�Anritsu Corporation Selects PLDA�s PCIe Solution for its Next Generation of Handheld Spectrum Analyzers

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#Analyzer--PLDA, the industry leader in high-speed interconnect, today announced that Anritsu Corporation has selected PLDA�s PCIe Controller IP for its next generation of handheld spectrum analyzers. Anritsu, a global provider of innovative communications test and measurement solutions, joins a growing number of companies worldwide implementing PLDA solutions.

PCIe Technology has long been used by the test and measurement Industry, as high-quality and configurable PCIe IPs are perfectly optimized for high-end analyzers. The maturity of PLDA�s PCIe controller solution on ASIC and FPGA technologies and the company�s reputation for outstanding customer support were among the key deciding factors for Anritsu.

�Anritsu develops leading-edge handheld test solutions that require high-bandwidth connections to meet the needs of today�s high-speed wireless networks. The PLDA XpressRICH-AXI IP�s support of AXI streams connected to DMA engines was a crucial factor for us because it allows our field spectrum analyzers to efficiently stream I/Q to a computer via a PCIe interface.� said Russel Lindsay, Sr. Product Manager.

Key features in PLDA�s XpressRICH-AXI IP are:

  • Built-in DMA engine with Scatter-Gather and descriptor prefetch
  • Support of multiple, user-selectable AXI interfaces
  • A large range of configurations on leading-edge FPGA devices

According to Stephane Hauradou, CTO of PLDA �PLDA works hard to provide leading-edge PCIe solutions for the test and measurement industry. Today, we are proud to supply Anritsu, and we look forward to working closely with them now and in the future.�
