I must be missing something!
On the ADS1675 24-bit 4Msps ADC - How do you get 4 Msps out, at 24-bits per sample, serially, with a 32MHz serial clock?
Seems like we need a 96 MHz clock. Even if it was DDR, we'd need a 48 MHz clock.
Thanks,
John

Hi John,
In order to be able to read the data at the maximum sampling rate, the user needs to read the conversions using the high speed LVDS (low-Voltage Differential Signaling) interface mode only. An on chip PLL is used to multiply the input master clock CLK by three to be used by the serial inteface. The data out, shift clock and data ready signals are output on the differential pairs of DOUT/DOUT, SCLK/SCLK and DRDY/DRDY. Page 23/ 24 provide some detail and p7 provides the timing requirements. The document on the link below provides more information.

Thank you and Best Regards,

Mr Zheng -
Please see the Using LVDS OUTPUT SWINGS section (page 24) of the ADS1675 datasheet for more information on the voltage swings of LVDS interface.
Hi Greg,
I have read this section in datasheet, but I still cann't understand it. it says "The voltage on the outputs is centered on 1.2V and swings approximately 350mV differentially."But it didn;t say what kind of voltage standard should be used by FPGA, 1.8V, 2.5V or 3.3V?
The other control interface of ADS1675 is 3.3V, so I will have to set the BANK voltage of FPGA to 3.3V. But the data interface is LVDS, can LVDS transmit through 3.3V standard?
Thanks in advance!

In looking through our offerings, you shouldn't have any problems using the interface with 3.3V. You should also be able to run down to 2.5V as well.
Jack,
even if your post is not the newest one:
LVDS is an io-standard that is independant from the power-supply voltage used by the transmitter or receiver. As you wrote, a (differential) LVDS signal is always centered on 1.2V and has a differential swing of app. 350mV. This is true for all LVDS transmitter, independant of their power-supply voltage.
For LVDS receiver, it's the same.
This way, there are no compatibility issues interfacing e.g. ADCs using 3.3V power-supply with latest generation FPGAs using 1.8V power-supply. And this was also the reason why LVDS was defined in this way. The guys who developed the standard wanted to get rid of the dependancy between io-standard and power-supply.
