This daughter card, combined with a D.Module2 DSP board, is ideally suited as a main building block for

 

The Xilinx Spartan6 LXT FPGA on this daughter board expands a DSP system with data preprocessing and Gigabit speed serial I/O interfaces. In typical applications the FPGA daughter card will provide the interface to high-speed data acquisition devices and implement data preprocessing to relieve the DSP I/O requirements. Postprocessing, analysis, and algorithm control can then be conveniently performed by the DSP system. Additionally the FPGA may implement supplemental peripherals like PWM controller, frame grabber, CAN Bus controller, etc.

For more information about the FMC standard and an overview of mezzanine boards please visit
Xilinx FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) Standard (ext. Link).

Peripherals and data acquisition subsystems are connected to the FPGA board through max. 98 user definable single-ended signals (48 LVDS signal pairs), and up to three Gigabit links. These I/Os conform to the industry standard VITA 57 FMC specification. A suitable prototyping platform, the D.Module2.Base-FMC, with D.Module2 and a FMC LPC mezzanine site is available.

The DSP is by default connected to the FPGA via the D.Module2 32-bit wide parallel bus interface. Depending on the DSP capabilities alternative data paths exist: Serial Rapid IO (SRIO) on the GTP connector and LVDS (e.g. TigerSHARC® Link Ports) on the EXP connector. The EXP signals are available as free user-programmable I/O if not used for DSP-FPGA communication, e.g. as a base mode CameraLink.

The Spartan6 GTPs (Gigabit Transceivers) provide additional high-speed connectivity interfaces like SRIO for inter-board communications, JESD204/A as a high-speed A/D and D/A interface, SGMII to interface a Gigabit Ethernet PHY, SATA, DisplayPort 1.1, and PCIe v1.1.

The DSP has full access to the FPGA configuration Flash Memory and can re-configure and update the FPGA at any time. Other key features are programmable I/O voltage, 128M Bytes local DDR3 RAM and a JTAG interface for FPGA programming and debugging via Xilinx ChipScopeTM.
