Interfacing between TMS320C6678 and Spartan 6 via SerDes

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6678

Hi

I am going to connect the SerDes of TMS320C6678 to Spartan 6 GTP Transceivers.

Please Let me know is it enough to put 0.1uF capacitor per each line between devices for AC coupling?

Best Regards.

  • The recommendation is to use an 0402 or smaller 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor for the C6678.  You can find this in section 11 of the SerDes Implementation Guidelines for Keystone I devices. You will have to check the documentation for the Spartan 6 to ensure that is compatible.
