Migrating to VPX - Without leaving VME behind
In our beamforming example, the bulk of the development of precision analog-to-digital conversion circuitry and the FPGA-based signal processing is in the XMC module. Using XMC modules comprising the sophisticated signal processing necessary for digital beamforming and then employing them on VME or VPX carriers is a smart way to keep a foot in both camps.
