Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC Modules

Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC

The Industry’s Only
Single-Chip Adaptable Radio Platform

Integration of RF Analog

The monolithic integration of direct RF-sampling data converters onto an adaptive SoC eliminates the need for external data converters, enabling a flexible solution with up to 50% reduced power and footprint over a multi-component solution–including the elimination of the power-hungry FPGA-to-Analog interfaces like JESD204. This approach also enables a highly flexible solution, moving much of the RF signal processing into the digital domain.

SD-FEC

Zynq™ UltraScale+™ RFSoC integrates a soft-decision forward error-correction cores (SD-FEC) IP block with low-density parity checking (LDPC) and turbo codec support. The hardened cores delivers over 1Gb/s of performance at low latency, as well as lower power and smaller area than soft logic implementations.

Hardened Digital Front-End

Zynq RFSoC DFE is the latest adaptive RFSoC platform that integrates more hardened IP than soft logic for critical DFE processing. Enabling a flexible solution for 5G New Radio, Zynq RFSoC DFE operates up to 7.125GHz of input/output frequency with power-efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Hardware Adaptability

The Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC architecture integrates FPGA fabric for flexibility to meet a wide range of requirements with the same foundational hardware. The ability to leverage the same platform to address diverse requirements and emerging standards allows vendors to react quickly to new market opportunities.

Complete SoC for Single-Chip Radio

As a heterogeneous compute architecture that includes a full Arm processing subsystem, FPGA fabric, and complete analog/digital programmability across the RF signal chain, Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoCs provides a complete, single chip software-defined radio platform for diverse applications, and the ability to produce radio variants as market dynamics evolve.
