FPGA and PowerPC VXS Multiprocessor Xilinx® Virtex™-5 FPGA for high performance processing On-board PowerPC CPU for standalone operation, communications management and user applications Two PMC/XMC sites for maximum I/O density and flexibility Development Kits for Linux and VxWorks, including comprehensive FPGA IP core library
Overview The VXS-621™ PowerPC® and FPGA multiprocessor is designed to meet the signal processing needs of modern signal intelligence, software defined radio and radar applications. A Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA enables high performance DSP applications to be implemented with low levels of power consumption. The FPGA processing is supplemented by an onboard PowerPC for standalone operation, communications management and user applications. The VXS-621 maximizes sensor I/O density with two PMC/XMC sites. These enable multi-channel signal digitization schemes to be implemented on-card, or pre-digitized signals to be brought ® on-board using digital I/O. Network I/O such as Ethernet or 1553 can also be implemented using mezzanine cards. As part of the scalable REVX series of products from Nallatech, the VXS-621 is complemented by further PMC/XMC mezzanines, VXS processing engines, and application development tools.
