Description

The MM-1500 combines the industrys most powerful System-on-Chip, CoSine, with the application optimized architecture of an Othello VME carrier.

Mezzanine Sites

Mezzanine sites on the MM-1500 can support either PMCs or XMCs. Configured for PMC support, each PCI bus can operate in 32-bit or 64-bit PCI 2.3 mode at up to 66MHz or in 64-bit PCI-X mode at up to 133MHz. Configured for XMCs, the sites can support the Aurora protocol with four MGTs or Serial RapidIO x4.

Xilinx Virtex-4 SX55 and DSP Slices

The Virtex-4 SX55 is the largest device available in the SX family and offers the most DSP slices of any Xilinx FPGA. DSP slices are unique to the Virtex-4 FX, SX, and LX platforms. In the Virtex-II Pro and other FPGA families, only multipliers are offered thereby requiring all additions, subtractions, etc. to be implemented in logic.

CoSine Compute Nodes

The MM-1500 contains two independent CoSine Compute Nodes (CCNs). A single CCN is comprised of a CoSine Primary Device (Virtex-II Pro 2VP100), a CoSine Companion Device (Virtex-4 SX55) see CoSine and CoSine Companion Device Configurations and the following:

Two embedded PowerPC 405GP processors

One multi-ported primary DDR array, up to 1GB, for seamless bus translation between the mezzanine port and crossbar or backplane port

Two dedicated 128MB DDR arrays local to each PowerPC processor

Four independent 9MB QDR II SRAM arrays local to the SX55 for FPGA processing operations
