Small Module Eats Images for Lunch

In our never-ending search for small form factor modules, we turned up iVeia’s Titan-V5e processing module. Based on a Xilinx Virtex-5, this platform combines general-purpose signal and video processing in a tiny 2.125″ (W) x 3.375″ (L) x 0.25″ (H) package. It runs Linux 2.6 to manage the Virtex-5’s PowerPC 440 CPU and the DSP48E slice along with additional programmable logic in the FPGA.

The Titan-V5e development kit includes the hardware, a Velocity-SoC IP core and SDK, and an optimized framework and abstraction layer that decouples the FPGA and software design to aid in development. Additional GigaFlex I/O modules complete the package.
