Overview
Multiport FMC is an expansion board that provides multiple Ethernet, CAN-FD and LIN hardware interfaces to any FPGA based platform that is compatible with FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC). FMC is an ANSI/VITA 57.1 standard that defines I/O for mezzanine modules.
Multiport FMC is an excellent choice for customers that require multiple Ethernet / CAN-FD / LIN interfaces in a FPGA based platform, typically for development and testing purposes. It is specifically well fitted for automotive applications, as it provides all the typical interfaces expected in this context.
It requires High Pin Count (HPC) FMC sizes are required in order to make use of the 100% of the board interfaces. Some of the compatible and tested tested, (but not limited to) development platforms are:
- AMD/Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC ZCU102 Evaluation Kit
- AMD/Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC ZCU106 Evaluation Kit
Key Features
- Multiple PHY’s in a Single Board
High added value for any use case that requires high density communication interfaces in a single platform. There is no other solution like this in the market.
- Compatible With SOC-E Ethernet Networking IP Cores
Enables a fast implementation of multiple port (18x) Ethernet switches. Time-Sensitive Networking is also compatible with this platform.
- Modular Design
The board (PCB) can be splitted into 2x smaller FMC boards, each one using 1x FMC (HPC) port and featuring half of the total interfaces (9x Ethernet, 4x CAN-FD and 4x LIN ports).
