AMD Virtex UltraScale+ FPGA Development Board ADK-VU13G
AMD Virtex UltraScale+ FPGA Development Board ADK-VU13G
The ADK-VU13G is a high-end FPGA development and verification platform built around the AMD Virtex UltraScale+ XCVU13P FPGA (XCVU13P-2FHGB2104I), designed for the most demanding data processing, high-speed interconnect and compute acceleration challenges, and an ideal platform for researchers, algorithm engineers and system architects carrying out prototyping and product development. It combines 3,780K logic cells, 12,288 DSP slices delivering 38.3 TOP/s of peak INT8 performance, 76 GTY transceivers at 28.21 Gbps, 20GB of DDR4 memory and 256MB of QSPI flash with two 200G QSFP-DD and seven 100G QSFP28 optical ports (1.1 Tbps of total network bandwidth), FMC+ and FMC HPC expansion and PCIe Gen3 x16. Its enhanced DSP core is optimised for fixed- and floating-point computation including INT8, meeting the needs of AI inference and compute-intensive applications such as network systems above 1 Tb/s, machine learning, compute acceleration, test and measurement, and radar and early-warning systems. Application areas: compute acceleration, 5G base stations, wired communications, network acceleration, test and measurement, machine learning and AI, radar, and emulation and prototyping.
