VPX, OpenVPX and SOSA-aligned FPGA / FMC Carrier Boards

A VPX FPGA FMC carrier board is a rugged plug-in board for a VPX chassis that combines:

an FPGA for real-time processing, and

one or more FMC or FMC+ connectors for attaching specialized I/O mezzanine cards.

The VPX interface connects the board to the chassis backplane, while the FMC module provides application-specific functions such as:

high-speed ADC or DAC conversion, RF input and output, camera or video interfaces, digital I/O, optical or high-speed networking, timing and synchronization

Compared with a MicroTCA FPGA FMC carrier, the main difference is the system architecture. A VPX carrier uses the VPX backplane and is often designed for rugged environments, with features such as conduction cooling, high resistance to shock and vibration, and extended-temperature operation.

Our portfolio contains AMD (Xilinx) FPGA / FMC carrier boards in 3U and 6U, air-cooled and conduction cooled and associated FMC (VITA 57) modules.

Below you can find a selection of available FPGA / FMC carrier boards.
