The MicroTCA backplane can deliver power to run the most demanding applications, up to 80W. The challenge resides in the fact that each watt of power must be dissipated by the small AdvancedMC card through the chassis’ cooling system. Thanks to the Xilinx Virtex-6 FPGA which uses 50% less power than previous generations, a smaller and simpler heat sink can be used, and tightly integrated µModule DC/DC Regulator Systems from Linear Technology allow for real world component count savings, making the Perseus 601X board from Lyrtech the ideal platform for high-performance, high-bandwidth, low-latency processing applications. Customers will also want to take full advantage of the FMC (Vita-57.1) expansion site, which offers almost endless I/O possibilities.
Join Amelia as she chats with experts from Linear Technology, Xilinx, and Lyrtech about getting uTCA up and running with a super slick development kit – complete with power by Linear Technology, Virtex-6 FPGAs by Xilinx, and an innovative board set from Lyrtech.
