FEATURES
Maximum flexibility and precision
Modularity
Connect your devices and systems without limitation. Onboard expansion slots accommodate up to 8 analog and digital I/O modules, with signal conditioning to support a combination of up to 128 fast analog or 256 digital channels. See compatible I/O modules and accessories.
Scalability
The OP5707XG supports up to 16 SFP multi-mode fiber-optic modules and LVDS/fiber optic synchronization for high-speed communication and synchronization between devices and expansion units. Easily expand simulation and I/O capacity using other OPAL-RT FPGA and I/O expansion units. See the list of communication protocols.
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.

SIMULATOR ARCHITECTURE
Scalable, high-speed simulation design
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 AMD Virtex™-7 FPGA’s timer resolution of 5 ns supports model time-steps as low as 145 ns, 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.
