PC820 UltraScale PCIe Card
PCIe Gen3 with 1x FMC+ Expansion Site
The PC820 is a high-performance, PCI
Express card with advanced DSP capabilities
and multiple I/O options. It supports one
FMC+ VITA 57.4-compliant HSPC FPGA
Mezzanine Card (FMC) that is closely coupled
to the Virtex or Kintex UltraScale FPGA
and a DDR4-2133 SDRAM SO-DIMM. The
PC820’s PCIe Gen3 interface can support up
to eight lanes. The card features a singlelane
SFP+ module as a serial peripheral interface.
An eight-lane 14 Gbps FireFly connector isalso available as an optional serial peripheral
interface. The FireFly connection can be madeaccessible either from inside the chassis or,alternatively, from the bezel if the SPF+ cageis removed.
The PC820 is an excellent choice for highperformance applications that requirelarge-band signal digitization or generation
ANSI/VITA 47

through the use of accelerated frequency
domain algorithms.
FMC Options
The PC820 offers one high pin count (HPC)
FMC+ site connected to the FPGA. The FMC
site is located on the front side of the board
and remains within the envelope of the singleslot PCIe card when populated.

FEATURES:• Virtex UltraScale (XCVU080,XCVU095, XCVU125) orKintex UltraScale (XCKU085,XCKU095, XCKU115)• PCIe Gen3 x8• 1x FMC+ Site – High Serial Pin
Count (HSPC)

For more information about the Abaco
Systems FMCs that can be used on thePC820, please visit www.abaco.com. We offer
a wide range of ADC, DAC and DSP modules.

• DDR4-2133 SDRAM SO-DIMM

Standalone Operation
For a lab test environment or custom system,
the PC820 can be run in a standalone mode
where power is supplied through an industry
standard power connector.
