Kintex-7 FPGA Modules XMC-7K AX

The Acromag XMC-7K AX are a Xilinx Kintex-7 FPGA Modules with Plug-in IO.

Firstly, the FPGA is enhanced with a high-speed memory with throughput to a serial bus interface, making it a powerful I/O processor module.

Secondly, both front and rear I/O is supported. Front I/O processing is supported with plug-in AXM mezzanine cards. A variety of AXM I/O cards are available to add the flexibility of a wide range of analog and digital I/O to your design.

The rear I/O in this FPGA Module has an eight lane high speed serial interface on the P16 XMC port for customer installed soft cores. Also, P16 supports 34 SelectIO channels. The P4 port adds another 60 SelectIO and global clock lines. SelectIO signals are Kintex-7 FPGA pins. These support single ended I/O such as LVCMOS, HSTL, SSTL and differential I/O standards such as LVDS, HT, LVPECL, BLVDS, HSTL, and SSTL.

Available in two versions

Kintex-7 are available in two versions one with 325k or 410k logic cells. This product offers the opportunity to increase DSP algorithm performance for faster throughput using multiple channels and parallel hardware architectures. Free up CPU cycles by offloading algorithmic intensive tasks to the FPGA co-processor. System performance optimised with MicroBlaze™ Soft processors software.

Acromag’s Engineering Design Kit offers software utilities and example VHDL code to simplify your programming to allow product quicker to market. A JTAG interface allows on board debugging. Maximise your FPGA performance with Xilinx tools such as Vivado or ISE Design Suite. Plus, ChipScope Pro tools can quickly debug logic and serial interfaces.
