TECHWAY has announced new PCIe SoC platforms with an FMC+ site, called PFP-ZU+, and based on Xilinx MPSoC devices. TECHWAY has 12+ years of development experience in Xilinx FPGA-based PCIe platforms with FMC/FMC+ interfaces.

The platforms are 100% compliant with the FMC+ standard, PFP-ZU+ fit all VITA 57.1 and VITA 57.4 mezzanine cards. Thanks to this compliance, PFP-ZU+ can serve any protocols and interfaces. As a multi-purpose board, PFP-ZU+ is a ‘swiss-knife’ for real-time applications.

The boards are a perfect fit for system integrators who are looking for reducing development time thanks to ready-to-integrate boards.

The PFP-ZU+’s versatility comes from useful features including a fully FMC+ site, DDR4 and RLDRAM2 memories, multiple boot options, etc. Users can access multiple interfaces (Ethernet, Display Port, USB) from the ARM-based Processing System, allowing to easily design stand-alone equipment without PC host.

A new FireFly module, available in option, allows high-speed optical communication. This module provides a direct and easy access to data.

PFP-ZU+ is a good match between real-time multi-core ARM processors and high-performance UltraScale+ programmable logic. PFP-ZU+ features the Xilinx ZU7CG or ZU11EG devices to optimise performance/price ratio for high-end applications.

PFP-ZU+ can be easily used in a standard PC environment with full development kit available for both Windows and Linux or in your own enclosure as a stand-alone equipment.
