Direct RF-Series devices integrate FPGAs and industry-leading high-performance wideband data converters and medium-band data converters with hi-fidelity performance. These Direct RF SoC FPGAs use Intel 10 nm SuperFin process technology, Quad-core Arm processors, ultra-low converter interface latency, transceiver rates up to 58 Gbps, and provide high channel density packages to address difficult size, weight, and power constraints.
Benefits
High-Performance Wideband Frequency Agility
Multi-channel converters with an RF bandwidth of 36 GHz and an instantaneous RF bandwidth of 32 GHz provide the ability to retune receivers and transmitters quickly while providing simultaneous wideband and narrowband tracking.
Low Latency and Power Consumption
Embedded Multi-die Interconnect Bridge (EMIB) and Advanced Interconnect Bus (AIB) tile interconnect technology to integrate RF-capable ADCs and DACs with Agilex™ 9 FPGA monolithic die. With programmable hardened IP, provide low latency and power consumption when converting between the analog and digital domains.
Total Cost of Ownership and Risk
These devices significantly impact the system-level size and cost (eliminating a substantial amount of external analog circuitry, associated power supplies, cooling, and chassis). This integrated and digital solution increases system reliability, which lowers system costs. An RF tool chain integrated into Quartus® Prime Software will lower risk and time to market.
