Up to VU13P FPGA: 3.8 million LCs and 360Mb UltraRAM FPGA by Xilinx
Overview
BittWare’s XUP-VVP is an UltraScale+ VU13P FPGA-based PCIe card, designed for ultra high power applications. The Xilinx UltraScale+ VU13P FPGA gives designers incredible performance potential, with 3.8M logic elements —yet with a power density that makes power and thermal management difficult. The XUP-VVP meets this challenge with BittWare’s Viper platform, supporting monster FPGA loads, up to 256 GBytes DDR4 or 1152 Mbits QDR-II+, and 4x 100 Gbps Ethernet.
BittWare’s Viper platform uses advanced computer flow simulation to drive the physical board design in a thermals first approach, including the use of heat pipes, airflow channels, and arranging components to maximize the limited available airflow in a server. While the default option for the board is air-cooling, the XUP-VVP is also available with liquid cooling for rapid heat removal. A 300A FPGA core power supply powers even the largest FPGA loads.
