HTG-520: Virtex™ 5 
8-Lane PCI Express Development Platform
 

The HTG-520 board is powered by Xilinx Virtex™-5 FX100T, FX70TSX95T or LX110T and supports 8 lanes of PCI Express Gen 1 & 2 end-point applications.

The HTG-520 provides wide variety of connectors and interfaces including ;one PCI Express 8-lane endpoint , two Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000, one with SGMII support),  eight  SMA (connected to two RocketIO GTP/GTX channels),  and two Samtec with 64 pairs of LVDS (for DVI Tx, USB 2.0, Cameralink , and I/O modules).

The HTG-520 board  provides access to up to 2 GB of DDR-2 memory through one set of SODIMM socket.

The HTG-520 can be used either as stand-alone  or PCI Express based card. This provides additional functionality and cost saving so designers can use the board for multiple designs and projects (embedded systems development, digital signal processing, etc.)

The HTG-520 board is supported by  many different IP Cores provided by HiTech Global.
