About

The Zipper Interface Board is designed to allow any Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) development system supporting the High-Speed Mezzanine Card (HSMC) or FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) standards to be connected to the Myriad-RF 1 to form the Reference Development Kit. The combination of the Zipper and Myriad-RF 1 boards provides a low-cost universal radio development platform, based on the flexible, multi-standard Field Programmable Radio Frequency (FPRF) LMS6002D device. It enables developers to implement their products for a wide variety of wireless communication applications efficiently.
