Intel claims it's gaining momentum in network processors

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- It's hard to say who's winning the network-processor race, but Intel Corp. claims to have made some major inroads in the market.

Intel has garnered about 100 design wins since it entered the network-processor business in early 1999, claims Pradip Shankar, general manager of the company's Edge Processor Operation. "We've experienced a lot of momentum in terms of design wins," he said in an interview with SBN.

In 1999, Intel rolled out the IXP1200, a chip based on the StrongARM RISC processor architecture. Geared for networking equipment and related products, this chip also separately embeds six RISC-based engines, each running at 166- or 200-MHz speeds.

Intel had planned to formally launch a new version of the processor, in which each RISC-based engine will run at 232 MHz. However, information about the new product slipped out this week (see Feb. 15 story).
