Page 5: General Description
The FMC30RF is an FMC Daughter Card which is fully compliant with the VITA 57.1-2010 standard. The FMC30RF offers in a small footprint a low power and fully featured Rx/Tx signal path for the development and deployment of advanced RF solutions. With a frequency range coverage from 400MHz to 3.0GHz (two ranges) and up to 60MHz bandwidth the FMC30RF... -
Page 6: Phycisal Specifications
The FMC30RF card uses a mix of LVDS and LVCMOS signals. According to the FMC standard VADJ should be +2.5V to support LVDS, but the FMC30RF is designed to accept any level on VADJ ranging between 1.65V and 5.5V. VIO_B_M2C connections are connected to VADJ on the FMC30RF. -

4.2.2 JTAG The FMC30RF card TDO pin is connected to the TDI pin (through an SN74LVC1G126 buffer) to ensure continuity of the JTAG chain. TCK, TMS and TRST are left unconnected on the FMC30RF. - Page 8 FMC30RF User Manual r1.3 Guidelines of controlling tuneable gain and attenuators are provided in section 6. The maximum input level at the RF input is +3dBm and can be applied to the board when the total gain of the analog line-up is set to minimum. This is done by:...

PRI_REF CDCE62005 REF IN Figure 5: Signal Path 5.1 Time-Division Duplex (TDD) The FMC30RF supports TDD using the RF I/O connector. The RF I/O connector is either receiving (TRX_SWITCH_CTRL=0) transmitting (TRX_SWITCH_CTRL=1). TRX_SWITCH_CTRL signal should be driven by the FPGA trough the FMC connector. -
