PRO-2900

PCI/PCI-X to ePMC/XMC Carrier Board

Overview

The PRO-2900 is a PCI/PCI-X-based carrier card with dual Enhanced PMC (ePMC)/XMC sites. This unique carrier card hosts up to 2 XMC processing & I/O modules in a PCI/PCI-X PC. The PRO-2900 can be used within Spectrum’s SDR-2000 family to interface to Spectrum I/O, FPGA, and DSP processing engines as well as industry standard PMC/XMC mezzanine cards.

The mezzanine card interface is supported for up to two PMC, ePMC or XMC modules per PRO-2900 carrier card. Using multiple independent communication fabrics and GPIO ports interconnecting the mezzanine sites, numerous combinations of FPGA, DSP and GPP signal processing devices can be utilized to support a wide range of software defined radio (SDR) applications.
