The PRISM300 is a high-performance "Prepackaged Reconfigurable Integrated System-on-Module" (PRISM) designed to enable and accelerate advanced embedded system design. The PRISM300 boasts a high level of hardware and software integration and flexibility, employing a high-performance PowerPC coupled with the low cost, high-density, Xilinx Spartan-3E FPGA.
Mastered by the AMCC 440EPx the PRISM300 offers cutting edge processor performance with speeds up to 667 MHz and optional on-chip IPSec/SSL acceleration. The PRISM300 provides a powerful complement of memory together with an extensive peripheral set for control, communication, and data storage purposes.
For additional performance and flexibility the PowerPC is bridged to the Xilinx Spartan-3E with a high bandwidth OPB Bus Master controller, facilitating a true, dual processor system capable of implementing nearly any desired expansion interface. By arbitrating transactions in a standard Xilinx Microblaze processor system within the FPGA, a host of custom peripherals can be added to the 440EPx embedded processor with ease and rapidity.
The PRISM300 includes numerous digital and analog peripherals commonly used in communications, automotive, military, and medical applications and an available FPGA bridge provides unparalleled ability to expand the number of peripherals further.
The PRISM300 architecture is modular in nature, allowing for ease of integration of custom user logic and or custom peripheral bridging functions. The PRISM300 also comes fully equipped with on board programmable clocks, voltage regulators, and power monitors, removing these critical and often difficult hardware elements from the designer’s plate, accelerating the design cycle while facilitating the absolute fastest time to market.
