WHQMB1

Overview

WILD WHQMB1 ADC & DAC HSS Apollo MxFE Card

The WILD WHQMB1 ADC & DAC HSS from Annapolis Micro Systems is optimised for JESD-based ADCs and DACs.

It integrates Analog Devices Apollo wideband AD9084 Mixed-Signal Front End (MxFE™) ADCs/DACs. Quad-channel 12-bit ADCs run at up to 20GSps, and quad-channel 16-bit DACs run at up to 28GSps. Double the channel count by utilizing two Cards on a 6U Baseboard.

This high-bandwidth COTS ADC and DAC Card is designed for high-performance applications, including Software Defined Radio (SDR), Radar, and Electronic Warfare.
