VadaTech Announces new Xilinx UltraScale+TM XCZU15EG FPGA Carrier Boards (In both AMC and 3U VPX)

Henderson, NV – July 27, 2018 – VadaTech, a leading manufacturer of integrated systems, embedded boards, enabling software and application-ready platforms, announces two new products based on the Xilinx Zynq® UltraScale+™ MPSoC (MultiProcessor System on Chip).

The AMC581 is an AMC FPGA Carrier with a single FMC (VITA 57) site and is compliant to AMC.1, AMC.2 and AMC.4 specifications. The on-board re-configurable FPGA interfaces directly to the AMC FCLKA, TCLKA-D, FMC DP0-9 and all FMC LA/HA/HB pairs. The FPGA interfaces to a single DDR4 memory channel (64-bit wide) for local data storage. The module has on board 64 GB of Flash, 128 MB of boot flash and an SD Card as an option.

The VPX581 is a 3U VPX FPGA Carrier with the same base architecture, making it easy for developers to port between these two embedded computing form factors. The unit includes a dedicate Health Management processor for use with Chassis Management solutions supporting VITA 46.11 Tier-2 command set and is compatible with a chassis having JTAG Switch Module (JSM).

Both modules are based on Xilinx UltraScale+TM XCZU15EG MPSoC FPGA which provide 3,528 DSP Slices and 746k logic cells. The XCZU15EG includes a quad-core ARM application processor, dual-core ARM real-time processor and Mali™ graphics processing unit, as well as, over 26 Mb of block RAM and 31 Mb of UltraRAM. The device is aimed at applications such as situational awareness, secure networking and machine vision.

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
