The GR-CPCI-AX board has been developed as a co-operation between Aeroflex Gaisler and Pender Electronic Design, to support the early development and fast prototyping of LEON3 designs. The board incorporates a socket for an Actel AX2000/RTAX2000 field programmable gate array, and is capable of operating stand-alone, as a Compact-PCI plug-in card, and as a Compact-PCI system controller.

GR-CPCI-AX board features:

• Compact-PCI plug-in form factor
• Socket for AX2000-FG896 or RTAX2000-CGA624 devices
• 8 Mbyte FLASH prom (8M x 8)
• 1 standard SO-DIMM socket for up to 256 Mbyte SDRAM with ECC
• 4 Mbyte static ram with ECC (1M x 40)
• 10/100 Mbit Ethernet MAC (LAN91C111)
• 33/66 MHz, 32/64-bit CPCI interface (3V)
• Standard RS-232 UART port for DSU
• 120-pins memory and custom I/O expansion connectors (AMP-177-984-5)
• JTAG and slave-serial FPGA programming capability
• CPCI system controller (clock distribution & PCI arbitration)
• LEON3-FT compatible

To provide more I/O possibilities, additional I/O expansion boards are available. LEON3 RTEMS and Bare-C cross-compilers can be downloaded freely.

Additional software tools such as BSP for VxWorks and ThreadX can be purchased separately.
