High Performance FPGA Signal Processor in a SWaP-C Enclosure
Eletter ProductThe SigPro1 OpenATR box is an OpenVPX™-based signal acquisition system intended for use in signal processing and recording applications such as data acquisition, radar, beamforming, and other high speed signal processing applications.
Based on a Virtex™-6 series FPGA with high performance A/D front end, the system runs on a 2nd generation Intel® Core i7™ processor and includes a two TB storage subsystem with room to expand. For high bandwidth data collection applications, the system can operate in dual channel record and playback mode, with two 16-bit 200 MS/s A/D converters and an 800 MS/s 16-bit D/A converter.
The complete payload is a truly interoperable, multi-vendor OpenVPX platform. The OpenATR is highly configurable, accepting different FPGA cards and firmware. It also runs Pentek's Talon® series data acquisition and recording system architecture and application software.
