STRUCTURE OF XILLINX VIRTEX-7 VC709 AND APPLICATIONS

Abstract

Virtex-7 FGPA VC709 was designed and manufactoried by Xillinx in 2010.Virtex7 VC709 is a platform with speed of 40Gb/s for high-bandwidth and high-performance applications. Virtex-7 includes many helpful hardwares, tools and IP to quickly develop, connect and assess the designed sysems by developers and programmers. Besides some interfaces such as PCI Express Gen 3, DMA IP core and Virtual FIFO memory, Virtex-7 also includes a GUI which includes all the software drivers. This paper not only presents the structure of Virtex-7 but also introduces basic applications of Virtex-7. Therefore, the developers and researchers can ultilize this kind of Virtex for future applications
