ADC510 Dual Channel Analog Input FMC
The ADC510 enables integration of dual channels of analog input into embedded computing systems. The innovative design of the ADC510, based on the emerging VITA 57 standard, makes it easier for developers to integrate FPGAs and analog input into their embedded system designs. Typical DSP applications for this module include Signal Intelligence (SIGINT), Electronic Counter Measures (ECM), and Radar.
The ADC510 is a dual-channel 500/550 MSPS analog input FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) based on the VITA 57 specification. This specification allows I/O devices to be directly coupled to a host FPGA. On the ADC510, the two ADC devices connect through the FMC site to an FPGA-based host board, maximizing data throughput and minimizing latency.
