Agilent Technologies introduced the U5340A FPGA development kit to enable customers to deploy advanced real-time signal processing into the FPGAs on-board Agilent high-speed digitisers.
Powered by a custom Mentor Graphics design engine, the kit leverages the full density and speed of the FPGA while ensuring the digitiser’s multi-gigasample-per-second performance.
The FPGA development kit enables original equipment manufacturers and researchers to easily design in high-speed signal acquisition and analysis. This software tool can help companies and research institutions protect their intellectual property and shorten time-to-market as they develop technologies for high-end applications such as medical imaging, environmental monitoring, time-of-flight spectroscopy and radar.
The custom Mentor Graphics design engine – including HDL Author, ModelSim PE and Precision Synthesis – is embedded in the development kit to support the design, synthesis, simulation and validation of signal-processing algorithms. Place-and-route and bitfile generation engines are included, also providing debugging capabilities.
To help users focus on creating solutions, the kit also includes a library of building blocks, from basic gates to dual-port RAM memories; a set of IP cores; and ready-to-use scripts that handle all aspects of the automated build flow. A full-speed design example and companion software ensure efficient system integration.
