DSP-8684 |
Full-Length PCI Express Card with TI 66AK2H12 and TMS320C6678 DSPs |
The DSP-8684 integrates Texas Instruments one 66AK2H12 and three TMS320C6678 multicore processors based on KeyStone architecture, and a Xilinx Artix-7 XC7A200T FPGA device to provide the highest computing performance and flexibility in a full-length PCIe form factor for supporting a wide range of applications. The built-in 32 TI C66x DSP cores and 4 ARM Cortex-A15 cores offer unrivalled processing capabilities for data and control plane processing while the reprogrammable Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA device adds flexibility to the design by allowing the inclusion of customized hardware functions. Video acquisition is achieved through SDI-3G input/output and HDMI input ports facilitating connectivity to external devices for video processing. A unique standalone operation mode enables the DSP-8684 to be operated as an autonomous embedded system without the involvement of an additional host processor card or motherboard, allowing highly cost effective deployment. An innovative and unique, dedicated board-to-board interconnect offers the possibility of synchronizing multiple DSP-8684 cards over dedicated high-speed serial interfaces. All these unprecedented features make the DSP-8684 ideal for new video standards (such as HEVC/H.265) in broadcasting, machine vision, medical imaging, cloud computing, and mission critical applications among others.
