Overview

No longer available for new projects

Quadia is a quad-DSP, dual FPGA, dual PMC sites, compactPCI board with an advanced architecture that provides the best inter-processor connectivity and access to the finest external interfaces available today, to deliver blazing performance and extreme flexibility for advanced signal capture and realtime processing applications.

The board features four C6416 DSPs split in two independent clusters each hosting a PMC site and one large FPGA for end-user code, a central FPGA routing interprocessor communication, end-user FPGA communication, external port serial I/O for PCI-Express or other private link, global memory and PCI interface. Quadia is an ideal platform for integrating high performance DSP and I/O into advanced signal processing, data acquisition and real-time applications such as telecom, RADAR, SONAR and wireless communications.

Top-level performance and amazing flexibility and ease-of-use are obtained through an innovative integration of the most advanced devices, large independent logic chips exclusively for enduser, and the best utilization of today's high-speed communication protocols.
