baco Systems recently announced a design win to support
a customer with upgrades to a minehunting system, which
is a towed sonar array that uses multiple sensors to identify
and detect mine-like objects. These upgrades will provide
faster processing and the latest technology, which will increase
safety for warfighters.
The design win contains Abaco's VP780 FPGA card, as well as
the SBC329 3U OpenVPX single board computer. The SBC329 offers
a rugged design with convection or conduction cooling and
advanced heat management technologies to deliver ultimate performance.
This SBC also features advanced security and anti-tamper
features that provide a secure processing environment.
Abaco's VP780 provides a high-performance Virtex-7 VPX
card with advanced digital signal processing capabilities that has
been optimized to implement complex FPGA algorithms with
high throughput requirements. The combination of these two
boards makes the solution suitable for high performance applications
requiring accelerated frequency-domain algorithms such
as with FFTs. The VP780 compliments the SBC329 and delivers
a design that will satisfy the customer's needs.
As the incumbent, Abaco was chosen over other competitors
because it can provide a ready solution that meets the technical
requirements with a lowered form, fit, and function replacement
to the existing design. This project will include delivery of thirtyfour
systems with two of each FPGA card and SBC in each system
over the course of two years. Development will be completed by
the end of 2022 and production will begin in early 2023.

B
ell Textron Inc., a Textron Inc. company, has unveiled design
concepts for new aircraft systems for military applications
that would use Bell's High-Speed Vertical Take-Off and
Landing (HSVTOL) technology as the company continues
working toward next generation vertical lift aircraft. HSVTOL
technology blends the hover capability of a helicopter with the
speed, range, and survivability features of a fighter aircraft.
" Our technology investments have reduced risk and prepared
us for rapid development of HSVTOL in a digital engineering
environment, leveraging experience from a robust
past of technology exploration and close partnerships with
the Department of Defense and Research Laboratories, " said
Jason Hurst, Bell's Vice President of Innovation.

Intro
Cov
Abaco's VP780 is powered by a Xilinx® Virtex™-7 FPGA
with advanced digital signal processing capabilities. The design
has been optimized for the implementation of complex
FPGA algorithms with high throughput requirements. It is in
the 3U VPX form factor, with a VITA 57-compliant FPGA
Mezzanine Card (FMC) site, making it possible to easily integrate
I/O cards with A/D, D/A, RF capabilities and more.
Abaco also supports a full line of FMC devices and 3U and 6U
VPX-based FPGA products for industrial and MIL/Aero applications
from the Virtex-7 up through the latest UltraScale+
FPGAs and RFSoC devices.
The SBC329 Rugged Single Board Computer (SBC) from Abaco
Systems features the high-performance, highly integrated 7th
Generation Intel Core processor platform. The Intel Xeon processor
offers integrated graphics and memory controller plus quad
core processing up to 4.0 GHz, all in one device. Coupled with
the CM238 chipset, this provides an upgraded level of I/O bandwidth
for both on-board and off-board functions.
