AMD / Xilinx Virtex®-7 FPGA VC7222 Characterization Kit
AMD / Xilinx Virtex®-7 FPGA VC7222 Characterization Kit provides the hardware environment for characterizing and evaluating the GTH and GTZ transceivers available on the AMD / Xilinx Virtex-7 XC7VH580T-G2HCG1155E FPGA. This can be done while allowing evaluation of the Integrated Bit Error Ratio Test (IBERT) demonstration using the Vivado® Design Suite. Each GTH and GTZ Quad and its associated reference clock are routed from the FPGA to SMA and Samtec BullsEye connector. A cable containing a BullsEye connector and standard SMA connectors allows users to connect to a broad range of evaluation platforms, from backplanes and optical evaluation boards to high-speed test equipment. Each BullsEye connector handles a full GTH or GTZ Quad, four transmit/receive pairs, enabling the highest level of flexibility in testing custom applications.Features
