Extreme Engineering Solutions, Inc. (X-ES) announces a selection of rugged,
Intel® processor-based VPX SBC's featuring onboard FPGA modules from
the
Microsemi SmartFusion®2 families.
The 3U OpenVPX™ XPedite7572 with a
5th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 processor and
XPedite7672 with the Intel®
Xeon® D
processor are low-power,
high-performance SBCs that
offer
a sophisticated set of
features for
securing
critical
applications or securing an entire system
and
the information within it,
while also providing best-in-class processing performance
with
Intel® processors.
Both
small
form factor 3U VPX cards incorporate the Microsemi SmartFusion®2
SoC
as its root of trust. As
implemented on these SBC's,
the power-on control and boot
path is entirely controlled and monitored by the SmartFusion®2
to provide authentication and detection against
many types of
attacks. The SmartFusion®2's integrated Physically
Unclonable Function (PUF),
protection against
Differential Power Analysis (DPA) attacks,
flash-based FPGA fabric, and advanced cryptographic processing elements
make this an ideal platform for
implementing security throughout the supply
chain in military, aviation,
communication,
and
industrial environments.
The XPedite7572
and XPedite7672
have
1 GB of ECC DDR3 and up to 64 MB
of SPI NOR did
flash attach to the SmartFusion® 2, which also has a high-speed x4 PCI
Express Gen2
interface to the Intel® CPU. This architecture, combined with the SmartFusion®2's integrated ARM®
Cortex™-M3 processor, allows great
flexibility for
implementing custom IP as an encryption/decryption co-processor, data path monitor,
or tools to extend run-time trust into the OS, application, or
system. The SmartFusion®2 SoC also performs basic system health monitoring, but
can
be combined with advanced IP to implement system
penalties appropriate to the program needs.
These features, in addition to advanced PCB
fabrication techniques and heatframe design, encompasses
X-ES SecureCOTS™
technology. Flexible backplane I/O, such as hi-bandwidth PCI-Express Gen3, 10GBASE-KR, 1000BASE-BX,
SmartFusion®2 GPIO, SATA,
and
USB, allow these cards to fit perfectly
wherever high security and reliability is needed.
