Overview
The IC-INT-VPX6g is a 6U VPX Single Board Computer (SBC) with a dual processing node and an on-board FPGA.This board is the result of Interface Concept’s extensive expertise in the High Performance Embedded Computing (HPEC) field.
Combined with Interface Concept VPX 6U Ethernet switches (ComEth products) and FPGA boards (IC-FEP products), the IC-INT-VPX6g provides integrators with the ideal Digital Signal Processing (DSP) board to build High Performance Computers.
Powered by Intel®’s 14nm Xeon®D processor technology and operating within the umbrella of the OpenVPX standard, the IC-INT-VPX6g is a comprehensive dual-processor design for applications requiring the highest processing capabilities with a controlled power consumption.
Description
The IC-INT-VPX6g’s two computing nodes (A & B) consist of a dual twelve-core Xeon® D-1559 processor or dual eight-core Xeon® D-1539 processor which are equipped with up to 64GB DDR4/node, meaning 128GB DDR4 in total.
The two processors are interconnected via a 4-lane PCIe Gen3 link and a Xilinx Kintex®-7 Core function FPGA, which is itself also connected to the P3/P4 VPX connector via SERDES and Multiple Purpose IOs and Multi-Gigabit Transceivers.
The FPGA can be used to integrate additional functions, among which ARINC818, HDLC or SFPDP which Interface Concept can provide as a separate IP.
The IC-INT-VPX6g also features two on-board high speed 10/40GbE controllers which interface to the P1 connector.
The IC-INT-VPX6g complies with the OpenVPX™ standard and supports the following interfaces on the Data, Control and Expansion planes:
Control Plane:
• 1 * 1000BASE-T interface per node
• 1 * 1000BASE-KX/10GBASE-KR per node
Data Plane:
• 2 * 40GBASE-KR4 or 4 * 10GBASE-KR per node (also supports 2 * 10GBASE-KX4 or 4 * 1000BASE-KX)
Expansion plane:
• 1 * 4-lane PCIe Gen2/3 port (VPX P2 connector) per node
For further customizations, an XMC slot is available and connected to node A via a 4-lane PCIe interface and to node B by a 1-lane PCIe interface.
The IC-INT-VPX6g also provides additional storage and communication features for each processing node such as a scalable SATA NAND SDD, GPIOs, USB and SATA ports.
