Configurable Serial RapidIO (SRIO) controller IP (host/device) compliant with RapidIO spec rev. 4.0 and Error Management Extension rev. 4.0, architected for high link utilization and low latency, with receiver-controlled flow control and packet-oriented user interface. SRIO implements Logical, Transport, and Physical layers, supports serial and parallel interfaces with 1×/2×/4× lanes, internal datapaths 64/128/256-bit, up to 256-byte payloads, PBUS register access, and hardware error recovery with exhaustive reporting. Modes include PIO, DMA, Message, Data-streaming, mixed operation, pass-through for packets to 288 bytes, and “accept-all” failover. Addressing supports 34/50/66-bit with 8/16/32-bit Device IDs. Delivered as configurable RTL with HDL testbench/behavioral models, testcases, protocol checkers, bus watchers, performance monitors, plus configurable synthesis shell and guides. Technology-independent (40 nm ASIC or better, FPGA).
