FPGA boards boost DSP capabilities
The Xilinx Virtex-5 FXT FPGAs enable the integration of high-performance GTX serial transceivers and features large numbers of DSP48E slices.
This new high-density Flash mezzanine card can function either as JBOD or as a RAID device via software support.
The PBOD is an excellent small-form-factor solution for those customers that require mass storage in extreme environmental conditions.
In addition to providing the highest density flash storage capacity, PBOD supports data transfer rates up to 40Mbyte/s promising greater performance than competing offerings.
The PBOD is supported natively by operating systems that support USB Flash drives.
This includes VxWorks, Windows and Linux.
PBOD also supports industry standard ECC NAND Flash correction as well as wear leveling on card that eliminates premature device failure due to frequent erase cycles on the same block of Flash memory.
The PBOD is offered in air-cooled and conduction-cooled versions and is available in 8, 16, 24, 32 and 64Gbyte configurations.
