DATASHEETPC720 Kintex™-7 PCIe Card
PCI Express 8 lanes Gen2 with two FMC sites
FEATURES:• Kintex-7 160T, 325T, 410T
• PCIe Gen2 x8/4-lane, PCIe
Gen3 x4 (softcore)• 1GB DDR3 SDRAM• 1x FMC HPC available on front
panel (VITA 57.1)• 1x FMC LPC or 4-channel SFP
FMC (FMC404) available on
front panel on the secondaryside (VITA 57.1)• Micro SD Flash (32GB)

The PC720 is a high-performance, half-size
PCI Express card with advanced DigitalSignal Processing (DSP) capabilities andmultiple I/O options. The PC720 offers
various direct on-board interface options (2xFMC sites) that are closely coupled to theKintex-7 and 1GB of DDR3 SDRAM. With on
board fans, available to dissipate heat fromthe FMC sites and the Kintex-7, this productremains cool in any enclosure.
It is an excellent choice for high performance
applications that require large bandsignals digitization or generation throughthe use of accelerated frequencydomain
algorithms or video applications that arebandwidth hungry.
FPGA Mezzanine Card Options
The PC720 offers two FMC sites connectedto the Kintex-7 FPGA. The first FMC site(HPC) is located on the primary side ofthe board and when populated it remains
within the envelope of a single slot half size
PCIe card. Optionally a second FMC site
ANSI/VITA 47(LPC) is made available on the back side of
the PC720 and the FMC I/Os occupy thefront panel of the PCIe adjacent slot. The
secondary FMC site can also accommodate
an FMC404 with four SFP for fast
optical communication.
When mounting a high-performance FMC
on the primary side and the FMC404 on thesecondary side a complete data acquisition,signal processing, and optical platform ismade available to designers for the mostdemanding applications.
For more information about the Abaco
Systems FMCs that can be used on thePC720, please visit the FMC portal. We
offer a wide range of ADC, DAC andDSP modules.
Standalone operation
For a lab test environment or custom system
the PC720 can be run in a standalone mode.
In this set-up the power is supplied throughthe industry standard PCIe power connector.
