DK-K7-CONN-G

The DK-K7-CONN-G from Xilinx is a Kintex®-7 FPGA connectivity kit. This is a 20Gb/s platform for high bandwidth and high performance applications containing all the necessary hardware, tools and IP to power quickly through user evaluation and development of connectivity systems. This includes a 20Gb/s targeted reference design featuring PCI Express®, a DMA IP core from Northwest Logic, 10GBase-R, AXI and a Virtual FIFO memory controller interfacing to an external DDR3 memory. To control and monitor this design the board includes a connectivity GUI built on Fedora Live OS which includes all the software drivers. Additionally, this board contains the relevant SFP+ FMC daughter card, cable and transceiver modules needed to utilize this design. It implement video display applications with HDMI out expand I/O with the FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) interface.

• Optimized for quickly prototyping high performance serial transceiver application via Kintex®-7 FPGA
• Demonstrates an featuring 10GBase-R interfacing to external DDR3 memory
• Advanced memory interface with 1GB DDR3 SODIM memory
• Enabling serial connectivity with PCIe Gen2x4, SFP+ and SMA pairs, UART, IIC
• Supports embedded processing with MicroBlaze, soft 32bit RISC
• Develop networking applications with 10-100-1000Mbps Ethernet (GMII, RGMII and SGMII​)
