NASA/GSFC has a requirement for six XMC/PMC modules; each must have 2 channel 160 Msps 16bit ADC, a Virtex 5 FPGA - SX95T connected directly to the ADC, 16MB ZBT Ram; PCI-X (64-bit, 133MHz), and an XMC connector with 8-lanes of PCI Express; 8 pins of front panel user I/O directly connected to FPGA; 8 pins of XMC connector user I/O directly connected to FPGA. A Development Kit including peripheral component wrappers for XMC/PMC -E2201 FPGA. Includes 8 hours of Signature Support. Annual Maintenance DSW-E2201-100-CD, Embedded Microsoft Windows XP Driver for the XMC/PMC-E2201 - Development License and Annual Maintenance DSW-E2201-004-CD. The algorithms that will be run in this task require the highest performance FPGA to perform the necessary processing functions in real time.
