CHAMP-WB

CHAMP-WB

Integrating FPGAs into any system can be challenging: from ensuring your boards will meet your performance needs in the most rugged conditions to creating a basic framework that will last despite growing radar system, EW & SIGINT application needs. Taking advantage of tested and proven resources can help you speed development and guarantee your boards are ready for anything.

The CHAMP-WB 6U VPX FPGA DSP card was developed for wide-band, low latency applications that require large FPGA processing, wide input/output requirements, with minimal latency. The CHAMP-WB is a key member of the Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions’ family of user-programmable AMD Virtex 7 FPGA-based computing products, designed to meet the needs of challenging embedded high-performance digital signal and image processing applications.

Utilizing the two enhanced FMC sites, the CHAMP-WB can support FMC (VITA 57) or enhanced FMC.
