FPL Demo: Kyokko - An Aurora 64b66b compatible 100 Gbps Communication Controller

Abstract

Kyokko is an open, vendor-independent implementation of Xilinx's Aurora 64b66b protocol. It provides the interoperability of both Xilinx and Intel FPGAs over high-speed serial links such as optical, coaxial, or SFP cables. Currently, it works on Kintex, Virtex, Cyclone, and Arria FPGAs with less resource requirements and latency than Xilinx's Aurora 64b66b core. We'll make an on-line demonstration of connectivity among these FPGAs.
