Clocking and Sampling Rates

There are two master clock rates (MCR) supported on the X300 and X310: 200.0 MHz and 184.32 MHz.

The sampling rate must be an integer decimation rate of the MCR. Ideally, this decimation factor should be an even number. An odd decimation factor will result in additional unwanted attenuation (roll-off from the CIC filter in the DUC and DDC blocks in the FPGA). The valid decimation rates are between 1 and 1024.

For the MCR of 200.0 MHz, the achievable sampling rates using an even decimation factor are 200.0, 100.0, 50.0, 33.33, 25.0, 20.0, 16.67, 14.286 Msps, . 195.31 Ksps.

For the MCR of 184.32 MHz, the achievable sampling rates using an even decimation factor are 184.32, 92.16, 46.08, 30.72, 23.04, 18.432, 15.36, 13.166 Msps, . 180.0 Ksps.

If the desired sampling rate is not directly supported by the hardware, then it will be necessary to re-sample in software. This can be done in C++ using libraries such as Liquid DSP [1], or can be done in GNU Radio, in which there are three blocks that perform sampling rate conversion.

FPGA User Modifications

The Verilog code for the FPGA in the USRP X300 and USRP X310 is open-source, and users are free to modify and customize it for their needs. However, certain modifications may result in either bricking the device, or even in physical damage to the unit. Specifically, changing the I/O interface of the FPGA in any way (do not remove any of the I/O for the PCIe interface, such as x300_pcie_int and LvFpga_Chinch_Interface), or modifying the pin and timing constraint files, could result in physical damage to other components on the motherboard, external to the FPGA, and doing this will void the warranty. Also, even if the PCIe interface is not being used, you cannot remove or reassign these pins in the constraint file. The constraint files should not be modified. Please note that modifications to the FPGA are made at the risk of the user, and may not be covered by the warranty of the device.

Choosing USRP X310 vs USRP X300

In terms of host bandwidth, interface options, and all other hardware features the USRP X300 and USRP 310 are identical. However, the USRP X310 provides a larger FPGA, a Xilinx XC7K410T, as opposed to XC7K325T. While both options provide a significant amount of free resources for custom FPGA development, the XC7K410T provides additional design margin, which translates to ease of development and future expandability. Most users choose the USRP X310 for their development.

For up-to-date information on FPGA resource utilization in the stock FPGA design, please see 'USRP 300/X310 FPGA Resources' in the Ettus Research knowledge base (https://kb.ettus.com).

Choosing an RF Daughterboard

With the increased sample rates used by the USRP X300 and USRP X310, these new device can support extended-bandwidth daughterboards. The WBX-120, SBX-120, and CBX-120 are recommended to take advantage of the full bandwidth capability of the USRP X300 and X310. The WBX-120, SBX-120, and CBX-120 have been upgraded from their predecessors (40 MHz) to use 120 MHz baseband filters. You can select your daughterboard based on the center frequency of your primary application.

DaughterboardFrequency RangeBandwidth
WBX-12050 MHz - 2200 MHz120 MHz
SBX-120400 MHz - 4400 MHz120 MHz
CBX-1201200 MHz - 6000 MHz120 MHz
UBX-16010 MHz - 6000 MHz160 MHz
TwinRX10 MHz - 6000 MHz80 MHz per channel, 160 MHz total

If your application is in the HF frequency range, the LFRX and LFTX are recommended for up to 30 MHz of bandwidth per channel. The BasicRX and BasicTX are ideal for configurations that use an external frontend for tuning and filtering with either an IF or baseband interface.

The USRP X300 and X310 are backward compatible with legacy daughterboards except for the RFX Series and XCVR2450. Please note, while there are two daughterboard slots, the USRP X300/X310 can only support a single TVRX2.


If you plan to transmit or receive over the air, you should also purchase an antenna.

Choosing a Host Interface

The USRP X300/X310 provide three interface options – 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1 GigE), 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GigE), and PCI-Express (PCIe). The PCIe interface is always available regardless of what FPGA image is loaded. Ettus ships two FPGA image variants, the HG or HGS image which has one 1 GigE interfaces and one 10 GigE interfaces, and the XG image which has two 10 GigE interfaces. Generally, Ettus Research recommends using 10 GigE to achieve the maximum throughput available from the USRP X300/X310. PCIe is recommended for applications that require the lowest possible latency, which is a desirable characteristic for PHY/MAC research. If your application does not require the full bandwidth of the USRP ™ X300 and X310, the 1 GigE interface serves as a cost-effective fall-back option. Ettus Research provides a complete interface kit for each of these options, which is also shown in Table 3.

If you are not using the USRP X300/X310 in the US/Japan, we recommend purchasing the International USRP X300/X310 Power Cord set.

Option: GPS Disciplined, Oven-Controlled Oscillator (GPSDO)

The USRP X300 and USRP X310 provide the option to integrate a high-accuracy GPS-disciplined oscillator (GPSDO). The GPSDO improves the accuracy of the internal frequency reference to 20 ppb, or 0.1 ppb if the GPS is synchronized to the GPS constellation. When synchronized to the GPS constellation, all USRP ™ devices will also be synchronized in time within 50 ns.

