– Provides ultrahigh-speed evaluations platforms for connectivity systems and high-bandwidth wired applications –

YOKOHAMA, Japan — (BUSINESS WIRE) — November 19, 2013 — Tokyo Electron Device Limited (TED) has announced the launch of the new Virtex-7 FPGA evaluation platform; TB-7VX-690T/-980T/-1140T-PCIEXP (TB-7VX-xxxT-PCIEXP, hereinafter) which supports large-scale PCI Express Gen3.

The TB-7VX-xxxT-PCIEXP series, sold under the TED original products brand name “inrevium,” is a test platform suitable for next-generation high-performance wired communication applications, prototyping of large-scale SoCs, and high-speed data processing applications such as high-performance computing. There are now three models available now that accommodate three different FPGA logic sizes.

The TB-7VX-xxxT-PCIEXP series comes with a Virtex-7 XT FPGA device, which offers the industry’s best processing performance with the lowest power consumption, as well as a high-speed transceiver, DSP and BRAM. The series also offers an ultra-high bandwidth and high-speed data transfer with x8-lane PCI Express Gen3 (using FPGA integrated hardware block for PCI Express) and high-speed memory interface with two channels of 1,600 Mbps DDR3 SDRAM SO-DIMM.

The physical length of a signal line is becomes shorter as the data communication speed increases. Connecting the optional optical fiber solution TB-FMCH-OPT10 FMC card with optical cable interface to TB-7VX-xxxT-PCIEXP enables 10ch of 10G optical modules to be mounted on each FPGA mezzanine card (FMC) connector. This achieves an optical interface configuration of up to 400Gbps.

The TB-7VX-xxxT-PCIEXP can also be configured with TED’s FMC cards and the user’s custom interfaces. It allows combinations with various interfaces and interface upgrades in the future quickly and easily.

In addition, for reference designs, high-speed DDR3 SDRAM SO-DIMM interface design and PCI Express DMA design come with TB-7VX-xxxT-PCIEXP. These reference designs enable fast evaluation and development for various memory interfaces that need to accommodate significantly increased image and data communication and higher data transfer speeds.

TED is a premium member of the Xilinx Alliance Program and is certified by Xilinx as having top-of-the-line technologies. TED has passed on-site audits that included 320 Xilinx screenings, such as business processes, technologies, product qualities and support abilities. TED provides system level solutions for each customer requirement based on the solid technologies TED has acquired through its long time experience of development. The TB-7VX-xxxT-PCIEXP accommodates minimum-, semi- and full-customized boards, and supports the improvements in flexibility for designing, development, high-volume production and rapid launching of products with high added-value.
