XMC Module with Artix-7 FPGA XMC-7A50-AP323

The XMC-7A50-AP323 offers a reconfigurable Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA along with 48 TTL Digital I/O Channels.  The FPGA provides a user configurable bridge between the host processor and a custom digital interface via PCI Express.

Making it perfect for COTS applications especially signal processing.

The Acromag XMC-7A50-AP323 is a XMC Module with Artix-7 FPGA.  Firstly, it offers 48 TTL channels.  However, other build options are available such as:

  • Custom: Other I/O combinations are possible, contact Acromag for more information
  • Build A: 24 x EIA-485 / 422 Channels
  • Build B: 24 x TTL and 12 x EIA-485/422 Channels
  • Build C: 24 x LVDS Channels

 

Secondly, the XMC modules combine the user customisable FPGA with Digital I/O and high performance analog inputs.  Resulting in high density signal processing.

Thirdly, the analog inputs monitor 20 differential or 40 single ended channels.  Therefore, software or an external hardware input can trigger A/D conversions for synchronisation to external events.  Also the on-board precision voltage references allow accurate software calibration of the module without external instruments.

Finally, the engineering design kit is very helpful.  It provides users with basic information to allow them to develop custom FPGA firmware to download to the Xilinx.  However, users should be fluent in using Xilinx Vivado® design tools.
