Part 1: AC6150 core board

FPGA+ DDR3 core board is based on XILINX's SPARTAN6 series

XC6SLX150-2FG484C. This chip develops a high-performance core board
with high speed, high bandwidth and high capacity. It is suitable for video
image processing and high-speed data acquisition.

This core board uses MICRON's MT41J128M16LA-187E DDR3 chip with

a capacity of 2Gbit; 16bit bus mode, read and write data bandwidth between
FPGA and DDR3 is up to 10Gb; this configuration can meet the needs of 4
channels of 1080p video processing.

This core board also extends 168 IO ports (84 pairs of LVDS differential

pairs), which is a good choice for users who need a lot of IO. Moreover, the
FPGA chip to the interface is treated with the same length, and the core board
size is only 60*60 (mm), which is very suitable for secondary development.
