VPX3-450 3U VPX FPGA
The VXP3-450 is designed to used in either a single-board configuration, or in multi-board configurations with other VPX3-450 boards or the VPX3-127 Single Board Computer (SBC) with a high-speed PCI Express serial switching fabric. All platforms utilize Curtiss-Wright's Continuum Software Architecture (CSA) to insure compatibility and user code commonality across platforms.
