Agilex™ 9 Direct RF-Series AGRW027 Development Kit

Altera

The Agilex™ 9 Direct RF-Series AGRW027 Development Kit is a comprehensive platform designed for high-performance FPGA development, specifically targeting applications with wideband RF requirements supporting a range of 0.1 to 36GHz. This kit integrates the AGRW027 SoC FPGA and showcases the high-performance wideband data converters and high-speed interfaces. It supports eight 10-bit ADC/DAC channels with sample rates up to 64GSPS, making it ideal for advanced signal processing, radar, EW, and high-bandwidth secure communication systems.

The kit features a rich set of peripherals including two PCIe Gen4 x4 slots, QSFP28 and QSFPDD ports for up to 400 GbE connectivity, and SFP+ ports for 10 GbE. It includes clock generation and synchronization to support precise timing and RF signal integrity. With support for JESD204C interfaces and a robust Board Test System (BTS) GUI for diagnostics and configuration, this development kit empowers engineers to rapidly p...
