V1163 12-Port Rugged PCIe ASoC Card

V1163 12-Port Rugged PCIe ASoC Card Overview

The V1163 is a powerful heterogeneous computing PCIe card with high bandwidth IO featuring the Xilinx® Versal® Adaptive System-on-Chip (ASoC) and rugged optical and electrical IO. The V1163 provides options for Versal® Prime or Versal® AI Core part selection. In a single mezzanine card, the V1163 provides 100G optical interfaces, FPGA fabric, ARM processor cores, and optional AI engines. The V1163 is designed for applications requiring any combination of the following: high speed optical/electrical interfaces, FPGA processing resources, ARM processing cores, and AI engines. Use cases include sensor interface design, digital signal processing, video processing, application co-processing, and multi-level secure networking. Radar, SIGINT, video, storage, medical imaging, and embedded communications systems all have the ability to benefit from the V1163 module.

The V1163 provides electrical and optical IO options supporting 10/25/40/50/100Gbs Ethernet. By leveraging the Versal® hard silicon Ethernet interfaces, PCIe controllers, DMA engines, and associated software drivers Xilinx® has enabled a robust ecosystem for high-bandwidth Ethernet performance. In addition to the Ethernet interfaces described, the FPGA fabric provided within the ASoC part is capable of hosting New Wave Design IP cores for Fibre Channel, ARINC-818, sFPDP, Aurora, and others. This makes the V1163 an ideal hardware platform for mixed interface protocol needs or protocol bridging applications.

The V1163 can turn a single board computer into a sensor interface and heterogeneous computing solution. The V1163 mounted on a x86 based single board computer will provide 100G optical interfaces, FPGA fabric, ARM processor cores, and AI Engines all in a single slot solution.  V1163 is also available from New Wave Design in a 3U VPX, PXIe or XMC form factor if desired.
