The XPedite2403 is a high-performance, reconfigurable, conduction- or air-cooled XMC module based on the user-programmable AMD (formerly Xilinx) Virtex-7 family of FPGAs. With dual x8 PCI Express Gen3 interfaces, external memory, 24 high-speed fiber-optic receivers, and 8 GB of DDR3 ECC SDRAM in two channels, the XPedite2403 is ideal for customizable, high-bandwidth, data-processing, and data acquisition applications.
The XPedite2403 incorporates 24 high data rate, protocol-independent fiber-optic receivers that comply to ARINC 804. The fiber-optic receivers utilize 50/125 µm multi-mode fiber with MT connectors, which can easily be connected to the backplane (VITA 66). The fiber-optic receivers are qualified over the full -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range for reliable performance in extreme environments.
The XPedite2403 is designed to be a user-programmable FPGA resource, using the powerful Virtex-7 690T FPGA to support high-performance signal processing, sensor I/O, data acquisition, data recording, and linking systems in a range of protocols.
X-ES’s Firmware Development Kit (FDK) includes IP blocks, HDL, Test Benches, Linux drivers, and complete example designs for the XPedite2403.
