Design Gateway’s exFAT-IP is a fully hardware-based file system IP core designed to work seamlessly with NVMe-IP, enabling high-speed exFAT file format operations on Altera FPGAs—without the need for a CPU or operating system. This solution is ideal for real-time applications where data must be recorded and accessed simultaneously, such as in aerospace, defense, and medical systems. By handling all file system tasks in hardware, it significantly simplifies system design while delivering ultra-fast file-level access.
In combination with NVMe-IP, the exFAT-IP achieves write speeds exceeding 3 GB/s. This allows multiple applications to access NVMe SSDs concurrently using a standard exFAT format, bridging the gap between high-speed raw storage and user-friendly file systems. The result is a powerful solution that eliminates storage bottlenecks and supports efficient data analysis in real-time environments.
