Nowadays, algorithmic trading or robot trading is a trend and “Fast” is the keyword. After a user completes the algorithm that is fast, reliable and applicable to various products in the market. Now, It is time to talk about theory to upgrade hardware in order to benefit the most. Theory of TCP TCP has a handshake process to confirm when...

When data needs to be transferred over the internet, the standard protocol that normally use is TCP or UDP. We already illustrate UDP in the previous article. In this article, we will introduce TOE10GLL, which is TCP/IP stack, and the effect when combining it with Low-Latency EMAC. Why TCP transmission with very low latency required? The advantage of TCP is...

When it comes to communication over the internet, the protocol that normally people are thinking about would not have been far more just TCP or UDP. Now, how to decide which protocol is suitable for your project. Let us look at the properties of each protocol in short brief. TCP is reliable but slow due to handshake which is a...

What is EMAC? EMAC is stand for Ethernet Media Access Control defined by IEEE-802.3 Ethernet standard. It implements a data-link layer in OSI model. The speed is managed by MII (Media Independent Interface) as defined by IEEE-802.3. It is sub-module include in EMAC. EMAC supports several of speed such as 100 Mbps up to 100 Gbps depends on MII’s configuration...

System Architecture From last post, you already know what latency time is and how it is important to you. However, you may curious that how to measure latency time, if you are doing a project, which part of your project can be possible to reduce the latency. In this case, we will demonstrate latency time in 2 cases which are...

In the first topic of IP-core series, let us talk about the basic need behind the technology in this decade and how does it important to our life. Latency time is a good topic to start with. You may curious that what exactly is the latency time and why it is so important. This article might make it more tangible...
