Avalanche V96SSC / V350EPC Evaluation Kit

The Avalanche PCI Evaluation Kit from V3 Semiconductor includes software tools and technical support that provide embedded system designers with a ready-made solution for high-performance embedded PCI applications using the popular i960 JA processor from Intel. This kit is an efficient way of assessing the performance and flexibility of the V96SSC and V350EPC chips. In addition, the Avalanche is a proven platform to develop application software during hardware development, substantially reducing the design cycle.
