AFE7700EVM RF Transceiver Evaluation Module (EVM)

Texas Instruments AFE7700EVM RF Transceiver Evaluation Module (EVM) is a board used to evaluate the AFE7700 integrated RF transceiver. AFE7700 supports up to four-transmit, four-receive, and two feedback channels (4T4R2F). The device also integrates phase-locked loops (PLLs) and voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) for a generation of data-converter clocks and local oscillator (LO), with LO frequency tunable from 600MHz to 6GHz. This evaluation module incorporates RF baluns to specifically support 600MHz to 2700MHz. The AFE7700 product integrates eight JESD204B/C-compatible serializer/deserializer (SerDes) transceivers capable of running up to 29.5Gbps to transmit and receive digital data through the onboard FPGA mezzanine card (FMC) connector.
