We are proposing "PPRAM-Link": a new high-speed communication standard for merged-DRAM/logic SoC architecture. PPRAM-Link standard is composed of physical/logical layers and an API for the upper software layer, which are standardized by PPRAM Consortium. We developed a PPRAM-Link Interface IP family, or "PLIF Core" that realizes logical protocols necessary for subaction-level communications, and it can be applied to various applications. In addition, we designed an FPGA-based PCI-to-PPRAM-Link board for inter-PC/WS communications.
