Built around your requirement

Make room for processing.
Build for your data path.

A processing platform that fits the surrounding system.

The right board architecture depends on converter interfaces, data movement and the workload you need to implement. Use the reference FPGA platforms as a starting point for a clear hardware and firmware discussion.

Dual FMC+ FPGA Development Board, reference product image

Dual-FMC+ FPGA platform

A second FPGA-board reference for designs requiring two FMC+ interfaces alongside high-speed connectivity.

  • UltraScale+ FPGA family
  • Two FMC+ interfaces
  • Two QSFP connectors
  • Ethernet and JTAG
Discuss this configuration ↗

Specifications shown describe the individual reference designs, not every custom configuration. Final performance, interfaces and deliverables are agreed after technical review.

Customization discussion

Define what your system needs.

01

FPGA architecture

Review logic resources, memory needs and the processing workload before selecting a device.

02

Mezzanine interfaces

Define FMC+ expansion, converter connections and pin-assignment constraints.

03

High-speed links

Discuss QSFP connectivity, interface protocols and required sustained data throughput.

04

Firmware & DSP scope

Agree the algorithms, control functions, bring-up tasks and verification deliverables needed for the project.

A clear route forward

From requirement to an agreed scope.

01 / DEFINE

Share the application

Outline your signal chain, performance goals and integration constraints.

02 / REVIEW

Assess the options

Review reference architectures and the feasibility of requested changes.

03 / AGREE

Set the project scope

Confirm specifications, engineering deliverables, commercial terms and schedule.

04 / VALIDATE

Plan the evaluation

Agree any prototype, test and acceptance activities required for the project.

Is a DSP algorithm included with each board?

The published references describe FPGA board hardware. Any DSP algorithms, firmware, IP licensing and verification work must be separately defined in the project scope.

Are both reference boards based on the same FPGA family?

No. The quad-FMC+ reference lists UltraScale, while the dual-FMC+ reference lists UltraScale+. Device selection should be confirmed for the proposed configuration.

What information is needed for a quotation?

Send the technical brief, expected quantity, required deliverables and target schedule. Pricing and lead time depend on the agreed design, customization and evaluation scope.
