Description
the Cobalt® family of high-performance 6U OpenVPX boards based on the Xilinx Virtex-6 FPGA. They consist of one or two Model 71641 XMC modules mounted on a VPX carrier board. Model 57641 is a 6U board with one Model 71641 module while the Model 58641 is a 6U board with two XMC modules rather than one. These models include one or two 3.6 GHz, 12-bit A/D converters, one- or two-channel programmable digital downconverters, and four or eight banks of memory.
Features
• Ideal radar and software radio interface solution
• One or two 1-channel mode with 3.6 GHz, 12-bit A/Ds
• Two or four 2-channel mode with 1.8 GHz, 12-bit A/Ds
• Programmable one- or two channel DDCs (Digital Downconverters)
• 2 or 4 GB of DDR3 SDRAM
• PCI Express (Gen. 1 & 2) interface up to x8
• µSync clock/sync bus for multi-board synchronization
• Optional user-configurable gigabit serial interface
• Optional LVDS connections to the Virtex-7 FPGA for custom I/O
• Ruggedized and conduction cooled versions available
