Industrial Command and Control

The growing need within the factory floor to lower cost and increase efficiency is causing equipment manufacturers to develop ever more complex systems. The increasing pressure to reduce energy consumption while integrating more functions in industrial control systems is stretching the capabilities of typical design approaches. Xilinx FPGAs provide developers with a scalable option for accelerating processing intensive functions in hardware and provides a flexible programming environment when using the Xilinx ISE^® Design Suite – all while reducing overall system cost.

The low-cost Spartan^®-6 FPGA architecture is ideally suited for industrial control applications with integrated digital signal processing (DSP) blocks, flexible power management, block memories, a PCIe^® Endpoint interface, and low-power transceivers. A Microblaze^TM embedded soft processor and IP peripherals including UARTs, DMA, GPIO, I2C, and SPI are available to make a powerful SoC-type embedded device. Xilinx also offers a wide library of IP, reference designs, and targeted design platforms as building blocks for design engineers that shorten design cycle, and ensures high system performance.
