Reno, NV -- The aboriginal in a alternation of Xilinx Virtex 6 FPGA based XMC and PMC boards has been launched by 4DSP Inc. The new FM680 appearance a different architecture and accomplishment address that provides barter with beat configurability alleged BLAST (Board Level Advanced Scalable Technology). 4DSP created BLAST to advanced the accomplishment action for chump specific configurations which commonly adjournment the assembly aeon and add to assembly costs.
In accession to BLAST, the FM680 offers advancements in agenda arresting processing (DSP) over antecedent FPGA technologies. The Xilinx Virtex 6 provides added accessible FPGA assets at essentially bargain ability burning and accordingly generated heat.
Because of the afterimage of the FM680, it is ideal for accelerated prototyping as able-bodied as assembly of video applications area there is a charge for abounding FPGA argumentation assets for specialized angel processing. The FM680 is just as able-bodied ill-fitted for RADAR and SONAR arresting processors and specialized software authentic radio (SDR) as acclimated in the US Navy’s JTRS Program.
At a starting investment of $5,995, coupling the advance of the Xilinx Virtex 6 FPGA with BLAST, the FM680 promises to breach the price-performance barrier for abounding added users. Customer will get greater granularity while still befitting a accelerated accomplishment action in place
Up to 5 BLAST ascent sites or ‘BLAST sites' of BGA blazon with anniversary 100 single-ended I/O pins affiliated to the Virtex FPGA can be army as an assembly. The BLAST abstraction allows barter a mix of 5 combinations of anamnesis devices, JPEG2000 codec, committed arresting processor, H-264 MPEG-4, 32Gbyte solid-state drives and abounding more.
As an analogy of the abeyant allowances of BLAST and the FM680, Douglas Sherrod, Director of Marketing and Business Development at 4DSP commented, "A acceptable archetype is a contempo customer’s appeal to accept 4DSP apparatus the Texas Instrument TMS320C6457 DSP cavity on a bifold BLAST. This accustomed the chump to cull advanced bequest DSP cipher to be re-used alternating with a circuitous algorithm implemented central the Virtex 6 FPGA, appropriately extenuative them bags of dollars of investment in accurate bequest DSP code."
The FM680 follows on the heals of the actual acknowledged Virtex 5 based FM489 Series area above agreement options area formed out application 4DSP’s just-in-time (JIT) action BLAST concept. This accomplishment dash excels in accouterment barter with the adeptness to specify architectural appearance like anamnesis type, added arresting processors, microcontrollers, video CODECs, solid-state drives and custom circuits.
Specific variants of the FM680 will be formed out aural the next few months. Amongst them, the VID675 will affection a six codec JPEG2000 accouterments compression engine based on the Analog Devices ADV212. The VID675 is acceptable for on-the-fly angel processing from assorted cameras and top acceleration absolute time compression. With abiding achievement of 350Mpixels/s, the VID675 allows accompanying compression of 16 black video streams 640x480, appropriately aperture the aperture to a new branch of imaging systems in a ablaze weight, low ability and baby anatomy factor. UAVs or agenda imaging applications that crave lossless compression in absolute time can all account from the a lot of beat achievement offered by the VID675.
Douglas explained, "We see the VID675 as the absolute crammer for the next bearing of 360 amount situational acquaintance in angel processors for both manned and unmanned action vehicles. Our account to the troops is to action bright eyes technology that provides the arch bend in the a lot of ambitious situations."
FM680 and VID675 Series processors are absolutely backed by 4DSP’s engineering casework program, area specific FPGA algebraic processes are developed to accommodated customer’s different and accurately authentic needs.
