XMCGA8 is the eighth generation of graphics mezzanine card designed to support the needs of the rugged marketplace, bringing modern graphics performance to demanding 2D and 3D applications.
The XMC form factor allows for high speed PCI Express® connections to single board computers in the system. TheXMCGA8 supports the 8-lane PCI Express implementation, providing the maximum available communication bandwidth to a single board computer such as Abaco Systems’ SBC314, PPC10A and XVR16.
The GPU is capable of PCI Express Gen 2 speeds, and will automatically adapt to the speed of the host board. The PCI Express link will also automatically adapt to the active number of lanes available, and will work with single board computers in 8- and 4-lane configurations.
VxWorks®, VxWorks 653, Windows®, and Linux® drivers are available for the XMCGA8. XMCGA8 is designed to support a number of connector options, which are defined at build time:
• XMC I/O – the XMC I/O connector (P16) allows optimal routing of signals on host boards which support this connector. Signal pairs are preserved for the high speed digital connections (DVI) ensuring the best possible signal integrity.
• Front I/O – for air-cooled (L1-L3) boards, signals can be brought out through the front panel, easing the task of cabling in deployed systems or in lab development boards. The VHDCI connector supports both channels with both DVI and VGA.
An adapter cable is available from Abaco to split the signals out onto two DVI-I connectors.
