A Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA enables high performance DSP applications to be implemented with low levels of power consumption. The FPGA processing is supplemented by an onboard PowerPC for standalone operation, communications management and user applications. VXS-620 maximizes sensor I/O density with two PMC/XMC sites. These enable multi-channel signal digitization schemes to be implemented on-card, or pre-digitized signals to be brought on-board using digital I/O. Network I/O such as Ethernet or 1553 can also be implemented using mezzanine cards. As part of the scalable REVX series of products from Nallatech, the VXS-620 is complemented by further PMC/XMC mezzanines, VXS processing engines, and application development tools.
