"We pride ourselves on giving our users the tools they need to be successful in their prototyping endeavors and to get a jump on their competition," said Toshio Nakama, CEO of S2C. "We are always expanding our comprehensive library of Prodigy interfaces and accessories so that users can feel confident about getting the hardware they need for their specific design requirements."

The newly released Prodigy Prototype Ready Interfaces include:

    --  SFP + GT Module used for Datacom & Telcom applications providing high
        transmission speed (10Gbit/s Ethernet application) and small physical
        size
    --  SATA GT Module used on SATA HDD applications supports the SATA3.0
        standard and provides two SATA hosts and two SATA devices providing data
        transmission speeds of up to 6Gbit/s
    --  Processor Peripheral Module used for Processor-based SoC development.
        The abundant peripherals features (onboard NAND, NOR and SPI Flash for
        boot code storing, ARM JTAG & ARM ETM Debugger trace for system
        debugging) allow users to quickly build their verification environment.
    --  3 Channel GMII PHY Interface Module that supports the GMII interface and
        is 10/100/1000 BASE-T IEEE 802.3 compliant
    --  Prodigy to FMC-LPC Converter Module to convert a Prodigy I/O Connector
        to a FMC-LPC I/O connector
    --  Prodigy to FMC-HPC Converter Module that converts two Prodigy I/O
        Connectors to a FMC-HPC & FMC-LPC I/O connector
    --  HT3 Prodigy Converter Module that converts a Prodigy I/O Connector to 3
        HT3 I/O connectors
    --  Prodigy Connector Spacer Module to add approximately 17.5mm of height
        between a Prodigy Socket and a Prodigy Mezzanine Connector
