The RFEVM development board adopts the AMD Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC Gen3 series ZU47DR FPGA chip, integrating high-performance RF data converters, programmable logic, an ARM Cortex-A53 processing subsystem, and multi-gigabit transceivers. It supports 8-channel 14-bit RF-ADCs with a maximum sampling rate of 5 GSPS, and 8-channel 14-bit RF-DACs with a maximum sampling rate of 9.85 GSPS. The RF interfaces offer wide frequency band support through configurable coupling and conditioning circuits. It provides a comprehensive RF signal chain that maximizes I/O channel density and bandwidth while leveraging heterogeneous processing capabilities for reduced power consumption.
Designed for large-scale MIMO systems, 5G baseband processing, fixed wireless access (FWA), cable TV access, test and measurement (T&M), satellite communications, phased-array radar/digital array radar (DAR), and other high-performance RF applications.
