Boards/Xilinx KC705

OpenFC - an Open FPGA Cluster framework

Overview†

• Xilinx Kintex-7 325T-2 FPGA
• PCI Express Gen2 x8
• 1GB DDR3 SDRAM (x64, SO-DIMM)
• SFP+ and SMA transceiver interfaces (+ optionally, 4 channels on FMC-HPC + 1 channel on FMC-LPC)
• Vendor website: https://www.xilinx.com/products/boards-and-kits/ek-k7-kc705-g.html

Supported configurations†

• PCIe: Gen1 x8
  • Gen2 x8 is possible, but disabled because it's unstable...
• Serial links: SMA and SFP ports:
  • Populate SMA port first: SFP port doesn't work without SMA port linked-up
  • This can be changed to "SFP first" configuration, by alternating transceiver configurations
