The VPX550 is a 6U VPX board with Kintex UltraScale™ FPGA and a COM Express module.
The on-board FPGA is a Kintex UltraScale™ with 8 GB of DDR-4 Memory. The FPGA provides JTAG, USB (USB to RS-232) and RS-232 to the front panel with status LEDs.
The FPGA provide extensive I/O to the rear:
1x GbE as 1000Base-TX and 2x SERDES on P1
16x SERDES on P2
152 signals routed through P3, P4, P5 and P6
The VPX550 has the option for a COM Express Type-6. The COM Express provides dual USB 3.0, HDMI, GbE (as 1000Base-TX), USB3.0 and status LEDs to the front panel. The front panel has a CFAST socket for removable storage which is routed to the Com-Express Module.
The COM Express module connects to the FPGA via PCIe Gen3 x4.
The health management is based on the VITA 46.11.
The unit is available in a range of temperature and shock/vib specifications per ANSI/VITA 47, up to V3 and OS2.
