CHAMP-FX

The CHAMP-FX harnesses the tremendous computing power of two Xilinx Virtex-II Pro™ FPGAs for digital signal processing applications such as radar, sonar and signal intelligence. The computing power of the FPGAs is complemented with more than 10GB/sec of I/O capability, implemented with an array of technologies including high-speed differential serial RocketIO™, XMC/PMC sites and StarFabric interfaces. With both large DDR SDRAM and fast DDRII SRAM memory, the FPGAs have more than 8GB/sec of memory bandwidth to service memory intensive algorithms.
