Embedded FPGA and DSP Computing

Unitronix supplies Australia’s widest range of FPGA, DSP embedded computing cards and black box systems, covering the whole applications market for high end embedded FPGA and signal processing solutions. Cards on PMC, XMC, VME, VXS, VPX 3U and 6U, “Ether to Ethernet” black box solutions, and specialised development software for FPGA Systems utilised in embedded applications. We have a 20 year long history of providing embedded image and signal processing solutions to Australian application developers. As such Unitronix can be relied upon to be knowledgeable and helpful to Design Engineers looking into signal processing applications. After al,l it’s not easy designing embedded systems full stop, it’s definately tricker with signal processing solutions and when this all needs to be ruggedized and miniaturised into a field deployable solution then you really need to be talking to us. Unitronix can help with data flow architectures, computational element resource management, wider systems architecture and data structures. In addition and as an example, Curtis Wright (one of our suppliers), have the worlds most comprehensive and easy to use resource systems management software tools that will be of huge utility to Engineers when developing a larger signal array and processing capability. For more details on these products please contact UNITRONIX on (02) 49773511, or sales@unitronix.com.au. 

VME – VPX  Based Solutions

Curtis Wright CHAMP FX2 Hybrid processor, Dual  Xilinx V5s with MPC8641D:       
The CHAMP-FX2 is Curtiss-Wright's next-generation FPGA-based computing platform. Utilizing a 6U VPX-REDI form factor, the CHAMP-FX2 harnesses the tremendous computing power of two Xilinx Virtex™-5 FPGAs, combined with the high-performance floating-point capabilities of the Freescale 8641D dual-core PowerPC™ processor and the exceptional performance and flexibility of a Serial RapidIO switching fabric to deliver unprecedented computational densities

Also available from Unitronix, SBCs and chassis for the VME – VPX  to build full systems.

VXS RF Digatisers with Three (3)  Large FPGA Resources on Board

TEKMICRO High Speed Digitisers:
The TekMicro QuiXilica V5 Architecture meets the needs of demanding sensor-processing applications across a range of environments.  The QuiXilica V5 architecture uses the latest field programmable gate array (FPGA)  Virtex5 based processors from Xilinx, and advanced DDR3 SDRAM, and the latest communications technologies available. The triple FPGA architecture implemented on each card has been designed for optimum processing of digitised RF signals. There are seven cards in the QuiXilica range.

1). Titan V5 1.0 GSPS 4 Channel ADC @ 12bits, and 1.2 GSPS 4 Channel DAC @ 14bits.
2). Triton V5 2.2 GSPS ADC @ 10 bits and 3.0GSPS DAC @ 12 bits
3). Tarvos V5 185 MSPS 6 Channels ADC @ 16 bits and 1 Channel DAC @ 16 bits
4). Charon V5 1.2 GSPS 8 Channel DAC @ 12bits.
5). Atlas V5 1.0 GSPS ADC 8 Channels @ 12 bits
6). Orion V5 3.0 GSPS ADC 2 Channels @ 12 bits
7). Neptune V5 2.2 GSPS 2 Channel ADC @ 10 bits

Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGAs are the heart of the TekMicro V5 cards. The FPGAs interface between the digitiser chips, memory and I/O resources to provide a platform for implementing high performance real time processing. The V5 cards  are configured with two SX95T FPGAs numbered 2 and 0 and one LX110T FPGA (optional LX220T, SX240T, or FX100T ) numbered FPGA 1. All FPGAs are interconnected by wide parallel LVDS busses and also via high speed serial links using the Xilinx Rocket IO MGTs. Two SFP+ sites and one QSFP site are provided on the front panel which utilize standard fiber optic or 1000BaseT modules providing physical layer support for standard protocols such as Gigabit Ethernet, Serial FPDP (ANSI VITA 17.1 & 17.2), and Fibre Channel. 

Also available from Unitronix, SBCs and chassis for VXS to build complete systems

AMC Advanced Mezzanien Card Solution

Available as Demo Systems from Unitronix

BittWare FPGA-computing Advanced Mezzanine Card with ALTERA Stratix IV GX FPGA with FMC site:
Based on Altera’s Stratix IV GX FPGA, BittWare’s S4-AMC (S4AM) is a mid-size, single wide AdvancedMC that can be attached to AdvancedTCA (Advanced Telecom Computer Architecture) carriers or other cards equipped with AMC bays, and used in MicroTCA systems. The S4AM features a high-density, low-power Altera Stratix IV GX FPGA designed specifically for serial I/O-based applications, creating a completely flexible, reconfigurable AMC. BittWare’s ATLANTiS FrameWork, in conjunction with the FINe Host/Control Bridge, greatly simplifies application development and integration of this powerful board.

Also available from Unitronix, CPUs Intel and PPC, Ethernet, Video, and chassis to build AMC form factor systems.
