X-Band Phased Array Platform Kit availability and ordering

Category: Hardware
Product Number: x-band

What is the availability of the X-Band Phased Array Platform Kit? Is there a top level part number that the entire kit can be ordered from, or do individual parts need to be procured separately? I can only find information on the AD9081-FMCA-EBZ from suppliers.

  • Hi Liam, 

    There is not a top level part as we want to enabled multiple architectures through mixing & matching boards. There is a "shopping list" to replicate the hybrid beamforming architecture that the ADI team has implemented. This shopping cart can be found on the Analog.com Product Page under System Requirements. There is also a Wiki Page User Guide detailing the necessary hardware required for replication. Lastly, the Buy Tab of the product page will provide pricing and point of contact for lead times. 

    Regards,

  •  Hi Sam,

    I'm also trying to purchase the x-band kit. I am having troubling finding any information on the availability (or lack thereof) of the ADAR1000EVAL1Z, ADAR1000EVAL1Z-ANT, and ADXUD1AEBZ parts. I've contacted ADI customer support, mouser, digikey, and arrow, but no one seems to stock the parts or have lead times. Are they discontinued?

    Thanks,

    Patrick

  • Hi Patrick, 

    The boards are still available and the Product Page is up to date. I apologize you have not heard a response from ADI customer support. I will contact you outside of this forum to resolve the issue.

  • Thanks for the quick response, Sam. I see that the parts are listed w/ prices requires contacting distributors for inventory/quotes (see above). I should clarify that customer service did respond and stated they didn't see any stock and recommended to contact a distributor and place the order on backorder. I'll try that recommendation tomorrow. 

    Thanks for the help,

    Patrick
