Xilinx's new RFSoC brings a powerful and unique solution for addressing some of the most demanding applications. This paper provides a look at how RFSoC compares to the current trends in A/D and D/A converters and how to get most performance out of this new family of FPGAs.

"The latest SDR modules offer SoC solutions with integrated I/O, ARM processors and FPGAs. Combining these attributes with superior signal integrity, phase-coherent sampling and multi-channel transceivers a COTS SDR system is an ideal choice for a 5G development platform. This article will familiarize the user with SDR using a multi-purpose COTS platform to reduce the time to market."
