Abstract

This paper presents the full-duplex architecture of the X-MatchPRO lossless data compressor and its highly integrated implementation in a non-volatile reprogrammable ProASIC FPGA. The X-MatchPRO architecture offers a data independent throughput of 100 Mbytes/s and simultaneous compression/decompression for a combine full-duplex performance of 200 Mbytes/s clocking at 25 MHz. Both compression and decompression channels fit into a single A500K130 ProASIC FPGA with a typical compression ratio that halves the original uncompressed data. The device is specially targeted to enhance the performance of Gbit/s data networks and storage applications where it can double the performance of the original system.
