A high-performance RF signal processing platform based on AMD Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC
Overview
The AXW47 development board is a high-performance RF signal processing platform based on AMD Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC. It features 8 RF-ADC channels with up to 5 GSPS sampling and 8 RF-DAC channels with up to 9.85 GSPS sampling. Designed for applications in wireless communications, radar systems, and test and measurement, it offers rich peripheral interfaces including USB, Ethernet, and fiber optics.
Product Description
The AXW47 development board adopts the Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC Gen3 series XCZU47DR FPGA chip, integrating RF direct sampling data converters, FPGA logic, a complete ARM processor subsystem, and high-speed 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 input/output interfaces are designed for frequency bands up to 6 GHz.
This provides a comprehensive RF signal chain, maximizing I/O channel density with high bandwidth, heterogeneous processing capabilities, and low power consumption. The carrier board expands an AMD XCKU115 pure-logic FPGA for backend data processing acceleration.
It meets the requirements of applications including 5G wireless infrastructure, cable TV access, test and measurement, satellite communications, phased-array radar/digital array radar, and other high-performance RF scenarios.
