Description
The AMC518 is an AMC FPGA Carrier for FMC per VITA 57. The AMC518 is compliant to the AMC.1, AMC.2 and/or AMC.4 specification. The unit has an on-board, re-configurable FPGA which interfaces directly to the AMC FCLKA, TCLKA-D, FMC DP0-7 and all FMC LA/HA/HB pairs. The FPGA has an interface to a single DDR3 memory channel (64-bit wide). This allows for large buffer sizes to be stored during processing as well as for queuing the data to the host. The CPU has a separate single bank of DDR3 (32-bit wide).
With a FMC site per VITA 57, each AMC518 in the system has a whole array of mezzanine options available in the marketplace.
