SOSA Aligned 8-Channel A/D & D/A 3U VPX Board

The Quartz® Model 5553 is a high-performance, SOSA-aligned 3U OpenVPX board based on the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC. The RFSoC integrates eight RF class A/D and D/A converters into the Zynq’s multiprocessor architecture, creating a multichannel data conversion and processing solution on a single chip. The Model 5553 brings RFSoC performance to 3U VPX with a complete system on a board.

Complementing the RFSoC’s on-chip resources are the 5553’s sophisticated clocking section for single board and multiboard synchronization, a low-noise front end for RF input and output, 16 GBytes of DDR4, a 10 GigE interface, a 40 GigE interface, a gigabit serial optical interface capable of supporting dual 100 GigE connections and general purpose serial and parallel signal paths to the FPGA.
