AMD Introduces Versal RF Series Adaptive SoCs Offering the Industry’s Highest Compute in a Single-Chip Device with Integrated Direct RF-Sampling Converters :: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD)
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Dec. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announced the expansion of the AMD Versal™ adaptive system-on-chip (SoC) portfolio with the introduction of the Versal RF Series that includes the industry’s highest compute performance in a single-chip device with integrated direct radio frequency (RF)-sampling data converters.1
Versal RF Series offers precise, wideband-spectrum observability and up to 80 TOPS of digital signal processing (DSP) performance2 in a size, weight, and power (SWaP)-optimized design, targeting RF systems and test equipment applications in the aerospace and defense (A&D) and test and measurement (T&M) markets, respectively.
Building on the success of the existing AMD Zynq™ RFSoC devices, the highly integrated Versal RF Series heterogeneous computing solution is the 5th generation of AMD direct RF devices and the industry’s first to combine high-resolution RF data converters, hard IP DSP compute blocks and AI Engines for DSP, along with adaptive SoC programmable logic and an Arm® subsystem in a monolithically integrated, single-chip device.
“Today’s advanced RF systems require high resolution and high sample-rate RF data converters that use massive amounts of DSP compute resources to process data quickly and adapt to changing requirements, shifting workloads and mission profiles,” said Salil Raje, senior vice president and general manager, Adaptive and Embedded Computing Group, AMD. “AMD Versal RF Series adaptive SoCs meet these requirements in a single chip, offering leadership RF-sampling resolution and more DSP compute than multiple SoCs combined.”3
