DAMC-FMC20
Board Description
The DAMC-FMC20 is designed as a double width mid-size MTCA.4 FMC carrier. This carrier board is a general-purpose solution with the ability to host two FPGA Mezzanine Cards (FMC), one with High Pin Count (HPC) and one with Low Pin Count (LPC).
The DAMC-FMC20 is a cost-efficient FPGA mezzanine card (FMC) carrier designed according to MTCA.4 and equipped with two Spartan-6 FPGAs. One FPGA allows serial high- speed communication (PCIe, RTM, Backplane, FMCs) while the other one allows implementing large signal processing algorithms. In addition to providing one PCIe link AMC.1 type 1 compliant, the DAMC-FMC20 is reconfigurable over PCIe and MMC.
Fast links to both FMC slots (the board supports one serial GTP link for the HPC FMC and up to two serial communication links for the LPC FMC) allow to install high performance and high density FPGA Mezzanine Cards – e.g. fast and/or high resolution digitizers or fast links. A micro USB port is accessible from the front of the board for debugging purposes while an extra 12V power connector for high current FMC applications is also present on the board. Backplane is reached via the AMC ports 12-15 that are connected via a dedicated cross-point switch directly to the FPGA exploiting GTP links (that also allow the communication to the LPC FMC from this cross point).
