An FMC (FPGA Mezzanine Card) per VITA 57 for high-speed networking has been released by VadaTech. Alongside quad SFP/SFP+ transceivers for 10GbE in copper or fibre formats, the FMC109 features four re-timers, which provide tuning for the Tx and Rx signals.

The re-timer ICs provide input equalisation, clock and data recovery, and output de-emphasis. This also allows for the use of longer copper cables as the distortion is cleaned across the farther distances. 

In addition to the FMC109, VadaTech has introduced an eight-channel ADC with10-bit at 2.6 GSPS performance. The board also features a single DAC, 14-bit at 2.8 GSPS. For high performance and processing efficiency, the ATC136 features a Virtex-7 FPGA and a four-core PowerPC.

Alongside a 64-bit DDR3 memory on the FPGA and a PowerPC, the ADC is offered with Flash memory and a Removable MicroSD card. The front panel ports include eight SMA, JTAG, dual RJ-45, Clock-In/Sync Out and dual MicroUSB.
