PMC-Stratix Development Kit From Rapid Technology

from Rapid Technology

The Rapid Technology PMC-Stratix board is a high-performance computing subsystem and I/O expansion module for embedded applications in PMC form factor. The board functionality is completely user defined via the high-performance Stratix® FPGA. Sample applications include telecom data processing, compute-intensive digital signal processing (DSP) co-processing, machine control and I/O interfacing for processor host boards. This PCI 2.2 compliant module supports 64-bit, 66 MHz down to 32-bit, 33 MHz master/target PCI interfacing. The board comes with the active and physical layer components for system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) design. Full support for Altera's Nios® embedded processor is provided with SOPC Builder compliant components.
