The AFE8128 evaluation modules (EVMs) are evaluation boards used to evaluate the AFE812x family of integrated RF Sampling transceivers from Texas Instruments. The AFE8128 devices support up to eight transmit, eight receive, and two feedback channels (8T8R2F). The devices integrate the phase-locked loop (PLL) and voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) for generating data converter clocks.
Funciones
- LMK04828 clock generator IC to provide reference clocks and SYSREF to the analog front end (AFE) and capture card (field-programmable gate array, FPGA)
- SMA port to connect a clock input and synchronize the LMK frequencies to an external reference from instruments like signal generators and spectrum analyzers
- External clocking options for external reference clock signal support for the on-chip PLL
