The Lattice Semiconductor DC-SCM LVDS Tunneling Protocol and Interface (LTPI) IP Core is an Open Computer Project (OCP) Data Center – Secure Control Module (DC-SCM) Standards compatible solution which is introduced in the DC-SCM 2.0 Specification. DC‑SCM aims to move common server management, security and control features from a typical motherboard into a module designed in different form factors (horizontal, vertical). The basic idea is to enable a common security and management module form and interface which can be used across datacenter platforms.
DC-SCM LTPI IP Core provides a solution for minimal wire connection between two FPGAs to provide TDM-based bidirectional communication, aggregating multiple data such as I2C, GPIO and UART to add more flexibility to a customer’s system and board design. This solution is compliant with Datacenter-ready Secure Control Module (DC-SCM) 2.0.
Multiple interfaces tunneling – Supports tunneling of more interfaces such as GPIO, I2C, UART, OEM, and data channel aggregation.
High bandwidth capabilities – Supports up to 800 Mbps LVDS data rate for MachXO3™ and Mach-NX family devices and up to 1200 Mbps LVDS data rate for MachXO5-NX family devices.
