If you’ve been following our recent blog you may have come across a Getting started blog on X310 USRP. Similar to that, this blog post gives you the detail of X310 wherein we also take this opportunity to paint a picture on difference between other series of USRPs over X series.
Below table explains the differences of X Series over other series of USRPs.
| Features | X series | Bus Series | Network Series | Embedded series |
| FPGA | Large, customizable Kintex-7 FPGA | Xilinx Spartan 6 | Spartan 3A | Xilinx 7 Series FPGA with Dual ARM Cortex |
|
Interface to Host |
-Dual 1/10 Gigabit Ethernet
-PCIe Express (Desktop) -Express Card 3(Laptop) |
USB 3.0 interface. | Single 1 Gigabit Ethernet | No need to of external PC they perform stand-alone operation. |
|
Bandwidth |
Up 120MHz of RF bandwidth with 16-bit samples per channel | Up to 56 MHz of RF BW | Up to 56 MHz | Up to 56 MHz |
| Transceiver slots | Two | One Analog Devices AD9361 RFIC | One | One Analog Devices AD9361 RFIC |
| ADC/DAC sample rate | 200/800 MS/s | Around 61.44 MS/s | 100/400 MS/s | 61.44 MS/s |
| MIMO | 2×2 MIMO onboard | Yes (only B210) | 2×2 MIMO using MIMO Cable | 2×2 MIMO onboard |
Hope, the above table give you an idea about the strength & power of X series and Ettus Products.
