ePMC-8120
Xilinx Virtex-II based Processing Engine

The ePMC-8120 is intended for use as a front-end signal processing engine, or a general-purpose fixed-point or floating-point co-processor. The ePMC-8120 is a single-width ePMC module, 32-bit/33 MHz PCI device capable of operating in a master or slave mode, with PCI burst DMA capability. The ePMC-8120 is equipped with a modular front panel to support a variety of I/O formats. It incorporates a single Xilinx Virtex-II XC2V6000 FPGA for processing, as well as multiple output paths. A high-speed interface to the carrier board can be established via the Solano Communication ICs. The module features two Double Data Rate (DDR) SDRAM banks with 512 MB total capacity.

The ePMC standard adds the power of the Solano Communications IC to the PCI bus of the PMC standard. The addition of these high-speed communication channels enables eight links at 213 MB/s full-duplex of data throughput each, directly from the mezzanine to the processing engine.
