VPX Ecosystem

Active

This single board computer is ideal for low power applications. Its main device is a Smartfusion2 from Microsemi, a System on Chip (SOC) that supports a Microcontroller subsystem (including an M3 microcontroller, DDR controller and other peripherals) as well as FPGA fabric in the same device. The inclusion of both a hard microcontroller subsystem as well as a soft FPGA fabric enables great flexibility an essential part of Novo Space's DNA. These FPGA fabric allows software defined architectures and IOs, allowing the support of multiple options for FPGA Mezzanine Cards (FMCs) as well as IO to the backplane. This is the ideal platform for implementing machine learning using TensorFlow and PyTorch directly on FPGA fabric without modification while keeping a low power consumption.

ECOSYSTEM

We provide a suite of IP cores to achieve the systems full potential while allowing faster developing cycles. FMC daughterboards offer flexibility to add mission specific hardware to the system. Constraining the engineering to the daughter card minimizes effort, time, and risk.

Application-specific FMC boards include:

Solid-State Memory
High-performance ADC or DAC
High-throughput interfaces like Camera Link® and SpaceWire.
Low-speed control interfaces like MIL-STD-1553-B, UART, CAN, and more.
Ad-hoc applicationspecific cards

Check our FMC daughter cards offering for more information.

We also provide a dev kit to accelerate software development on our boards and heatsinks and shielding.
