Avnet 5G mmWave Platform
Avnet-Fujikura-AMD 5G mmWave Phased Array Antenna Module Development Platform
Avnet and Fujikura have created a leading edge 5G FR2 phased array antenna development platform for mmWave frequency bands. This platform enables developers to quickly create and prototype advanced 5G mmWave systems using AMD Xilinx’s Zynq®️ UltraScale+™️ RFSoC Gen3 and Fujikura’s FutureAcess™️ Phased Array Antenna Module (PAAM). Developers are able to configure and control the digital and RF settings using Avnet’s proven RFSoC Explorer®️ software. This combination of leading-edge components and software allows developers to quickly prototype with Fujikura’s compact PAAM and AMD Xilinx’s RFSoC. By creating a highly flexible, integrated development platform targeting 5G systems, both Avnet and Fujikura are seeking to simplify prototyping and development by integrating key elements of a 5G system from RF to baseband.
The PAAM platform consists of the Fujikura PAAM daughtercard, the AMD ZC208 EVK, and the Avnet RFSoC Explorer MATLAB application. It is available for order now.
