Press Release - CHAMP AV8 |
|
UNITRONIX introduces Curtiss Wright Controls' CHAMP AV8, an OpenVPX DSP Board. |
||||||
 |
Curtiss Wright Controls have introduced the CHAMP-AV8, its first rugged, high performance OpenVPX DSP (digital signal processing) engine based on the new quad-core Intel® Core
TM
i7-2715QE processor. The new CHAMP-AV8 is also Curtiss-Wright Controls’ first DSP engine to offer IDT's upcoming Gen2 PCIe-to-sRIO protocol conversion bridging semiconductor product, bringing the performance and bandwidth advantages of sRIO switch fabrics to the 2
generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor-based embedded computing applications. |
|||||
“The combination of four cores and doubling of floating point performance provided by the new Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions (Intel® AVX) instruction set is very exciting for our signal processing customers,” said Lynn Patterson, vice president and general manager of Curtiss-Wright Controls Embedded Computing. “With Intel’s Embedded Computing Division’s commitment to long life-cycle supply, these new processors will power a new generation of higher performance and power efficient radar and signal intelligence systems.” |

The CHAMP-AV8 multi-processing board brings the floating-point performance of the quad-core Intel® Core
TM
i7-2715QE processor to the OpenVPX form factor standard. Utilizing a pair of processors, the CHAMP-AV8 delivers performance rated at up to 269 GFLOPs. With a 21GB/s (peak) DDR3 memory subsystem connected directly to the processor, the Intel® Core
TM
i7-2715QE is able to maximize the throughput of its Intel AVX vector processing units and process larger vectors at peak rates significantly greater than was possible with previous AltiVec™-based systems. The CHAMP-AV8 features a high-bandwidth PCI Express® (PCIe) architecture, with onboard PCIe connections between the processors and the XMC site. With 8GB of Flash and up to 16GB of SDRAM, the CHAMP-AV8 is designed for applications with demanding storage, data logging and sensor processing requirements. |
| The CHAMP AV8 is available in Q2 of 2011. For further information please contact UNITRONIX on 61-2-49773511 |
