VadaTech has announced the AMC595, an Advanced Mezzanine Card or AdvancedMC (AMC) based on the Xilinx Virtex UltraScale XCVU440 FPGA, arguably the highest performance FPGA available today. Aimed at compute-intensive applications such as large scale ASIC prototyping and emulation, the AMC595 builds on VadaTech’s successful portfolio of products based on Xilinx UltraScale FPGAs.

VadaTech has announced an exclusive agreement to integrate Seven Solutions’ White Rabbit technology into its MicroTCA (µTCA) products. White Rabbit is an Ethernet extension protocol that provides sub-nanosecond accuracy synchronisation, originally developed by the high energy physics community but now being adopted by companies developing military, aerospace, communications and industrial IoT applications.

VadaTech has announced that its latest processor AdvancedMC (PrAMC), the AMC754, is available with either the new 8-core Intel Xeon processor D-1548 or 4-core Intel Xeon processor D-1520 and provides a migration path to next-gen 16-core processors expected to be available end of Q1 2016. The Intel Xeon processor D product family, based on the Intel DE microarchitecture, brings the performance of Intel Xeon processors into a dense, low power syste...

The latest two Virtex-7 FPGA carriers, from VadaTech, which come in the AMC format have been annouced. The carriers utilise the 690T device providing over 693,000 logic cells and 3600 DSP slices. The AMC527 has three banks of 114Mb QDR-II memory and the AMC516 has banks of 64- and 16-bit DDR3 memory and an on-board P2040 PowerPC.

An FMC (FPGA Mezzanine Card) per VITA 57 for high-speed networking has been released by VadaTech. Alongside quad SFP/SFP+ transceivers for 10GbE in copper or fibre formats, the FMC109 features four re-timers, which provide tuning for the Tx and Rx signals.
