Putting it all together

There never seems to be too much when it comes to having programmable hardware. The CHAMP-FX4 from Curtiss-Wright Controls Defense Solutions is an OpenVPX 6U FPGA engine featuring triple on-board Xilinx Virtex-7 devices in a single chassis slot. The board’s processing throughput is rated at >100 GBps for both memory bandwidth and backplane I/O bandwidth.

Two of the CHAMP-FX4’s three Virtex-7 FPGAs serve as “I/O” FPGAs and are connected to two FMC sites as well as to the backplane SERDES. The third Virtex-7 device is the board’s “aggregator” FPGA and is connected to the backplane expansion plane.

The CHAMP-FX4 is also the first 6U VPX product to support the Xilinx Zynq-7000 SoC, which includes an embedded dual-core ARM Cortex A9 processor. The Zynq device is able to provide an efficient processor footprint, freeing more of the board’s real estate for FPGA related processing.
