Accelerated Development
Accelerate your Designs – Right Out of the Box
• Fewer resources under tighter deadlines,
new standards, and shifting requirements
make for a challenging design environment
The Spartan®-6 FPGA SP605 Evaluation Kit conveniently delivers all the
basic components of the Xilinx Base Targeted Design Platform for developing
broadcast, wireless communications, automotive, and other cost- and powersensitive applications that require transceiver capabilities in one package. Along
with the development board, cables, and documentation, the new kit provides an
integration of hardware, software, IP, and pre-verified reference designs so
development can begin right out of the box.
• Market expectations for higher performance
and more intelligent features require new
approaches to developing electronic
systems
• Today’s systems call for advanced memories,
connectivity, digital signal, and embedded
processing, all working together
Simpler and Smarter
Methodologies
• Xilinx Targeted Design Platforms enable
software and hardware designers alike to
leverage open standards, common design
methodologies, development tools, and
run-time platforms
• Design teams can spend less time
developing the infrastructure of an
application and more time building
differentiating features into the end
application
• Targeted Design Platforms from Xilinx
and its network of third parties provide
system designers with simpler and smarter
methodologies for creating FPGA-based
system-on-chip solutions
Value-added Productivity
With everything you need in one package, the Spartan-6 FPGA SP605
Evaluation Kit provides value-added productivity gains that you can’t get from à la
carte development system assemblies. Functional infrastructure that already looks
like your basic architecture makes you more productive as you ramp up a new design,
enabling quicker time-to-innovation for differentiating your products versus your
competition. Multiple design examples provide insight and a kick-start on how to
implement system IP to optimize your unique application.
Integrated, Easy-to-Use Solutions
The Spartan-6 FPGA SP605 Evaluation Kit provides a flexible environment for
higher-level system design including applications which need to implement features
such as high-speed serial transceivers, PCI Express®, DVI, and/or DDR3. The SP605
development board includes an industry-standard FMC (FPGA Mezzanine Card)
connector for scaling and customization to specific applications and markets. The
integration of Xilinx development tools help streamline the creation of systems that
adhere to complex requirements.
