SYZYGY is a relatively new interface standard that <a href=\"https:\/\/digilent.com\/blog\/navigating-the-difference-between-pmod-syzygy-and-fmc\/\">provides more performance than Pmod while being more space-efficient and cost-effective than FMC<\/a>. Alongside the release of the Eclypse Z7, Digilent created two \u201cZmods\u201d, or SYZYGY- compatible modules: the Zmod ADC 1410 and Zmod DAC 1411, which brought high-speed I\/O to the Eclypse platform.<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, we are excited to be <em>substantially<\/em> expanding our Zmod offerings. The first addition to the Zmod family will include six new modules. We\u2019re continuing to focus on high-speed I\/O and rolling out additional Zmod ADCs, with analog-to-digital converters of varying performance. The new Zmod ADCs will offer resolution at 10-, 12-, and 14-bit with sampling rates ranging from 10MS\/s up to 125MS\/s. With this degree of variance, we think they&#8217;ll be helpful for engineers and researchers from telecommunications to prototyping to embedded OEM.
