Virtex 6 dev. board suppliers?

Sep 16, 2011 6 Replies

Hi,



I'm looking for a Xilinx Virtex 6 based dev. board, (with PCIe and SFP connectors for 10G Ethernet). Other than Hitech Global, what other suppliers are there? You suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks.

The Avnet-designed Virtex-6 LX130T Evaluation Kit is no longer available. The ML605 has PCIe and SFP.

Thanks, the ML605 might be a good starting point. I should have been more specific, SFP+ is what is needed for 10G, and the ML605 doesn't have that.

It looks like there are not a lot of Virtex-6 off the shelf board suppliers out there.

What about the Altera Stratix IV, does it have a larger supplier base?

Why not checking

There's the Terasic DE4 board which you can combine with this mezzanine card:

In order to interface with a 10G SFP+ module you will need a board that uses the Virtex-6 HXT family. Xilinx did not release Virtex-6 HXT board with both PCIe and SFP+ capabilities.
