ADS4129: Inquiry regarding ADS4129 usage

Part Number: ADS4129

Tool/software:

Hi, TI expert

The customer is planning to use ADS4129.

- Application : Ultrasonic beauty device for measuring skin thickness

Q1) The output signal of ADS4129 is Parallel LVDS and Parallel CMOS output, and I want to connect this output signal to MCU. However, it seems that there is no MCU that can receive Parallel LVDS signal.

      In this case, how can I connect the ADC output signal?

Q2) Can you recommend an MCU or Processor to connect the output signal of ADS4129?

Q3) If the above method does not work, I looked at other ADC products and they have different output signal types (for example, Serial LVDS, Serial CMOS, JESD204A, JESD204B). Please guide me on how to connect these products to MCU.

Q4) Can I connect the Serial LVDS signal to the PECI port of the MCU as an alternative?

Q5) Is there any way to check if the conversion data is correct when the ADC and MCU are connected normally?

Please check. Thank you.

 

  • Hi, these higher speed devices require an FPGA for receiving the data. We cannot support any microcontroller due to no microcontroller being capable of receiving the data throughput of any of our high speed (>10MSPS) devices.
