The VPX599 provides dual-channel ADC with sample rates of up to 6.4 GSPS at 12-bits and a dual DAC update rate of up to 12 GSPS and direct RF synthesis at 6 GSPS at 16-bits making it suitable for signal capture/analysis applications such as COMINT/SIGINT, radar, research and instrumentation.
The unit has an on-board Kintex UltraScale™ XCKU115 FPGA which interfaces directly to ADC/DAC. The FPGA has interface to two banks of 64-bit wide DDR4 memory channels with a total of 16 GB memory.
The module routes to the P1/P2 connectors Quad GbE, x16 high speed SERDES that could be configured as PCIe/SRIO/40GbE/10GbE/Aurora, GPIO, etc. The module has an on board dedicated health management
CPU which complies with the OpenVPX standard.
The unit is available in a range of temperature and shock/vib specifications per ANSI/VITA-47, up to V3 and OS2.
