The FMC238 is a FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) per VITA 57.1 standard, offering small footprint and low power fully featured dual wideband transceivers.

The FMC238 utilizes single ADR9009. The ADRV9009 is a highly integrated, wideband radio frequency transceiver offering dual channel transmitters (TX) and receivers (RX) with integrated synthesizer, and digital signal processing functions. Each complete Rx and Tx subsystem includes dc offset correction, Quadrature Error Correction (QEC), and programmable digital filters.

The ADRV9009 further provides automatic gain control (AGC) and flexible external gain control modes, allowing significant flexibility in setting system level gain dynamically.

The FMC238 operates within the 75 MHz to 6.0 GHz frequency range, covering most licensed and unlicensed bands. The clocking is via the front panel or an internal clock. The FMC238 is an ideal choice for the development and/or deployment of advanced RF solutions. This Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) module is the most versatile FMC in the market.
