Austin, TX – 4DSP announces the release of a new analog-to-digital (A/D) / digital-to-analog (D/A) FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) card for single-channel data acquisition and high-speed signal processing and recording. The FMC170 is an FMC daughter card that provides one 10-bit A/D channel with speeds up to 5 Gsps and one 10-bit D/A channel at 5 Gsps. It offers front panel analog I/O access and can be used in a conduction-cooled environment. This module delivers high-bandwidth connectivity for calculation-heavy FPGA-based applications. The FMC170 is very well-suited for high performance applications in the communications, medical, and defense industries.
The low latency data path of the FMC170 enables 2.5GHz of instantaneous bandwidth in both the receive and transmit directions. The analog signal input and output are AC-coupled and connected to MMCX or SSMC coax connectors on the front panel. The FMC170 allows flexible control of clock source, sampling frequency, and calibration through I2C communication. The FMC170 is ideal for the high data throughput requirements of RADAR/SONAR and aerospace.
“4DSP’s extensive portfolio of FMC modules offers the most diverse range of capabilities in the embedded computing industry,” said Engineering Manager, Peter Kortekaas. “With the FMC170, we are bringing yet another choice for compact, high-bandwidth A/D and D/A to market for maximum performance in a variety of demanding real-time applications.”
