Product Description
Optical communications have become the new standard in the embedded industry with the increasing demand for bandwidth. This demand is driven by new high-resolution sensors and by intercommunications needed among processing units.
To design, qualify and develop your new systems based on optical, TECHWAY brings you a ready-to-use solution with the PERSIAN high speed optical development-board.
PERSIAN is a Xilinx Kintex®-7 FPGA board which features several high-speed optical links based Radiall D-Lightsys® technology.
Thanks to its PCIe x4 form factor and its stand-alone capabilities, the PERSIAN can be operated for two main usages :
- Demo-board for the optical component qualification
- Development-board for software and firmware as well as integration purposes
PERSIAN as a demo-board
In this configuration, no need for a PC. PERSIAN is operated in stand-alone in your lab. You just need a JTAG plug and Xilinx WebPACKTM free tool (Serial I/O Analyzer). A built-in BERT firmware is available on board with a wide range of parameter settings to optimize your optical services.
PERSIAN as a development-board
We deliver together with an SDK/driver under Windows and Linux. Once plugged into a PC, PERSIAN offers an easy-to-operate development environment for both your firmware and software. To use the PERSIAN as a development board, a Vivado design suite licence is required.
In summary, PERSIAN is ready-to-go, easy-to-use, convenient solution to qualify your optical systems and build test benches.

D-LightSYS® Technology
Since 2007, D-Lightsys® transceivers have been flying with military and commercial aircrafts and have proven to be the perfect solution for demanding applications.
The new 10+ G range utilizes D-Lightsys® technology and offers the unique benefits, including a very small footprint and extended link budget for applications where long term data transmission reliability is required. The low power consumption makes these modules especially suited for on board applications (aircraft, UAV, satellites).
Directly compatible with most digital balanced signal protocols, the 10+ G range meets IEEE std 10G Base-SR10, Fiber Channel, InfiniBand, SFPDP, sRIO and VSR requirements as well as ARINC 818 and DVI video standards.
The D-Lightsys® solutions are qualified for shock and vibration and are in compliance with MIL standards.
