The AFE8192 and AFE8190 evaluation modules (EVMs) are evaluation boards used to evaluate the AFE81xx family of integrated RF Sampling transceivers.
The AFE81xx devices support up to 16 transmit, 16 receive and four feedback channels (16T16R4F). The devices integrate the phase-locked loop (PLL) and voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) for generating data converter clocks. The AFE81xx device integrates 16 JESD204B/C-compatible serializer/deserializer (SerDes) transceivers capable of running up to 32Gbps in NRZ to transmit and receive digital data.
Features
- LMK04828 clock generator IC to provide reference clocks and SYSREF to the analog front end (AFE) and capture card (field-programmable gate array, FPGA)
- SMA port to connect a clock input and synchronize the LMK frequencies to an external reference from instruments like signal generators and spectrum analyzers
- External clocking options for external reference clock signal support for the on-chip PLL
