Austin, TX – 4DSP announced a new high-performance PCI Express (PCIe) card today called the PC870 which provides one 10-bit analog-to-digital (A/D) channel at 5Gsps and one 10-bit digital-to-analog (D/A) channel at 5Gsps. Adapted from the Kintex UltraScale-based PC820 FPGA carrier card, the PC870 features advanced DSP capabilities, serial connectivity options, 4GB of DDR3 SDRAM, and a PCIe Gen3 interface that can support up to eight lanes.
The low-latency data path of the PC870 enables 2.2GHz of instantaneous analog bandwidth in both the receive and transmit directions. The analog signal input and output are available on the front panel on AC-coupled coax connections. The card also features a single-lane SFP+ module as a serial peripheral interface, and a dual-lane 14.2 Gbps FireFly connector is available as an optional interface.
“The combination of the Xilinx UltraScale FPGA with high-bandwidth A/D and D/A capabilities makes the PC870 a very effective choice for bringing maximum DSP performance to the PCI Express form factor,” said Pierrick Vulliez, CTO of 4DSP. “Furthermore, the SFP+ and FireFly options offer serial connectivity choices for designers of innovative FPGA-based systems.” The PC870 is an excellent choice for applications that require large-band signal digitization or generation through the use of accelerated frequency domain algorithms such as RADAR/SONAR, wireless telecommunications, and aerospace test and measurement instruments.
