Overview
The FMC123 provides four 16-bit A/D channels up to 1 GSPS.
The design is based on Texas Instruments' ADS54J60 Analog-to-Digital converter. The sample clock can be supplied externally through a coaxial connection or supplied by an internal clock source (optionally locked to an external reference) for multi-channel synchronization. An external trigger input is available for timing synchronization.
The FMC123 is mechanically and electrically compliant with the FMC standard (ANSI/VITA 57.1). The card connects to an FPGA carrier card through a standard high pin count (HPC) connector.
Front panel I/O can optionally be populated with MMCX or SSMC coaxial connectors. Analog I/O is DC coupled.
The FMC123 is designed to be used in convection or conduction cooled environments. When paired with the latest FPGA carrier cards such as the Abaco Systems PC821 with Xilinx Ultrascale technology, customers can develop innovative high performance algorithms on an industry standard platform.
Board Support Package
Our Board Support Package helps customers get their hardware implementation underway as quickly as possible by providing reference designs, the Stellar IP FPGA development tool, and the 4FM GUI user interface for controlling and monitoring the hardware, as well as other supporting elements.
