Multi-FPGA High-Capacity Platforms through HSMC

The TR4 offers a selection of two Stratix IV GX devices, EP4SGX230 and EPSGX530, which offer

logic elements (LEs) up to 228,000 and 531,200, respectively, to provide the flexibility for users to

select a suitable device. In situations where users’ design exceeds the capacity of the FPGA, the

HSMC interface can be used to connect to other FPGA system boards creating a multi-FPGA

scalable system. Users can stack two TR4s as shown in

Figure 2-19.

Another option is to use a

Samtec high-speed cable to connect two TR4 boards (See

Figure 2-20

) to expand your system. For

more information on how to use multi-TR4 systems, please refer to

Using_Mult-TR4_system.pdf,

which can be found on the TR4 System CD.
