Hardware - CSX700
The CSX architecture has been developed to address the requirements for accelerators in HPC and solve the Size, Weight and Power (SWAP) constraints which dominate high performance embedded applications. By integrating processing, system interfaces and on-chip memory with ECC the CSX700 brings cost, reliability and performance advantages.
CSX700 Product Brief (PDF)
This document includes product features and benefits information for the CSX700.
ClearSpeed’s Advance™ accelerators are designed specifically to address the performance requirements of numerically intensive applications. Their high performance, low power designs enable you to maximize your datacenter’s performance within its space, power and cooling constraints. The CSX700 is the latest member of the ClearSpeed processor family and is the world’s most power-efficient 64-bit floating point accelerator.
The Advance e710 is a low profile, PCIe card. Its compact size and low power requirement enables one or more to be installed in a wide range of industry standard multi-core servers that incorporate the PCIe standard. The Advance e720 uses the same technology to deliver performance in an HP Blade system compatible type-II mezzanine format.
Together the Advance e710 and the Advance e720 cards enable acceleration across a broad range of industry-standard server platforms.
