ADS54RF63: Issue at high speed operation

Part Number: ADS54RF63
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMK01020,

Hi,

      I am using ADS54RF63. The device is working fine at 200 MHz. But when I am operating at 400 MHz, the data is getting corrupted at ADC pin itself. I am using LMK01020 for clocking and DRY for data capturing.

  • Hi,

    The devices are production tested at up to 550Msps, and the ADS54RF63 EVM is known to operate with our FPGA capture cards such as TSW1400 or TSW1405.  I was using one of these EVMs just yesterday with the TSW1405 FPGA card.   I would need to know much more information about just how you are using the device and just what it is you are seeing when you observe a problem.    Are you using the device on our EVM or on your own design. into your own FPGA?    You are aware of the source-aligned timing of the DRY relative to data, such that you have to have a 90 degree phase delay of DRY inside your FPGA before you can use it to latch the data?    The DRY signal does not leave the ADC with any setup/hold time provided at the ADC,. so in order to get valid setup/hold timing into the FPGA you would need to have some delay element or PLL for the DRY signal inside the FPGA.

    Regards,

  • Hi Richard

                        I am aware of the DRY signal and I am using FPGA PLL to delay the clock by 90 degree compared to DRY. Then I am using Ipcore to get the rising edge as well falling edge data. After that I am using 400 MHz to combine the data. The concept is working fine at 200 MHz where I am getting SNR of 61. But at 400, SNR is just 14.

  • Hi Richard

                     I am having a doubt. The data captured at rising as well falling edge of DRy, is it valid 12 bit data or its like, on rising edge ,  I will get odd bits and falling edge, even bits ??
