EK-K7-KC705-G

The EK-K7-KC705-G from Xilinx is a Kintex™-7 FPGA KC705 evaluation kit a full featured power efficient FPGA design platform. It is a versatile, high performance base platform shortens time to market for 7 series designs. The highly flexible EV kit accelerates development of applications for a broad range of markets that demand power efficient high speed communications and processing. Some of these include wireless (radio/baseband), aerospace and defence (radar), avionics, broadcasting (triple-rate SDI, bridging, EdgeQAM) and medical imaging. Time and cost-saving features include on-board PCI Express, Agile Mixed Signal, HDMI video output and FPGA mezzanine card connectors. Design platform help designers simultaneously deal with decreasing design cycles and increasing design complexity and project scope. The EV kit provides a flexible framework for designing higher-level systems that require DDR3, Gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express and other serial connectivity.
