DAC38RF89: both has no output

Part Number: DAC38RF89

hi,ti

I am using dac38rf89 in L-M-F-S-HD =82121 (2 TX mode);

costomer board

 

dac config as followed:

differential input clk :2Ghz

pll on chip unused, dac clock frequency 2Ghz,directly derived from differential input clk

dual dac, real input, 4 serdes lanes per dac;

interpolation x1

serdes line rate 10Gbps

sysref frequency 3.125M

k=20

now I do believe JESD TX side have finished CGS and ILAS, establish the link. I checked alarm registers it looked like all right,volage of Rbias = 0.9v,but both dac has no output?

1、  can you give me a recommended cfg file  of  above dac config,I check again

2、  another question I found I config 0x40a, as 0xfc03 , JESD link failed,but onfig 0x40a ,as 0xfc00 JESD link successed,how could I config 0x40a

3、  Is it related to other config or other part of circuits, can you give me some advice?

 

Regards,

mumu

  • Hi,

    1. configuration file can be generated from the DAC38RF8x EVM GUI. Please set up the GUI per your LMFS mode and clock rate, and the configuration file can be generated and double checked.

    2. clock configuration is done by the calculators inside the EVM GUI

    3. Please also double check if TXENABLE GPIO is pulled to logic high to enable output. Please clear all PAP alarms to ensure the PAP is not gating the output.
