Summary
The Q8 SDR (Software-Defined Radio) Dock is a daughterboard for Xiphos’ Q8 hybrid processor card. The Q8 SDR Dock allows the integration of a GOMspace NanoCom TR-600 SDR module, which is based on Analog Devices’ popular AD9361 wideband transceiver RF System on a Chip (RFSoC).
The Q8 SDR Dock daughtercard offers the following key features:
- Interface to GOMspace NanoCom TR-600 SDR module
- PPS, CANBUS, serial, UART (LVDS), USB interfaces
- Power interfaces (+5V, +12V)
The high-performance processing and massive FPGA resources of the Q8 allow the development of advanced SDR algorithms for space broadband, IoT and RF sensing applications.
