SFM Quad Serial FPDP PMC

Quad Serial FPDP PMC Module

  • One, two or four 2.5Gbps fiber optic transceivers fitted as standard
  • Supports 1.0625, 2.125 and 2.5Gbps serial data rates
  • 64Mbytes DDR2 SDRAM buffering per channel
  • PMC supports 133MHz PCI-X
  • Link speed is field configurable
  • All serial FPDP operational topologies are supported including: simple point-to-point data streams, copy and copy/loop modes
  • Windows XP, VxWorks and Linux support
  • Four independant point-to-point data streams to the host

The SFM uses highly integrated FPGA technology to provide 1, 2 or 4 channels of fast, low latency point-to-point ANSI/VITA 17.1-2003 serial FPDP (sFPDP) in an PMC module. Each independent channel supports the standard sustained sFPDP data rates of 1.0625Gbps (105Mbytes/s), 2.125Gbps (210Mbytes/s) and 2.5Gbps (247Mbytes/s) through front panel fiber optic transceivers. Each channel may be operated as a sFPDP transmitter or receiver. Smooth dataflow is ensured using a 256Mbytes pool of DDR2 SDRAM to provide each datastream with 64Mbytes of FIFO buffering.

An FPGA based PCI-X core provides the module with a host interface through the connector.

Applications
The module is ideal for point-to-point or broadcast communications between remote sensor arrays and processing systems in applications such as:

  • Radar / Sonar
  • In-flight / Shipboard systems
  • Electronic warfare / SIGINT / ELINT / Surveillance
  • Real-time imaging / Inspection / Machine vision
  • Medical imaging
