XPedite2570 | 3U VPX Xilinx Kintex® UltraScale™ FPGA-Based Fiber-Optic I/O Module

The XPedite2570 is a high-performance, reconfigurable, conduction- or air-cooled, 3U VPX, FPGA processing module based on the Xilinx Kintex® UltraScale™ family of FPGAs. With multiple high-speed fabric interfaces, x8 PCI Express Gen3, 12 high-speed fiber-optic transceivers, and 8 GB of DDR4-2400 SDRAM in two channels, the XPedite2570 is ideal for customizable, high-bandwidth, signal-processing applications.The XPedite2570 is a reconfigurable FPGA resource designed to meet the demands of high-bandwidth applications such as packet processing, signal processing, and DSP-intensive applications. It features 12 rugged, protocol-independent fiber optic transceivers operating at up to 10.3125 Gb/s, along with 8 GB of DDR4 ECC SDRAM in two independent channels capable of up to 38 GB/s aggregate bandwidth.The XPedite2570 has several options for high-performance backplane I/O, including a x8 Gen3 PCI Express interface, dual GTH transceivers with a maximum data rate of 16.375 Gb/s, and up to 44 LVDS transceivers for user I/O.The XPedite2570 incorporates 12 high-data-rate, protocol-independent fiber-optic receivers. 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 XPedite2570 is designed to be a user-programmable FPGA resource, using the powerful Xilinx Kintex® UltraScale™ XCKU115 FPGA to support high-performance signal processing, sensor I/O, data acquisition, data recording, and linking systems in a range of protocols.The XPedite2570 provides a high-performance, feature-rich solution capable of interfacing to and processing streaming data from a wide variety of sensors. The X-ES FPGA Development Kit (FDK) is provided to support the requirements of high-performance, real-time, embedded, streaming-data applications and simplify FPGA development. X-ES’ FDK includes IP blocks, HDL, test benches, Linux drivers, and complete example designs for the XPedite2570.
