Introduction

SNETLY is based on a state-of-the-art innovative technology that provides a modular environment for real-time system development – Powered by Smart ProtoX.
SNETLY is a ready-to-use FPGA-based modular environment for real-time system development, an innovative design by Smart ProtoX. This controller can be used to create control algorithms, generate instant waveforms, and generate signals needed for power electronics control and many other applications. It is a standalone system and operates without a PC and an Operating System.
Equipped with the latest powerful Xilinx ARTIX-7 FPGA Controller @150MHZ Clock source, which delivers raw simulation power for real-time simulation and testing. This system delivers the fastest and the most versatile HIL applications.

Problem with Existing Product

1. Development and Deployment environment are different.

2. The development environment needs additional resources like PC and licensed software.

3. Existing products are not suitable for quick prototyping.

4. Require additional time for development and deployment.

5. Users need more knowledge to use real-time tools.

6. Deployment hardware is costly System expansion needs a backplane system chassis environment which limits the system expansion and mobility.

Our Better Solution for you​

1. Development and Deployment on the same Snetly environment, hence there are no additional PC and software resources required.

2. Our system all logic blocks are in an implemented state which is easy for engineer to develop their controller development.

3. Which is significantly reduces the development time.
The system is User-friendly.

4. Volume (program) production of cards can be done by one Master controller system.

5. System expansion can be done using the optical interface.

6. Cost-effective and Ruggedized deployment hardware solution.

Architecture

Snetly architecture provides a high-performance interface between functional modules.

It accepts read and write commands from SPX Controller IP for configuration, status check, and manages local real-time data streaming between all modules.

Analog and digital IO interfaces are fully isolated from FPGA.

The Current and voltage sensing circuits are integrated to confirm user can develop and focus only on controller design.
