86 Chapter 4: Matrox Solios hardware reference
Processing FPGA
Depending on your application requirements, you can purchase the board with a
Processing FPGA implemented using one of the following two supported FPGA
chips.
High-speed serial interface
The Processing FPGA includes a 32-channel (16 channels per direction),
high-speed serial interface to communicate with the acquisition section of the
Matrox Solios boards. Each channel has a data rate of 462 Mbits/sec, for a total
of 924 Mbytes/sec per direction.
PCI-X interface
The 64-bit PCI-X interface allows the Processing FPGA to communicate with the
Host. It is 64-bits wide and runs at 100 MHz, providing a throughput of up to
800 Mbytes/sec. The implementation of the PCI-X interface will vary depending
on the requirements of the application.
