The ICS-1650 four-channel high-speed A/D converter is designed for demanding applications such as software-defined radio, diagnostic imaging, radar, and signal intelligence and features four 12-bit channels with simultaneous sampling rates of up to 250 MHz. The card’s four-lane PCI Express interface yields up to 1.25-Gbyte/s payload data rate.

Signal processing power is provided by a user-programmable Virtex-5 FPGA, while digital down-conversion (DDC) functionality is optionally provided via a Graychip GC5016 ASIC; 16 MBytes of QDR II SRAM memory is provided for buffering or scratchpad use
