CommAgility has launched a new Advanced Mezzanine Card module, further expanding its range of processing subsystems. The AMC-3D74 includes a front panel mounted Serial RapidIO (SRIO) interface, and provides a cost-effective, high performance solution for test equipment and general purpose DSP processing applications.
Multiple 10Gbps SRIO interfaces are provided for radio cards and any customer-specific I/O requirements. The SRIO interfaces are also accessible via the AdvancedMC backplane, and optical I/O can be provided as an option. The AMC-3D74 also provides Gigabit Ethernet and RocketIO via the AMC backplane.
The AMC-3D74 is a single width, full-size PICMG AMC module. For high processing density, it is based around three TMC320C6474 multicore DSPs from Texas Instruments, running at 1 or 1.2GHz, and a Virtex-5 FPGA from Xilinx.
Edward Young, managing director at CommAgility, said, "This new module provides nine DSP cores and a powerful FPGA to give excellent processing performance - coupled with the front panel Serial RapidIO interface that is required for certain customer applications."
A range of build options are available, and further customisation is possible in volume, to enable the best technical and commercial fit to a customer application to be achieved. The new module has been tested and proven with a range of third-party software, which reduces system development costs and helps cut time to market for OEMs.
The AMC-3D74 is available now.
