Meet Performance and SWAP Requirements
Meet Performance and SWAP Requirements


As FPGAs become the technology of choice for a diverse range of custom and high performance applications, strict size, weight and power (SWAP) requirements are becoming more and more important to system developers/designers. Rapid development and fast delivery for these critical applications is an absolute necessity.  Both SWAP and performance requirements can be met easily with Connect Tech’s FreeForm/PCI-104 products.

Featuring the Virtex-5 FPGA and designed to meet PCI-104 form factor requirements, FreeForm/PCI-104 provides a powerful, compact platform for FPGA computing.  

Connect Tech’s reconfigurable FPGA products contain loads of programmable logic and  a wide range of interconnects, making them perfect for digital signal processing, software defined radio, radar, aerospace/defense systems, medical imaging, computer vision and ASIC prototyping, etc. 

Incorporating the Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA into the design of FreeForm/PCI-104 means that users have
access to hardened-IP for commonly used functions such as multipliers and memories, as well as more advanced features such as clock management, high speed serial transceivers and Ethernet MACs.  The Virtex-5's hardened-IP frees FPGA resources, allowing the user to take full advantage of the normal FPGA logic fabric to implement basic or complex logic gate functions.

Use FreeForm/PCI-104
 When time to market is of the essence
 
When field reprogrammability is a must
 
When speed and accuracy are critical
 

Features  
 Xilinx Virtex-5 multi-platform FPGA   3 million logic gates
 8MB flash for embedded code storage   128MB DDR2-400 memory
 64 single ended or 32 LVDS GPIO   2 x 10/100 Ethernet
