XMC module for defence and radar systems

21 March 2018 Computer/Embedded Technology

Pentek introduced the newest member of the Jade family of high-performance data converter XMC modules based on the Xilinx Kintex Ultrascale FPGA.

The Model 71132 is an XMC module featuring eight 250 MHz, 16-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADC) with eight wideband digital down converters (DDCs) and 64 multiband DDCs, all fully programmable.

The board doubles the number of ADC channels and DDCs over previous models, giving this the best price per channel ratio in the product family. Applications monitoring a broad spectrum with a need to quickly analyse specific portions of the identified spectrum can benefit from the capabilities of the 71132. Such applications include defence and radar phased-array systems.

Factory-installed functions include eight ADC acquisition IP modules, each containing nine DDCs. In each module, the wideband DDC supports decimations from 2 to 32 for capturing signal bandwidths up to 100 MHz. The eight narrowband DDCs allow decimations up to 1024 for signal bandwidths down to 200 kHz. These two types of DDCs operating in parallel are ideal for applications that need to monitor a wide spectrum, but quickly tune to identified frequency bands of interest for further analysis.

The Navigator FPGA Design Kit (FDK) includes a wealth of Pentek IP library modules so customers can easily add custom IP to support specific needs.
