Simi Valley, CA – November 19, 2008 — Innovative Integration announces the X5-COM XMC IO module featuring four, 4.125 Gbps serial rapid IO (SRIO) ports directly connected to a Virtex5 FPGA computing core with DRAM and SRAM memory,and PCI Express host interface. With supporting IP, the X5-COM is ideal for computational intensive applications for Ethernet packet processing, encryption and test.
A Xilinx Virtex5 FPGA with 512MB DDR2 DRAM and 4MB QDR-II SRAM memory provides a very high performance computing core. Either the SXT95 or FXT100 Virtex5 FPGA is available. The FX100T version has four Ethernet MACs and 2 PowerPCs in the FPGA logic fabric.
In addition to four SRIO links providing connectivity via front-panel SFP connectors, the X5-COM module implements Innovative’s powerful Velocia architecture featuring a high performance, 8-lane PCI Express interface that provides over 1 GB/s sustained transfer rates to the host. Four additional private SRIO links with over 800 MB/s capacity via the P16 connector are provided for system integration.
The X5 family can be fully customized using VHDL and MATLAB using the FrameWork Logic toolset. The MATLAB BSP supports real-time hardware-in-the-loop development using the graphical, block diagram Simulink environment with Xilinx System Generator. Software tools for host development include C++ libraries and drivers for Windows and Linux. Application examples demonstrating the module features and use are provided.
“The X5-COM provides the well-integrated COTS solution for Wireless Remote Radio Head IF OBSAI Processing for which our customers have been seeking a solution” remarks Jim Henderson, President of Innovative Integration. “Additionally, “ Henderson continues, “the module is an ideal match for Ethernet packet processing, Communications test equipment, FPGA computing nodes, Real-time Data Encryption and Remote IO Interfacing”.
