FMC416-370
4-channel 16-bit 370MSPS A/D
Description
The FMC416-370 is an analog-to-digital (A/D) FMC daughter card that provides four 16-bit A/D channels at 370MSPS which can be clocked by an internal clock source (optionally locked to an external reference) or by an externally-supplied sample clock. A trigger input is also available for customized sampling control. The FMC416-370 is mechanically and electrically compliant to the FMC standard (ANSI/VITA 57.1-2010). It offers front panel analog I/O access and can be used in a conduction-cooled environment.
The design is based on Texas Instrument's ADC16DX370 dual-channel 16-bit 370MSPS ADC. The analog signal inputs are either AC or DC-coupled and connected to MMCX/SSMC coax connectors on the front panel. The FMC416-370 allows flexible control of sampling frequency and offset correction through serial communication busses. The card is equipped with power supply and temperature monitoring and offers several power-down modes to switch off unused functions. The FMC416-370 is ideal for applications where limited space is available such as RADAR/SONAR, wireless telecommunications, and aerospace test and measurement instruments.
The FMC416-370 also features a JESD204B serial interface to provide a simplified high-speed interface between the data converters and the FPGA with a minimum of digital IO on the board. This module therefore delivers high-bandwidth connectivity suited for a wide range of calculation-heavy FPGA-based applications such as beamforming, direction finding, and software-defined radio (SDR).
