Tekmicro Orion-V5 VXS and Triton-V5 Digital to Analog Converters

Posted by Ken Cheung in FPGA-based Product on Friday, April 17, 2009

The Orion-V5 VXS and Triton-V5 are the latest members of TEK Microsystems’ QuiXilica-V5 VXS Family. The Orion-V5 VXS features two 12-bit digital to analog converter (DAC) channels each operating at up to 3.0 Gsps (Gigasamples per second). The Triton-V5 features one 10-bit, 2.2 Gsps analog to digital converter (ADC) channel with one 12-bit, 3.0 Gsps DAC channel. The ANSI/VITA 41 (VME/VXS) compliant 6U high-speed digitizer boards combine high density FPGA processing with ultimate ADC and DAC performance to provide unprecedented capability for developers who need ultra wide band signal generation. Both the Orion-V5 VXS and Triton-V5 are available now, with delivery from stock to 8 weeks ARO.

Orion-V5 Multi-channel DAC

  • Two 12-bit DAC output channels each performing at up to 3.0+ Gsps combined with three Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGAs
  • Up to 2,336 DSP slices with 1.3 TeraMAC/s of signal processing power
  • Each DAC is matched to an FPGA, leaving the third FPGA available for additional channel processing or system control functions
  • Sample-accurate synchronization for multiple channels across an entire chassis
  • Non-interpolating Euvis MD653D has a bandwidth of 4 GHz
  • DAC output is AC coupled and may be single-ended or differential
  • Available for a wide range of operating environments, including commercial grade, rugged air and conduction cooled

Triton-V5 ADC DAC

  • One 10-bit 2.2 Gsps ADC channel co-located with one 12-bit DAC performing at up to 3.0 Gsps combined with three Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGAs
  • Based on QuiXilica-V5 VXS carrier board architecture
  • Up to 2,336 DSP slices with 1.3 TeraMAC/s of signal processing power
  • Ultra low latency from acquisition to response that is critical in jamming and RADAR decoy applications
  • ADC and DAC can use a common clock, which can be synchronized across multiple boards, or independent clocks, depending on the specific application requirements
  • Uses the E2V AT84AS008 ADC
  • Non-interpolating Euvis MD653D has a bandwidth of 4 GHz
  • Available for a wide range of operating environments, including commercial grade, rugged air and conduction cooled
