The 8-TigerSHARC and PowerPC Board (V8TS) from Mistral is an extremely powerful dual sub-system product consisting of digital signal processing and control processing on a single 6UVME platform. The DSP sub-system consists of 8 Analog Devices’ TS201TigerSHARC DSPs to provide an extremely powerful multiprocessing DSP platform of 28.8GFLOPS processing power with DSP core operating @ 600MHz. The control processing subsystem is powered by PowerPC 440 @ 800MHz which provides all the processing for the peripherals & OS.

The combination of DSP processing power and PPC with OS and peripheral support on the same VME board makes this a cost effective and easy-to-use solution for systems that need high-end data processing and application control. The board is ideal for usage in radar, sonar and naval applications.
