Based on Altera’s Stratix II GX FPGA, BittWare’s SF/GX-AMC (SF/GXAM) is a full-size, single wide AdvancedMC that can be attached to AdvancedTCA (Advanced Telecom Compute Architecture) carriers or other cards equipped with AMC bays, and used in MicroTCA systems. The SF/GXAM features four small form-factor pluggable-plus (SFP/SFP+) compact optical transceiver connectors, a high-density Altera Stratix II GX FPGA, BittWare’s ATLANTiS FrameWork, a front panel I/O interface, a control plane interface via BittWare’s FINe Host/Control Bridge, an IPMI system management interface, and a configurable 11x SerDes AMC interface supporting a variety of protocols. It also provides 10/100 Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, two banks of DDR2 SDRAM, and Flash memory for booting the FPGA and FINe.
