VPX580

The VPX580 is a 6U VPX FPGA Carrier based on Xilinx UltraScale+ XCZU19EG MPSoC FPGA with dual FMC+ sites. The unit has an onboard, re-configurable FPGA which interfaces directly to the VPX P1-P2 connectors, FMC+ DP0-15 and all FMC LA/HA/HB pairs. Each FMC+ site has 16   SERDES routed from the FPGA and each site is supported by an Interlaken hardcore processor.

The FPGA has interface to a single DDR4 memory channel (64-bit wide). This allows for large buffer sizes to be stored during processing as well as for queuing the data to the host. The module has onboard 64 GB of Flash, 128 MB of Boot Flash and an SD Card option.

The XCZU19EG FPGA has 1968 DSP Slices and 1143K logic cells. The XCZU19EG includes a quad-core ARM processor. Dual GbE from P1 is 1000-BaseBX to the ARM processor.

Onboard microcontroller implements Tier 2 health management.
