The Red Pitaya SDRlab 122.88-16 Standard Kit contains the basic components to start developing high-precision RF SDR applications with the Red Pitaya STEMLab 122.88-16 board. The board carries two 16-bit ADCs, 50-ohm inputs & 14-bit DACs with 50-ohm outputs, and features a powerful dual-core ARM® Cortex® A9 and Xilinx Zynq 7020 FPGA MCU. Clocked at 122.88 MHz, it is capable of ultra-low phase noise and has high hardware compatibility with high-performance SDR (HPSDR). It has also been rigorously tested for reduced distortions, noise & crosstalk, along with improved dynamic range & sensitivity, which will make it easy to build high-end RF applications.
