"The XtremeDSP Development Kit with its pre-engineered hardware enables DSP designers to focus their efforts on sophisticated algorithm development. By collaborating with a proven DSP system specialist like Nallatech, we are able to deliver this DSP solution to our customers more quickly thereby accelerating DSP solutions to market," said David Squires, director of the Xilinx DSP Center of Excellence. "With the addition of this new development kit, customers can now choose from over 30 DSP boards using Xilinx FPGAs."
About the DSP Development Kit
The hardware development platform includes dual 14-bit Digital to Analog Converters (DACs) operating at up to 160 Mega-samples/sec (MSPS) combined with dual 14-bit Analog to Digital Converters (ADCs) operating at 65MSPS, demonstrating the high performance capability of Xilinx FPGA DSP solutions. The interface to the hardware platform is provided through either a PCI or USB connection, providing engineers with flexibility in choosing interfaces. With the purchase of the XtremeDSP Development Kit, customers are also provided with a single device edition of Nallatech?s FUSE software.
"This plug' n' play FUSE software allows for flexible and scaleable control and configuration of programmable systems, allowing rapid development of software applications for FPGA-based systems," said Dr. Malachy Devlin, senior vice president and CTO at Nallatech.
