RFX 881 + 771

Direct RF Cards with Built-in Up/Down Conversion, Amplification, and Filtering

Analog: 5 GSPS 14-bit ADCs, 9.7 GSPS 14-bit DACs w/Optional Nyquist Zone Filter and Up to 35 GHz Up/Down Conversion

Digital: Up to 400 Gb/s I/O (RFX 881) or PCIe Gen4 x8x8 (RFX 771)

Mix, Amplify, and Digitize All in One

Integrated into a single card you can have up/down mixing (up to 35 GHz), amplifiers and filters for first/second/third Nyquist, and the powerful AMD RFSoC direct RF chip

With RFX, You've got Options

At the heart of RFX products is the revolutionary AMD RFSoC chip, giving you a range of advantages over discreet systems. However, BittWare has leveraged our analog and digital design heritage to bring you more than expected from a typical RF card:

  • Direct sampling between 50 MHz and 6 GHz
  • Built-in amplifier/filter options to target first, second, or third Nyquist zones on a per channel basis
  • Built-in down/up convert up to 35 GHz
  • Wideband options to bypass the filtering/amplifiers and mixer per channel
  • Up to 400 Gb/s digital I/O with options for PCIe- or QSFP-focused architectures
  • Modular build options for our WaveBox RF servers
  • Standalone (with QSFP I/O) or as PCIe card

Powered by 3rd Gen AMD Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC

RFX cards and modules are built around the powerful AMD RFSoC devices. We bring analog signals in, but it’s the direct RF chip approach that packs so much analog and digital functionality that many racks of previous equipment are no longer necessary!

  • 通过消除JESD204接口来降低功率
  • Smaller physical space
  • Programmable (FPGA) logic for diverse requirements and emerging standards
  • Built-in ARM processing lets you do more in a standalone deployment

Designed for WaveBox

The RFX 881 and RFX 771 are designed as standalone cards or as PCIe cards in servers. We recommend the WaveBox family of enclosures and servers for the optimum mix of features and the advantage of purchasing an integrated system. Learn more on the WaveBox product page.

Where RFX Fits

At the heart of RFX cards and modules is the AMD RFSoC chip. It combines many of the traditionally discreet RF analog and digital components into a compact, configurable device. Applications including Satcom and test/measurement can benefit from these revolutionary devices.

But with RFX we’ve gone further–bringing to the PCIe form factor optional mixers, amplifiers, and filters. The RFX is configurable too, with up to four inputs/outputs and first/second/third Nyquist filters. Mixer options up to 35 GHz give you up/down conversion all in a single card or module.

Analog Mixing, Amplification, and Filtering Options

On-Card ADCs, DACs, and Mixer

These cards allow you to choose your preference of ADC/DAC channels, with up to eight total in any combination (contact us for pricing and configuration details).

We also have an optional on-card up/down mixer supporting conversions up to 35 GHz. An output option for additional amplification is also available. See the diagrams for details:
