Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have long been a cornerstone of our product portfolio, offering our customers significant flexibility and customisation within their designs.

Among the standout players in this domain is the PolarFire FPGA, designed by Microchip Technology. This cutting-edge FPGA boasts a myriad of features that make it a preferred choice for diverse applications.

At the heart of the PolarFire FPGA is its architecture, built on a 28nm process node. This architecture ensures a balance between power efficiency and high performance. One standout feature is the low static power consumption, making it an ideal choice for applications demanding energy efficiency, such as edge.

In tandem with the PolarFire FPGA's impressive features, Microchip Technology introduced an extra layer of security through its SecureCOTS™ technology embedded in the PolarFire SoC. SecureCOTS™ ensures the robust protection of sensitive information in critical applications, making it particularly well-suited for deployment in defense, aerospace, and other mission-critical sectors. The technology incorporates advanced security features such as secure boot, secure key storage, and hardware-enforced separation of critical functions.

Utilising all these benefits, the new XPedite8270 integrates SecureCOTS™ technology with a Microsemi® PolarFire™ System-on-Chip (SoC) FPGA for hosting custom functions to protect data from being modified or observed and provides an ideal solution when stringent security capabilities are required.

The XPedite8270 from Extreme Engineering Solutions (X-ES) is a secure, high-performance, 3U VPX-REDI, single board computer aligned to the Sensor Open System Architecture (SOSA) standard. Based on the 13th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 series (formerly Raptor Lake-P) line of processors, the XPedite8270 is an ideal choice for applications requiring maximum data and information protection along with high performance and power savings.

The XPedite8270 provides fast and efficient I/O with one 40GBASE-KR4, two 10GBASE-KR, and one 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet ports. It supports 64 GB of LPDDR5 ECC SDRAM in addition to numerous I/O ports, including USB 2.0, PCI Express, RS-232 or RS-422/485 serial, and DisplayPort video through the backplane connectors. The board also provides additional expansion capabilities by including an integrated XMC site which includes a x4 PCI Express connection to the Intel® Core™ i7 processor and X12d, X16d, and X64s I/O mapped directly to the VPX backplane connectors.

For ease of development Wind River VxWorks and X-ES Enterprise Linux (XEL) Board Support Packages (BSPs) are available.

We know this module is going tick a lot of boxes for a lot of projects. Find out more by speaking to one of our knowledgeable team or drop them an email with your requirements.
