Stratix 10 Dual FMC+ Appliance

Hitek Systems

With today's fast paced development cycles and shorter time to market requirements system designers and engineers are constantly looking for reusable and custom of the shelf (COTS) hardware solutions and FPGA IP cores to fulfill their needs and be competitive. These off the shelf hardware solutions are often not flexible enough or customizable to meet the growing customer requirements. Stratix 10 Dual FMC+ FPGA 1U (half-width) appliance from Hitek Systems solves this problem by providing a complete and flexible hardware/mechanical solution with benefits of an off the shelf hardware but also giving flexibility of a customer specific customizable solution. The dual FMC/FMC+ interfaces on the appliance combined with ability to customize the front panel and use of Intel's high performance 14nm Stratix 10 FPGA, provides flexibility of implementing a wide range applications. All LA/HA Differential pairs and all 24 SERDES transceiver lanes are routed to Stratix 10 FPGA to allow implementation of any standard or custom SERDES protocol. In addition, the appliance also provides option of using the Stratix 10 SOC quad code ARM Cortex A-53 host processor or a COMe Type10 carrier host for applications requiring higher processing power. A complete and verified Stratix 10 FPGA firmware/C API board support package (BSP) is also provided so customers can concentrate on their secret sauce with ease.
