The vi716 is a COTS integration combining the power of an Altera Stratix® V FPGA and Texas Instruments KeyStone Multicore DSP openVPX carrier (VF360) with a 16 channel DAC board – FMC216
Key points of the DAC module:
- 16 channel 16-bit 312.5 Msps D/A conversion
- Conduction cooled compatible
- ANSI/VITA 57.1-2010 compliant
- Based on DAC39J84
- 1.5V to 3.3V VADJ operation
- Single ended DC coupled outputs
- Programmable DC offset correction
- Flexible clock tree enables
- External or Internal clock
- External clock output
- External or internal reference
- HPC (high-pin count) compatible
- A breakout cable on the front panel makes all clock and trigger signals available on individual coax cables.
- MIL-I-46058c conformal coating (optional)
