OVERVIEW
The Quad-TMS320C6416/Dual-VIRTEX-II-based
SignalMaster
TM
is one of the most flexible CompactPCI
(or Stand-alone) 'C6x
TM
-based architecture.This new
member of the SignalMaster
TM
family consists of two clusters
containing two TMS320C6416
TM
DSP and a Virtex-II® FPGA.
Each cluster can deliver up to 216000 MIPS of DSP
processing power and up to 8 Million Gates - therefore,
giving a total of 32 000 MIPS of DSP power and
16 Million Gates.
As a CompactPCI board, the Quad-TMS320C6416/Dual-
VIRTEX-II-based SignalMaster can be installed in a cPCI
card-cage industrial computer, in single or multi-DSP card
configurations. The product is also available as a stand-alone
unit, packaged in a 3U rack-mountable housing, including
power supply and additional on-board features such as
PC/104 expansion sites,586-class Elan microprocessor,
100 Mbps Ethernet, and more.As all SignalMaster platforms,
this system provides expansion capabilities that allow easy
customization of the hardware to satisfy your application's
needs for A/D and D/A conversions, digital I/Os, etc.
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT TOOLS

Combined with its software tools, the solution allows quick
and easy system-level design and implementation of signal
processing applications relying on mixed FPGA/DSP-based
hardware architectures. Building upon Simulink, Real-Time
Workshop and Embedded target from The MathWorks,
along with the System Generator for DSP tool from Xilinx,
the overall solutions allow users to quickly develop a
functional prototype of their application, before enabling
hassle-free and efficient paths to optimizing the code and
final hardware.This proven design flow dramatically reduces
the learning curve, cost of ownership and development risk
for companies implementing these designs.
