testing is completed against PCI-SIG maintained systems, as well as other leading manufacturers of PCIe products. The rigorous testing process includes interoperability testing on a range of PC hardware products, transaction layer and data link testing, physical layer testing and configuration testing.

“We’re pleased that PLDA and M31 have partnered to provide a PCIe 3.0 compliant solution,” said Al Yanes, PCI-SIG president and chairman. “Their combined efforts to participate in the PCIe specification compliance testing help ensure the continued expansion and success of the PCIe architecture.”
