Designers can now harness computing power through the web from cloud resources to take full advantage of Tabula's breakthrough Spacetime 3D architecture, accelerating end-product time-to-market at lower costs. The industry's first integrated synthesis and place-and-route (SP&R) package supporting 3PLD devices, Stylus manages the underlying reconfiguration transparently, automatically mapping standard RTL into Spacetime.

The ABAX development kit delivers a powerful and versatile platform for evaluating ABAX 3PLD-based solutions. The development kit comes with access to
the Stylus Spacetime compiler on Tabula Compute Cloud, enabling a secure 24/7 access to state-of-the-art compute capabilities. 3PLDs are based on Tabula's ground breaking Spacetime architecture, setting a new standard for density, performance, and affordability for programmable logic. At the center of the development board is the ABAX A1EC04 device, providing 390k LUTs, 5.5 MBytes of RAM, and 48 channels of high-speed SerDes to the user.
The board comes equipped with a generous amount of off-chip memory — x72 1 GB DDR3 in mini VLP DIMM and x36 72Mb of QDRII SRAM. In addition, the board provides a wealth of connectivity including ×8 PCI Express edge fingers enabling high-speed communication with the host system.
