The VPX3-491 3U OpenVPX general-purpose graphics processing unit (GPGPU) features an NVIDIA GPU with 240 CUDA cores. The card functions as a coprocessor attached to a host Intel processor board and uses the new PCIe Expansion Plane definitions in the VITA 65 OpenVPX standard for high-speed backplane support.
The card fits demanding military DSP applications such as C4ISR, EO/IR, and SatCom. It supports the high-performance GPU with a 2 Gbytes of 256-bit-wide 80-Gbyte/s GDDR5 memory and a 16-lane Gen2 PCIe interface to the backplane, plus 8-lane and 4-lane PCIe interfaces. It has dual DVI graphics outputs and –40° to 85°C operation is optional. (From $9,900 — available now.)
