VP680 Virtex™ 6 3U VPX

VITA 46 Compliant FMC Expansion

Description

This product can be used in the VPX360, VPX361, and VPX362.

The VP680 is a high performance VITA 46 (VPX) standard compliant card with advanced digital signal processing capabilities. The design has been targeted for customer programmable implementations of complex FPGA algorithms for Digital Signal Processing (DSP) applications. The VP680 product is in the 3U VPX form factor, offering various direct on-board interface options that are closely coupled to large - fast on-board memory resources of the Xilinx Virtex™-6 FPGA. The VP680 is an excellent choice for high performance applications that require the use of accelerated frequency-domain algorithms such as with FFTs. 4DSP offers many off-the-shelf Intellectual Property (IP) cores for applications that require the highest level of performance.
