IntelliProp NVMe Host Accelerator IP Core (IPC-NV164-HI)
Block Diagram

Overview
IntelliProp’s IPC-NV164-HI NVMe Host Accelerator IP Core provides a simplified, high-bandwidth interface to industry standard NVMe storage devices. The IntelliProp NVMe Host Accelerator Core provides a small footprint processor register interface or RTL state-machine register interface for data movement between a user-defined data buffer and an NVMe target. Additionally, the NVMe Host Accelerator IP Core requires minimal knowledge of the PCIe and NVMe specification. The IP Core handles initialization of the PCIe Root Complex, building command submissions, parsing command completions. The protocol interface is compliant to the NVM Express 1.3 specification and is fully verified using a coverage driven methodology in pseudo random simulation. Applications for the IPC-NV164A-HI include: Protocol-X to NVMe Bridge; NVMe to NVMe Bridge Systems; NVMe Fabric Accelerators; NVMe RAID Applications; Embedded applications requiring non-volatile storage.
