PanaTeQ 2024
PanaTeQ’s VPX3-ZU1B is a 3U OpenVPX module based on the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device from Xilinx.
The Zynq UltraScale+ integrates a Quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 based Application Processing Unit (APU), a Dual-core ARM Cortex-R5 based Real-Time Processing Unit
(RPU), a ARM Mali based Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) and an UltraScale+ Programmable Logic (PL) in a single device.
It also includes on-chip memory, external memory interfaces, and a rich set of peripheral connectivity interfaces.
The board can be equipped with a ZU6EG/ZU9EG/ZU15EG FFVC900 device tightly coupled up to 8GB of 64-bit with 8-bit ECC of DDR4-2400 Processing Memory.
Up to 2GB 16-bit of DDR4-2400 is available as the Programmable Logic Memory, allowing data streaming applications such as video CODEC and signal processing.
For ZU4EV/ZU5EV/ZU7EV devices, please refer to the VPX3-ZU2
For frond-end I/O interface, an on-board FMC site compliant to the Vita 57.1 HPC standard with 90 SE I/O (45 Diff Pairs) and up to 10 MGT, allowing a wide range of
applications such as Software Defined Radio, EW/ISR Systems, Video Camera Processing, Advanced Multi-Axes Motors controller, Multi-Gig Ethernet communications,
LIDAR/RADAR/SONAR.
The board can act as Single Board Computer in the VPX system due to its on-board PCIe Gen2 Switch. When VPX3-ZU1 is System Controller, it can manage up to 8x 3U
OpenVPX slots with a PCIe x1 Gen2 link per slots. There is no need to add any SBC in the VPX system, improving Size, Weight, Power and Cost (SWaP-C)
A large number of Zynq Ultrascale+ peripherals are available on VPX backplane :
2x ETH 1000B-X/SGMII, 2x ETH 1000B-T, 4x USB 2.0, 1x SATA 3.1, 2x CAN-2.0B, 2x RS-232/422/485, 4x MGT , 20x GPIO, Video Out Display Port 1.2.
A Rear IO Transition Module for the VPX3-ZU1B is available, the RTM-ZU1-A.
Software Defined Radio (SDR) applications are enabled with PanaTeQ’s FMC-ZU1RF-A.
Air cooled PanaTeQ System Development Kit VPX3-ZU1B-PSDK-A is also available for the developers.
