PLDA Announces SATA Express™ Support in Their Industry-leading XpressRICH3-AXI PCIe® IPPLDA, the industry leader in PCI (News - Alert) Express® controller IP solutions, today announced that its XpressRICH3-AXI PCIe® 3.0 IP is now fully compliant with the SATA Express™ standard. This breakthrough IP product leverages the popular and flexible PCIe interface while expanding it to deliver the benefits of SATA Express for design projects in the SSD space. In order to achieve compliance with the SATA Express specification, PLDA added new features to its leading XpressRICH3-AXI soft IP that enabled compatibility with NVMe and AHCI. Integration of this capability delivers the two interfaces required for SATA Express implementation. The SATA Express standard was created to enable SATA and PCIe devices to be used in the same electro-mechanical environment, a necessary innovation because legacy SATA could not accommodate applications requiring above 6 GB/s. The new SATA Express standard addresses an existing, large installed base of legacy SATA devices, provides a path for the emerging market of new SATA devices including SATA-based SSDs, and delivers an innovative solution for new classes of very high performance devices, such as PCI Express (PCIe)-based SSDs. PLDA is an established leader in designing the world's best PCIe interface IP. With this added support for the SATA Express standard, PLDA's XpressRICH3-AXI IP enables SoC, ASIC and FPGA designers to incorporate connectivity to PCIe, SATA and SATA Express devices from a single connector, using a single interface controller IP product, significantly reducing integration efforts. Key features of PLDA's newly SATA Express-compliant XpressRICH3-AXI IP include:
