TC3000 is a family of IP Cores offering powerful and flexible turbo product codes. TC3000 is the first IP Core implementing Hamming and double-error-correcting BCH product codes. A highly generic approach allows TC3000 to be precisely optimised for a target application. Features • • • • • • • • Very High FEC performance : Hamming and "BCH-t=2" codes Bitrate customisable : 7 to 25 Mbits/s typical @ 5 iterations Large block sizes : up to 65 kbits On-the-fly change of the code Shortening facilities to adjust packet size and coding rate Single-chip PLD IP Core : Altera APEX, no external memory required Latency reduction by bank-swapping Two selectable configuration interface Bitrate/Complexity trade-off bitrate @ 5iter. 25 Mbit/s TC3014 TC3024 14 Mbit/s TC3012 TC3022 7 Mbit/s TC3011TC3021 2k 5k 10k parity and hamming product codes parity, hamming and BCH t=2 product codes Logic 20k Logic Elements This document contains preliminary information.

The FEC behaviour of the “ BCH t=2” codes makes them particularly attractive for quasi-error free applications. Ö Gaussian channel and QPSK modulation. Results given with 5 -5 iterations.
