The CommAgility AMC-V7 is a high performance FPGA-based interface and processing card in the extremely compact Advanced Mezzanine Card form factor. It is powered by a high-density Xilinx Virtex-7 FPGA, and ideal for LTE wireless front-end applica-tions requiring multiple CPRI links at up to rate option 8 (20x, 10.138Gbps line rate).
SRIO V2.1 at up to 20Gbps per port is supported by an IDT CPS-1848 Serial RapidIO switch. The board provides three front panel SFP+ optical interfaces that provide flexible high-speed links, and are configurable as CPRI, OBSAI, GigE, SRIO or other standards. Alternatively, one SFP+ and one SRIO mini-SAS connector offer up to 30 Gbps of front panel I/O. Timing and synchronisation is achieved via GPS, the front panel or backplane clock I/O, and no additional timing equipment is required which significantly reduces system complexity.
