Xilinx® brings high-speed connectivity and real-time processing performance to the factory floor with the new Spartan-6 FPGA Industrial Automation Targeted Design Platform and Spartan®-6 FPGA Industrial Ethernet Kit.
The Platform accelerates development of real-time Ethernet networks enabling high-speed connectivity and reliable communications beyond the industrial enterprise to the factory floor
You can now easily integrate multiple Ethernet protocols and custom processing algorithms into industrial network and automation systems using a single Spartan-6 FPGA as a cost-effective, flexible and reprogrammable alternative to application-specific standard product (ASSP) or application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) implementations.
The new platform offers a complete development environment tailored specifically for industrial applications, including network gateways or bridges, programmable logic controllers (PLC), machine vision systems, as well as a variety of embedded control systems.
