FMC, AD9361

Question

Do the AD9361 boards (such as the AD-FMCOMMS3-EBZ), fit on the Zynq Mini-ITX FMC connector (can a LPC FMC connector plug into the HPC connector on the ITX board)?

If so, has anyone done this, and do you have a picture of the orientation?

Thanks

Hi,

You can plug an LPC FMC into an HPC FMC connector, the HPC just has additional signals.

The AD-FMCOMMS3-EBZ will fit on the Mini-ITX but the antennas may block the Zynq fansink on the Mini-ITX board. You may want to use SMA cables to connect to remote antennas. Here is a link to a picture of a Mini-ITX with an FMCCOMMS2 board installed:
