Rough, REDI, and now FPGAs

Thursday June 12, 2008

By now you've heard of VXS - and maybe even VPX - but just what the heck do they all mean? After all, you're still supporting systems with VME32, and "2eSST" sounds like a European supercar. Well, strap in, because serial fabric-enabled VME boards in VXS and VPX flavors are now available off-the-shelf. Additionally, the VPX-REDI standard allows for ultra high heat and liquid cooling, while the new FMC mezzanine complements XMCs by directly bolting FPGA co-processors to base cards. Alphabet soup? You bet. This E-cast sorts it all out for you so you're "REDI" when your boss asks.

Moderator: Chris Ciufo, Group Editorial Director, Military and Aerospace Group
Chris is responsible for OSP's Military and Aerospace group of magazines, which includes PC/104 & Small Form Factors, VMEbus Systems, Military Embedded Systems, and the all-electronic publication DSP-FPGA.com.

PCI Express® Technology: Designing for High Performance Bridging (Chinese) Access the archived webcast here

Overview: Join Tundra Semiconductor for an introduction to PCI Express® and in-depth discussion on applications and performance considerations that designers need to be aware of when bridging between PCI Express and PCI/X. Tundra will explore how latency and throughput affect PCI Express transactions and system behavior. Benchmarking and performance data examples, generated from Tundra’s PCI Express Bridges, will be provided. Join us to learn how best to design boards and systems for reliable, high performance PCI Express.
