Benefits of Power Signal Processing & General-Purpose Processing
The VPU is a VPX form factor (VITA 46), Kintex UltraScale XCKU060 FPGA processor board designed to meet the needs of challenging, embedded high-performance digital signal processing applications at a competitive price point. In addition to the VPUs powerful FPGA processing capability, the incorporation of the ARM Cortex A7 allows system engineers to receive the benefits of both powerful signal processing and a general-purpose processor on one 3U VPX module.
Whitepaper
3U VPX Digital Receiver
Today’s Department of Defense (DoD) has a sharp focus on reducing embedded systems size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C) across virtually all military and aerospace applications. Now more than ever, SWaP-C technologies such as 3U VPX, demonstrate significant and measureable improvements in areas such as: sensor signal processing, increased mission life, and reduced total cost of system ownership (TCO). The performance, reliability, and modularity of the 3U VPX form factor has contributed to its emergence as the board of choice for new sensor systems and program refresh efforts.
In an era of DoD reduced budgets, size, weight and power reductions in electronics systems are simply not enough. The “C” for cost will need to be every bit as compelling as the technical advantages of moving to a 3U VPX system architecture. To meet this challenge, Delphi Engineering Group, Inc. (DEG) has developed a family of powerful digital receiver products that meet and exceed the DOD’s SWaP-C initiatives. |
