The Arrow High-Speed Data Acquisition Kit is a complete development platform for creating solutions which incorporate the space-saving high-speed GSPS JESD204B serial interface.
It features Analog Devices’ GSPS data converters and Intel’s Arria 10 FPGA communicating across 4 serial lanes at speeds up to 40GSPS, and includes all of the timing and power components required to both develop solutions and demonstrate the capabilities of JESD204B.
With sampling speeds of up to 1GSPS, this is the ideal platform for applications requiring the capturing and transportation of large amounts of data. A one-year license for all IP and tools is included so that the user can begin development immediately.

Please note: This is NOT the complete kit. We will be getting ADI's FMC Board in stock soon, so please check back soon to get the complete kit!
ADI’s FMC Board: AD-FMCDAQ2-EBZ
Figure 1: Front of the AD-FMCDAQ2-EBZ module.
The AD-FMCDAQ2-EBZ module is a high-speed Digital-to-Analog Converter and an Analog-to-Digital Converter that provides high-performance data acquisition. It is designed to be self-sufficient meaning no clocking and no external power supply or signal generator. ADI has also provided the HDL code, the software driver, the Operating System, and the GUI.
