Technical Overview

The SABER MaX’s™ substantial digital processing power is aided by the Kintex FPGA and Zynq SOC, which prioritize flexibility without adding cost. The Kintex FPGA can be upgraded a larger scale to support as many as 48 ADCs.

SABER MaX’s™ I/O architecture and FMC socket usage enables numerous board configurations to fit many specifications. 6 FMC connectors provide interfaces for COTS high speed ADC and DAC mezzanine boards, with up to 24 ADCs (14-bit, max 1.25 GS/s) supported in the base model.

Utilization of the SABER MaX™ GUI can be viewed through any local PC via Ethernet, USB, or Serial connectivity. These sets of GUIs provide visualization for the consumer to observe SABER MaX’s™ system performance and output, and grant them the ability to adjust according to their needs.
