ULTRA300
The ULTRA300 NX2H300TSA is the second generation of NanoXplore Radiation Hardened By Design (RHBD) FPGA based on 28nm FD-SOI Technology Platform from STMicroelectronics. It has a logic capacity of 290k LUTs. The hardening techniques used in the NG-ULTRA alongside the FD-SOI technology offers very strong hardening performance.
As shown in Figure above, ULTRA300 NX2H300TSA is composed of a central fabric embedding the programmable logic matrix, including RAM and DSP blocks. The fabric takes benefit from the high-speed connectivity such as High-Speed Serial Links (HSSLs) and SPW, DDR2 interfaces. It is covered with a grid of high-level functional blocks interleaved with interconnect structures providing routing resources to realize the connections within the fabric and to the peripheral I/Os. The programmable logic resources are arranged in a hierarchical structure called a TILE with a specific local interconnect network. I/Os are arranged into multiple banks. Each bank has its own I/O buffer supply voltage.
In addition, the ULTRA300 NX2H300TSA offers the following additional features:
4 Digital to Analog Converters (DAC)
4 Analog to Digital Converters (ADC)
This page provides a list of all available documentations related to use efficiently the ULTRA300 NX2H300TSA.
