Description
MOST PCI Tool Kit provides a high-speed connection between a PC or laptop and a MOST Network. It allows access to packet data and control messages.
The chip set used for these MOST PCI Tool Kit 50e consists of the OS8182 Intelligent Network Interface Controller (INIC) and a PC interface chip. Whereas the INIC is used as an interface to the MOST Network, the PC interface chip implements the connection to the PCI bus. This chip set, together with the corresponding device drivers, forms a complete multimedia interface solution for streaming audio and video as well as transferring packet data and control messages.
Both 44.1 and 48 kHz system frame rates are selectable in timing master mode.
The MOST interface operates in bus master mode for the highest possible data transfer with minimized system overhead for the main CPU.
MOST Device Development
MOST PCI Tool Kit enables software simulation for MOST devices without the need for any additional hardware and can be also used as a “sparring partner” for Devices Under Test. Network devices in the development phase may be controlled with the MOST PCI Tool Kit.
The MOST PCI Tool Kit 50e permits access to the MOST Control Message Service by providing all software necessary to develop a MOST NetServices client directly on the board. It provides the ability to send and receive packet data.
Using
- MOST NetServices Layer I,
- MOST NetServices Layer I and Layer II, or
- MOST NetServices Layer I and Layer II plus the MOST High application
enables to develop a PC-based MOST device simulation.
