DNMEG Array Daughter Cards

This page describes all of the MEG-Array daughter card expansion options available for Dini Group products. All of these cards are compatible with the DN9000K10-series and DN7000K10-series boards; for compatibility with DN8000K10-series board please see the Daughter Card compatibility guide

These daughter cards are only part of the expansion options available for Dini Group boards. For DNSODM expansion boards (mountable into Dini Group SODIMM sockets) see this page.


 

 

DNMEG Intercon
The DNMEG_Intercon is a daughter card that bridges the expansion signals between two 400-pin MEG-Array connectors, adding 93 pairs of LVDS signals for FPGA to FPGA interconnect. At a lower frequency, the 93 pairs can be used as 186 signal ended signals. Linear regulators needed to drive the VCCIO voltages are provided, along with several LED's for power presence and reset activity.

 

DNMEG_Obs
The DNMEG_Obs Observation Daughter card is a complete solution for observation of signals on a 300-pin or 400-pin FCI MEG-Array connector and is used with the DN8000K10-series, DN7000K10-series, DN9000K10-series, and other FPGA-based products from The DINI Group.

 

DNMEG Mictor Diff
The DNMEG_Mictor_Diff daughter card is a solution for connecting your Dini Group board to a differential mictor interface. The PCB is routed for maximum differential throughout and the connectors pinned out to minimize crosstalk between pairs.


 

DNMEG_DVI
The DNMEG_DVI-200 and DNMEG_DVI-400 provide dual-link input and dual-link output Digital Video interface (DVI) functionality.


DNMEG_V5T
The DNMEG_V5T enables engineers to utilize the Xilinx Virtex-5T FPGA for high-speed serial interconnect. It is hosted on any DINI Group ASIC Emulation product that has MEG-Array expansion capability but also can be operated in stand-alone mode with a separate power supply. Connectors for the high-speed MGTs include four SMA channels (Rx/Tx), one 4x Infiniband connector, four SFP sockets, and four high-speed channels on a QSE connector.


DNMEG_V5T_PCIe
The DNMEG_V5T_PCIE allows an additional PCI Express interface to be added to any Dini Group FPGA board, including the DN9000K10. It connects to a base-board using the high-speed MEG-400 daughter card interface and can also be used stand-alone. In addition to two 4-lane PCIe cable interfaces, this card is equipped with an SFP, four RX/TX channels via SMAs, and one 4x DisplayPort Source/Sink.


DNMEG_CPCIE
The combination of the DNMEG_CPCIe, the DNPCIe_CBL-UPSTREAM / DNPCIe_CBL-DOWNSTREAM, and two iPASS cables adds 1-lane,4-lane, or 8-lane PCI Express (GEN1) to all DINI Group products that have FCI MEG-Array expansion connector.


DNMEG_S2GX
The DNMEG_S2GX is a daughter card that enables ASIC or IP designers a vehicle to prototype logic and memory designs for a fraction of the cost of existing solutions. Of the 12 available high-speed channels, four are connected to SFPs, four to SMAs, and four to SATA connectors.


DNMEG_AD-DA
The DNMEG_AD-DA is intended to be a peripheral daughter card to our ASIC emulation products, but can be used stand-alone with an inexpensive ATX power supply. It allows designers two DAC channels and two ADC channels for Analog-to-Digital or Digital-to-Analog communication.
