FPGA Modules with Xilinx® Virtex™-5 FPGA from ACROMAG

	Building on the success of our previous lines of user-configurable FPGA modules, this new product family features even larger FPGAs and more powerful digital signal processing capabilities. l Xilinx® Virtex™-5 FPGA The PMC-VLX and PMC-VSX boards use a high-performance Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA, but remain affordable for mainstream applications. Three models let you select an FPGA to match your requirements. An engineering design review of PMC-VLX/VSX, pdf 2MB High-Performance Memory Two banks of DDR2 DRAM memory are available for receipt and transfer of high-speed data from the I/O data ports on the board’s front and rear connectors. Dual-port SRAM memory stores data to be passed, via DMA transfer, to the PCI bus. One dual port is attached to the FPGA and the other to the local bus. High-Speed PCI-X Interface Our high-bandwidth PCI-X interface ensures fast data throughput. The PCI-X interface supports 133MHz, 100MHz, and 66MHz PCI bus modes. AXM Plug-in I/O Interface Cards I/O processing is handled on a separate mezzanine card that plugs into the FPGA base board. A variety of these external I/O cards offer an interface for your analog and digital I/O signals. • RS485 I/O • TTL/RS485 combo • LVDS I/O • Low voltage TTL I/O • 14-bit A/D • Custom Typical Applications Although there is no limit to the uses for Acromag’s FPGA I/O boards, several applications are ideal for this new technology. Common uses include military servers, telecommunication, and digital signal processing. Take advantage of the optional conduction cooling for use in hostile environments. Engineering Design Kit Acromag provides software utilities and examples to simplify your programming and get you started quickly. A JTAG interface enables on-board VHDL simulation.
