The PEX7-COP is a flexible FPGA co-processor card that integrates a Kintex-7 FPGA computing core with an industry-standard FMC I/O module on a three-quarter-length PCI Express desktop or server card.
The FPGA computing core features the Xilinx Kintex-7 FPGA family and is offered in two densities, K325 or K410. The K410 FPGA provides over 2000 DSP MAC elements operating at up to 500 MHz. The FPGA core has a 2048 MB DDR3 DRAM bank attached.
For system communications, the PEX7-COP utilizes a PCI Express x8 Gen2 port capable of up to 3.2 GB/s sustained operation with 4 GB/s burst rate.
