Description
PanaTeQ’s VPX3-VERSA2-MxFE4 is a 3U VPX OpenVPX/SOSA module based on the VERSAL Prime Adaptive SoC device from AMD and one AD9084 Apollo MxFE device from Analog Devices for a broad range of applications such as Software Defined Radio, MILCOM, massive MIMO, Phase Array Radar and Electronic Warfare.
The AD9084 mixed signal front-end (MxFE®) is a highly inte-grated device with a 16-bit, 28 GSPS maximum sample rate, RF digital-to-analog converter (DAC) core, and 12-bit, 20 GSPS maximum sample rate, RF analog-to-digital converter (ADC) core. The AD9084 supports four transmit channels and four receive channels.
The AD9084 is well suited for applications requiring both wide-band ADCs and DACs to process signal(s) having wide instan-taneous bandwidth.
The AD9084 are well suited for applications requiring both wide-band ADCs and DACs to process signal(s) having wide instan-taneous bandwidth.
These devices features a 48 lane, 32.5 Gbps JESD204C or 20 Gbps JESD204B data transceiver port, an on-chip clock multiplier, and a digital signal processing (DSP) capability targeted at either wideband or multiband, direct to RF applications.
The AD9084 also features a bypass mode that allows the full bandwidth capability of the ADC and/or DAC cores to bypass the DSP datapaths
The VERSAL Prime integrates a Dual-core ARM Cortex-A72 based Application Processing Unit (APU), a Dual-core ARM Cortex-R5F based Real-Time Processing Unit (RPU), DSP Engines and a large Programmable Logic (PL) in a single device. It also includes on-chip memory, external memory interfaces, and a rich set of peripheral connectivity interfaces.
The board can be ordered with different versions of the VERSAL family of devices, coupled up to 4 or 8GB 64-bit DDR4-3200 Processing Memory with 8-bit ECC.
2GB 32-bit of LPDDR4-2133 is also available as the Programmable Logic Memory, allowing data streaming applications such as video CODEC and signal processing. 256GB of soldered eMMC managed NAND Flash is available for local data storage.
The VPX3-VERSA2 uses advanced DC/DC power modules from Linear Technology using PMBus and PanaTeQ’s Smart Power Management technology.
The board can act as a Single Board Computer in the VPX system. When the VPX3-VERSA2 is System Controller, there is no need to add any SBC in the VPX System, improving Size, Weight, Power and Cost (SWaP-C).
A large number of the peripherals are available on the VPX backplane: 1x ETH 1000Base-T, 1x USB 2.0, 4x RS-232 or 2x Full-Duplex RS-422, 16x GPIOs, 2x CAN-FD.
