Overview
Quixote is a 64-bit cPCI 6U board for
advanced signal capture, generation and co-processing. It combines
one C6416 DSP with a two- or six-
million-gate Xilinx
Virtex-II FPGA, utilizing the best of both worlds in signal
processing technology to provide extreme processing flexibility and
efficiency and deliver unmatched performance.
Dual 105MHz analog input(ADC) / output (DAC)
integrate signal capture and waveform generation right on the FPGA
external interface. One PMC site facilitates integration of off-the
shelf or custom PMC mezzanine boards. The
ADC
used is the AD6645 from Analog Devices. The
DAC
used is the AD9764 from Analog Devices
Finally a PCI-to-StarFabric bridge offers
two 2.5Gbps ports to the new PICMG2.17 switched interconnect
backplane, for up to 625MBytes/sec board-to-board or
chassis-to-chassis communication.
Quixote’s state-of-the-art architecture provides an unparalleled
level of integration on a user-friendly platform that can quickly be
deployed in the most advanced systems in the fields of Software
Defined Radios (SDR), Wireless IP development, Test Equipment,
Signal Intelligence, High-Speed Physics and other emerging fields.
PMC/XMC Modules are available to provide
analogue and digital IO.
