ADVISORY/ StarGen to Exhibit StarFabric Product Portfolio at Embedded Systems Conference, Boston.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers Embedded Systems Embedded systems Computer systems that cannot be programmed by the user because they are preprogrammed for a specific task and are buried within the equipment they serve. Conference Boston 2002 Booth: 1109 ADVISORY...for Monday - Thursday (November 18 - 22) --(BUSINESS WIRE) WHO: StarGen, Inc., a fabless semiconductor company and developer of the StarFabric interconnect solution, will exhibit its StarFabric product portfolio. The products that will be showcased include: the SG1010 StarFabric Switch which provides high-speed serial switching within a switched interconnect fabric; the SG2010 PCI-StarFabric Bridge which provides an interface between PCI and StarFabric; and the SFS2100 CompactPCI StarFabric Switch, a PICMG 2.17 compliant, high-bandwidth, cost-effective and flexible solution for switching StarFabric traffic in open, high-availability, carrier class platforms. WHAT: StarGen will be exhibiting its StarFabric product portfolio in Booth: 1109. StarGen developed the StarFabric architecture to address the needs of embedded systems designers who require highly scalable and highly available systems. StarFabric is a backplane and chassis-to-chassis interconnect that is cost-effective, easy to implement, and compatible with existing bus-based architectures. WHERE: Embedded Systems Conference (ESC) Boston will take place at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston. ESC is the technology industry's premier event, helping decision makers and industry professionals stay on the leading edge of embedded systems development. WHEN: The show will take place Monday, November 18 through Thursday, November 22, 2002. About StarGen StarGen (www.stargen.com) is a fabless semiconductor company A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices implemented on semiconductor chips. It achieves an advantage by outsourcing the fabrication of the devices to a specialized semiconductor manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry or "fab. that has developed a new switched interconnect (1) To attach one device to another.

StarGen's technology provides a dramatic increase in equipment performance, reliability, and Quality of Service while providing for the retention of existing standards-based hardware and software investment. StarFabric, available today, also offers customers a seamless roadmap to PCI Express A high-speed peripheral interconnect from Intel introduced in 2002. Note that although sometimes abbreviated "PCX," PCI Express is not the same as "PCI-X" (see PCI-SIG and PCI-X for comparison). As a result of the confusion, "PCI-E" or "PCIe" is the accepted abbreviation. Advanced Switching, when it becomes available in the future. StarGen is headquartered in Marlborough, Massachusetts Marlborough is a city in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, United States. The population was 36,255 at the 2000 census. The name of this town is sometimes spelled as Marlboro, rather than Marlborough, which is the official spelling. . |
