  • 20-year support for chipset minimises long term cost of ownership  
Abaco Systems announced the XMCGA8 XMC High Performance Graphics Board. Designed for customers requiring the ability to deliver safety-critical applications certified to DO-178 and DO-254 with long term support, it can provide an industry-leading four DVI ports, giving the XMCGA8 unique flexibility.

The VITA 42-compliant XMCGA8 is available with the AMD/CoreAVI Radeon E8860 ‘Adelaar’ graphics processing unit, enabling it to deliver twice the graphics throughput of its predecessor, the XMCGA7 for which it represents a highly cost-effective upgrade that can deliver twice the performance/slot of its predecessor.

​The XMCGA8’s leadership is reinforced by its minimal TDP (thermal design power).

The CoreAVI chip set features parts that have been temperature screened and qualified, and is supported by the necessary low level operating system graphics drivers (OpenGL) for VxWorks® 6.9 and VxWorks 653 safety-critical applications. The chip set will be supported for up to 20 years. Certifiable artifacts will be available from CoreAVI that can support a DAL A system design, potentially making the development of such systems more affordable.
Windows® and Linux® support are also provided.

The XMCGA8’s superior graphics processing capability makes it ideal for demanding applications in wide area surveillance applications, allowing the incorporation of data from multiple sensor types to build a complete picture of a large geographical area, delivering increased situational awareness and context.

As well as being capable of supporting demanding graphical applications, the XMCGA8 can also be deployed as a GPGPU platform for applications such as ISR, radar and sonar.

The XMCGA8 can provide up to four DVI outputs at resolutions up to 1,920 x 1,200 at 60Hz and up to two VESA VGA outputs at the same resolutions. It is available in a range of configurations and can be air- or conduction-cooled. A VITA 61 variant is also available.
