Description
Models 57690 and 58690 are members of the Cobalt® family of high-performance 6U OpenVPX boards based on the Xilinx Virtex-6 FPGA. They consist of one or two Model 71690 XMC modules mounted on a VPX carrier board. Model 57690 is a 6U board with one Model 71690 module while the Model 58690 is a 6U board with two XMC modules rather than one. These models include one ot two L-Band RF tuners, two or four A/Ds and four or eight banks of memory.
Features
• One or two L-Band tuners accept RF signals from 925 MHz to 2175 MHz
• One or two programmable LNAs boost LNB (low-noise block) antenna signal levels with up to 60 dB gain
• One or two programmable analog downconverters provide I + Q baseband signals with bandwidths
• ranging from 4 to 40 MHz
• Two or four 200 MHz 16-bit A/Ds
• Supports Xilinx Virtex-6 LXT and SXT FPGAs
• Up to 2 or 4 GB of DDR3 SDRAM; or: 32 MB or 64MB of QDRII+ SRAM
• PCI Express (Gen. 1 & 2) interface up to x8
• Optional user-configurable gigabit serial interface
• Optional LVDS connections to the Virtex-6 FPGA for custom I/O
• Ruggedized and conduction cooled versions available
