Flagship Real-Time Digital Simulator OP5707XG Architecture

Simulator Architecture

The OP5707XG uses a combination of Intel processors to enable real-time computing of very large models, as well as an FPGA to include ultra-fast loop time for fast-switching frequency real-time simulation. The Xilinx® Virtex®-7 FPGA’s timer resolution of 5ns supports model time-steps as low as 145ns, when using eHS FPGA-based Power Electronics Toolbox.


All this exceptional computing power is available in a single rack-mounted chassis. Benefit from parallel processing to perform high-fidelity real-time electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulation of large and complex systems, as well as an FPGA for high-frequency power electronics applications.



Accurate Monitoring and HIL Interfacing

Convenient RJ45 and mini-BNC monitoring connectors are also available at the front of the simulator and standard DB37 connectors at the back for simple and efficient HIL interfacing.
