Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DAC38J84
Hi guys,
My customer is using the DAC38rf89 in a design and has the following questions:
We are having some issues with the DAC38RF89 JESD interface. We have been able to pass the PRBS tests (although needed to invert all lanes from what was expected). Currently attempting to confirm ILA_CFG.
Attached is our configuration of the DAC. Questions include:
- Do the LID fields in the JESD ID 1/2/3 registers (0x46, 0x47, 0x48) correspond to the SERDES lane IDs (before the crossbar) or the logically mapped JESD lane IDs (after the crossbar)
- We have SERDES lane ID 2 mapped to JESD lane ID 0. Should LID2 be 0 or should LID0 be set to 0 if the transmitter has an ID of 0 for lane 0?
- We have to set the SERDES inversion to the opposite of what we expect for the SERDES PRBS tests to pass and we do not currently understand why.
- If we enable SYNC request for link configuration error (bit 5 set in JESD_SYNC_REQ register 0x51), the DAC continually asserts the SYNC line over and over and JESD alarm bit for link configuration error is set in the alarm register for all 4 lanes.
- If the bit is not set in the JESD_SYNC_REQ register, no alarms are reported for a link configuration error and the SYNC line stays de-asserted after initial configuration.
- On the TSW14J56 are you using Altera’s JESD core?
- Recommendations?
