VC709 Evaluation Board Features
Overview
The VC709 evaluation board for the Virtex®-7 FPGA provides a hardware environment for
developing and evaluating designs targeting the Virtex-7 XC7VX690T-2FFG1761C FPGA.
The VC709 board provides features common to many embedded processing systems,
including dual DDR3 small outline dual-inline memory module (SODIMM) memories, an
8-lane PCI Express® interface, general purpose I/O, and a UART interface. Other features
can be added by using mezzanine cards attached to the VITA-57 FPGA mezzanine
connector (FMC) provided on the board. A high pin count (HPC) FMC is provided. See
