DUKU040 Xilinx Kintex UltraScale XCKU040 FPGA Development Board

Board model: DUKU040 V1.0

The DUKU040 is built around the Xilinx Kintex UltraScale XCKU040-2FFVA1156I industrial-grade FPGA, integrating 530K logic cells, 242,400 LUTs, 484,800 flip-flops, 1920 DSP slices, and 21.1Mb Block RAM, with 20 pairs of GTH transceivers (up to 16.3 Gbps per lane). The 83.8×64.8mm core board brings out all IOs through 168P board-to-board connectors, integrating 8GB DDR4 (64-bit), 512Mb QSPI, and 16GB eMMC. The 195×105mm carrier exposes 1×FMC HPC (8 GTH pairs, 144 IOs) + 2×FMC LPC (1 GTH pair, 72 IOs each), PCIe 3.0 x8, 2×SFP+ cages, dual Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI 1.4 output, with 200MHz + 125MHz differential clocks. Fully compatible with the Vivado design suite, it provides rich reference designs for LED, UART, DDR4, PCIe, and Ethernet, ready for high-speed data acquisition, software-defined radio, radar signal processing, machine vision, and high-speed communication prototyping.

Typical Application Scenarios

One platform, many roles

Communications

5G/6G base stations and high-speed network equipment impose strict requirements on protocol processing, data forwarding and deterministic latency. With high-speed transceivers, reconfigurable protocol stacks and parallel pipelines, FPGA powers 100G optical communication, protocol processing and network security acceleration, providing a high-throughput, low-latency hardware platform from R&D to mass production.

Research & Prototyping

From university labs to enterprise pre-research, rapidly verifying algorithms and hardware architectures is the critical first step to project success. Duyuan FPGA development boards and SoMs provide rich high-speed interfaces, complete reference designs and end-to-end technical support for ASIC prototype verification, high-speed data acquisition, instrument development and academic research — helping teams turn ideas into working hardware systems quickly.

Video & Image Processing

4K/8K video, machine vision and industrial cameras impose strict requirements on end-to-end latency and interface coverage. With hardware-direct video paths and parallel pipelines, FPGA delivers microsecond-level deterministic processing in video encoding/decoding, image pre-processing, multi-protocol interfaces and low-latency transport, supporting deep customization of video services and vision algorithms.

High-Performance Radar

Phased-array and imaging radar impose strict requirements on signal processing platforms: multi-channel parallel acquisition, high-throughput dataflow and deterministic low latency. With its reconfigurable parallel architecture, FPGA serves as the core carrier of radar signal processing, delivering multi-channel parallel, high-throughput, deterministic low-latency compute in beamforming, pulse compression and target detection, while supporting algorithm reconfiguration and platform evolution.