Option: Antenna Kit for GPSDO

The GPSDO Mini Kit will improve the accuracy of the USRP reference clock, even if it does not receive signals from the GPS Constellation. However, to achieve the best accuracy possible, and to achieve global timing alignment across multiple USRPs, Ettus Research recommends the GPSDO Mini Antenna Kit.

Option: General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) Kit

The USRP X300 and X310 include a DB15 connector on the front panel that provides convenient access to GPIO signals. Each pin can be configured as an input or output, uses 3.3V-level logic, and is protected with basic anti-static circuitry. These pins can be used to control external devices like RF switches and amplifiers, trigger software events on the host, or even provide basic debugging functionality. The USRP GPIO Kit is an affordable option that provides access to these signals with a DB15 cable and a breakout board. The breakout board allows the user to connect external devices through a terminal block. The user can also solder wires and components into the dedicated prototyping area.

Option: Cables for MIMO Expansion

Multiple USRP X300/X310s can be synchronized for coherent operation by sharing a common 10 MHz and 1 PPS signal. We recommend using a star-distribution topology with an OctoClock or OctoClock-G, as seen in Figure 4. This requires matched length cables to be used for both 10 MHz and 1 PPS.

For more information about MIMO operation, please see the MIMO and Synchronization Application Note.

Figure 4 - Star-Distribution of 10 MHz/PPS Signals with OctoClock

Option: USRP X300/X310 Rackmount

The USRP X300 and X310 were designed to be used with a 1U Rackmount Assembly for building high-density MIMO systems in a compact and well-organized setup. This mount supports one or two compatible USRPs, and if two are mounted then there are rubber standoffs between the USRPs to avoid both direct contact and surface scratching. If the user will be developing in a laboratory environment or building a high-channel count USRP system, then a 1U Rackmount Assembly is highly recommended. This specific mount is compatible with only the USRP X300 and X310, and allows the integration of up to four bidirectional -- or eight receive-only -- RF channels per 1U.

Guidance on SFP+ Adapters for Fiber Connectivity on USRP X300/X310

Ettus Research currently offers direct-connect, copper cabling accessories for the USRP X300 and USRP X310. However, it is also possible to use multi-mode fiber instead of copper connections for these devices.

The USRP X Series is compatible with most brands of SFP+ fiber adapters. In some cases, other equipment in the systems such as 1/10 Gigabith Ethernet switches are only compatible with specific brands of SFP+ adapters and cables. Better blocker 2020 2019. As a general rule, we recommend checking compatibility with the switches and network cards in your system before purchasing an adapter.

Ettus Research does test the USRP X Series devices with our 10 Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity Kit and a Blade Networks G8124 1/10 GigE switch. Here are is a list of known-good cables and adapters.

Oracle Database Appliance patches are available in My Oracle Support. When selecting a patch, ensure that you select the 12.2.1.3.0 release from the drop down box.

  • Oracle Database Appliance 12.2.1.1.0 GI Clone for ODACLI/DCS stack: Use to perform an initial deployment of Oracle Database Appliance. The bundle contains the latest Grid Infrastructure components for deployment on an Oracle Database Appliance in the 'shipped from factory' state, or an Oracle Database Appliance that has been re-imaged using the OS ISO Image. This patch is for Oracle Database Appliance X7-2S, X7-2M, and X7-2-HA Bare Metal platforms.

  • 12.2.0.1 Database: Use the Oracle 12.2.0.1.180116 RDBMS Software Clone file to create new 12.2.0.1 database homes.

  • 12.1.0.2 Database: Use the Oracle 12.2.0.1.180116 RDBMS Software Clone file to create new 12.1.0.2 database homes.

  • 11.2.0.4 Database: Use the Oracle 11.2.0.4.180116 RDBMS Software Clone file to create new 11.2.0.4 database homes.

  • (Optional) ISO Image: Use to perform a bare metal restore (re-image) of the operating system. Bare metal is a non-virtualized Oracle Database Appliance configuration. Use only when you must re-image the operating system.

    Note:

    Re-imaging a server using the Oracle Database Appliance ISO image installs the new OS on the local disks on that server. After re-imaging, use the Oracle Database Appliance GI Clone for ODACLI/DCS stack to deploy Oracle Database Appliance (bare metal platform.) The bundle contains the latest Grid Infrastructure components (ILOM, BIOS, Controller, Expander, disk firmware, and other components.)

    After re-imaging, run /opt/oracle/oak/onecmd/cleanup.pl, configure the public network with the command /opt/oracle/oak/bin/oakcli configure firstnet, and then deploy Oracle Database Appliance.

GI Clone, Database RDBMS Clone, and ISO Image Patches for a Virtualized Platform

To deploy a virtualized platform on Oracle Database Appliance X7-2-HA, use the VM ISO Image (DOM0) patch to re-image the server with an OS that includes virtualization capabilities. After re-imaging, use the VM Template (ODA_BASE) to deploy ODA_Base for the virtualized platform.

Note:

When you re-image using the VM ISO Image, the system uses the oakcli stack, including the Configurator to deploy the appliance and the command-line interface to manage the appliance.
