Model 7070-317 FlexorSet 8-Channel 250 MHz A/D with DDCs, Virtex-7 FPGA - PCIe

Eletter Product

The FlexorSet Model 7070-317 is a PCIe carrier combined with Flexor Model 3316 8-Channel A/D FMC module that contains Pentek's eight channel digital down converter (DDC) intellectual property (IP), which is ideally matched to the eight 250 MHz, 16-bit A/Ds on the FMC.

Each DDC has an independent 32-bit tuning frequency ranging from DC to the A/D sampling frequency. Each DDC can have its own unique decimation setting, supporting as many as eight different outputbandwidths. Decimations can be programmed from 2 to 65,536 providing a wide range to satisfy virtually all applications.

Bundling for Seamless Integration
The Model 7070-317 FlexorSet comes pre-configured with a suite of built-in functions for data capture, synchronization, time tagging and formatting, all tailored and optimized for the FMC and carrier. This IP enables high performance capture and delivery of data to provide an ideal turn-key signal interface for radar, communications or general data acquisition applications, eliminating the integration effort typically left for the user when integrating the FMC and carrier.

Development Tools and Software Support
FlexorSet presents system integrators with an ideal development and deployment platform for custom IP. The Pentek GateFlow® FPGA design kit gives users access to the complete factory installed IP at the source level, allowing them to extend or even replace the built-in functions.

The Pentek GateXpress® PCIe configuration manager supports dynamic FPGA reconfiguration though software commands as part of the run-time application. This provides an efficient way to quickly reload the FPGA, which slashes development time during testing. For deployed environments, GateXpress enables reloading the FPGA without the need to reset the host system, ideal for applications that require dynamic access to multiple processing IP algorithms.

The Pentek ReadyFlow® Board Support Package is available for Windows and Linux operating systems. The ReadyFlow C-callable library contains a complete suite of initialization, control and status functions, as well as a rich set of precompiled, ready-to-run-examples, accelerate application development.
