The RTG006 is
a self contained system combining FPGA hardware and a
programmable embedded PowerPC. It also offers 128Mbytes of
DDR SDRAM with a 1.6Gbytes total memory bandwidth. VHDL
support is included for connecting this DDR memory to the
Embedded PowerPC processor AND your VHDL design at the same
time. 6Mbytes of FLASH memory is connected to the FPGA -
intended for PowerPC code storage.
The system can be used stand alone or connected to a PC via
the USB 2.0 connection.The FPGA can be programmed with your
own design, allowing whatever function you need, and
connectivity to the embedded PowerPC processor. This allows
you to develop an embedded design that uses FPGA hardware
and PowerPC processor in the correct mix for your particular
needs.
FPGA
-
Xilinx XC4VFX12, Virtex-II Pro FPGA logic with PowerPC
hard core
-
With no heatsink fitted (standard) the FPGA can
dissipate 2.4 Watts at 50deg C ambient temperature.
-
The power circuits are capable of delivering more than
this, so a heatsink may be required for your design.
-
If that is the case a larger 5V Power Supply Unit may
also be necessary
Memory
Host Bus
USB 2.0 capable of up to 50Mbytes/second
dependent on host PC and USB configuration.
Maximum Dimensions:
160mm x 110mm x 21mm.
Power requirements
-
5V Max: 1.55A plus the power taken by the FPGA. Typ:
1.15A plus FPGA
-
The Mains Power Supply Unit included can supply up to
4A, which is enough to power an FPGA design that is less
than the 2.4W bare package maximum dissipation.
