New from Connect Tech, the FreeForm/104 embedded module enables users to take full advantage of an onboard FPGA for reconfigurable computing along with digital I/O functionality. Based on Xilinx's Spartan 3E FPGA, FreeForm/104 is fully programmable. Unlike its predecessors, FreeForm/104 offers users full, in-system reconfigurability, allowing designs to be changed at run time.
The FreeForm/104's onboard FPGA is ideal for high speed, compute-intensive, reconfigurable applications.
As the Spartan 3E is a high-capacity high-speed FPGA, it offers flexibility for a wide range of designs.
The FreeForm/104 can be used in many design applications including generating, measuring, monitoring and controlling digital inputs or values.
The digital I/O is 8255 compatible allowing 96 digital I/O or 48 Opto-22 compatible digital I/Os to be used.
Highly adaptable, every pin on the FreeForm/104 card is uniquely configurable.
A variety of counting and timing functions are implemented by adding six counter/timers to FreeForm/104's design benefiting the user with greater precision in timing applications.
The FreeForm/104 offers off-the-shelf flexibility, a high speed processing core, less than 25 ns transfer function, within a rugged design making it ideal for real-time applications including; DSP, software-defined radio, aerospace, defence systems, computer hardware emulation, production or laboratory testing and industrial process monitor and control.
