Reg: ADS5232(10MSPS),data holing time

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS5232
I have selected ADS5232,buffer SN74AVC1624N,RAM modules CY62187EV30.
I want to store the data directly from ADC to SRAM thru buffer with (XC3S50AN) FPGA  control.
As per the ADS5232 data sheet,sampling rate ranges from 10MSPS to 65MSPS its typical data holding time is 8.5nseconds.
RAM module data access time is 55nseconds.

In this case,Please verify and confirm the compatibility of ADC and RAM for data storage.
Awaiting for your valuable response.

  • Hi Sridevi,

    The RAM may be used if the sampling clock provided to the ADC is less than 18 MHz. Beyond this, data on the digital output of the ADC will be changing faster than the data access time of the RAM. Consider switching to a faster RAM if you plan to use the ADC beyond 18MSPS.

    Thanks,

    Eben.
