ZRF16-NT: AMD
Zynq® UltraScale+™ RFSoC  / Networking Platform
      

The ZRF16-NT platform is a powerful combination of a optical networking card and an FPGA-based System-on-Module (SOM), purpose-built for next-generation RF and high-speed data processing applications. Centered on the AMD Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC architecture, this solution tightly integrates multi-gigasample ADCs, high-speed DACs, programmable logic, and embedded processing cores into a single, compact design.

By merging RF data conversion and digital processing into one cohesive platform, this solution eliminates the need for multiple discrete components, significantly simplifying system design while improving performance and efficiency.

Designed for rapid deployment and long-term scalability, the ZRF16-NT platform enables engineers to move seamlessly from prototyping to production. Its high-bandwidth optical  interfaces ensure  fast data transfer to other systems, while the reconfigurable FPGA fabric and embedded processors provide the flexibility needed for evolving algorithms and demanding real-time workloads.

The base carrier board with five high-performance expansion slots can be re-used to host different compatible plug-in modules.

Key Advantages

   - Reduced System Complexity
     RF front-end, data converters, FPGA fabric, and embedded processing are consolidated into a single module, minimizing board space, interconnects, and design risk.

   - Accelerated Development
    The ready-to-integrate PCIe form factor streamlines system integration, allowing developers to significantly shorten design cycles and focus on application-level  
    innovation.

   - Scalable Architecture
    From early-stage prototyping to full-scale deployment, the platform supports a wide range of use cases without requiring major hardware redesigns.

   - High Throughput & Low Latency
    Optimized for real-time signal processing, the platform delivers exceptional data bandwidth and deterministic performance for demanding RF applications.

Ideal Applications

   - 5G / 6G wireless infrastructure and prototyping
   - Radar and electronic warfare systems
   - Software-defined radio (SDR)
   - Test and measurement equipment
   - Satellite communications and beam forming
