Electra-MA Evaluation Board (MX2)
The MX2 is the latest generation evaluation board for the Jariet 2T2R 64GSPS Electra-MA RF Transceiver. The MX2 daughter card supports evaluation of the Electra-MA device from 100MHz to 36GHz with high performance RF connectors for the ADC and DAC inputs and outputs. The RF connectivity expects differential signal inputs and outputs, supporting a wide range of commercially available laboratory quality RF baluns to be connected to the RF side of the evaluation board. On the digital side, an FMC+ connector provides 16 JESD204C SerDes transceivers to connect to commercially available FPGA FMC+ carrier boards. It supports multi-board synchronization and is powered from a single 6V DC supply.
Software control of Electra-MA is provided in a Windows GUI through an Ethernet port. Jariet provides the firmware necessary to operate the board with the AMD Xilinx Virtex Ultrascale+ EVK (EK-U1-VCU128-ES1-G) that features 8GB of integrated HBM, multiple external memory interfaces and 460GB/s of HBM bandwidth.
