3.20 ROCKETIO HEADER
Brand new in Virtex 6 just for you we invented a new type of header, the "GTX Expansion Header
Interface" (abbreviated S.E.A.M.)
There are three of these on the DNV6F6PCIE, attached to FPGAs A, C and D.
We don't have any off-the-shelf SEAM daughter cards yet, so you are expected to design your own.
Send a request to [email protected] to see what we are willing to do for you.
Each SEAM provides 8 channels of high-speed serial data to the FPGA. There are four REFCLK
signals from the SEAM connector to the FPGA, making four independent interfaces on one SEAM
connection feasible. Additionally, for the purpose of control, there are 16 "low speed" I/O that go to
the FPGA "regular" I/O pins.
