Xilinx KC705 Evaluation Kit

Description

The KC705 is a high-performance, high-speed design platform providing the integration of hardware, software, IP, and reference designs which enables quicker time-to-innovation for researchers. Based around the Xilinx Kintex-7 FPGA, it is equipped with industry-standard peripherals, connects, and interfaces that offer a rich set of features suitable for a wide range of applications.

Benefits

Accelerates research by providing a feature-rich platform for implementing and validating embedded system architectures and algorithms
Addresses specific research needs through a hardware/software programmable system and application-specific daughter cards (e.g., analog interface module)
Enables a faster path to commercialization by sourcing commercial-grade components and through compliance with commercial standards and interfaces (e.g., PCI-express, Ethernet)

Applications

Embedded system design and emulation, specially hardware and software IP design and proof of the concept such as video codec, imaging/signal processing, communication protocol, etc., which needs advanced memories, connectivity, digital signal, and embedded processing
Hardware-In-Loop (HIL) co-simulation, from system-level to verify the hardware design on FPGA
FPGA-based application acceleration in various research fields
