AFE7422EVM: AFE7422EVM connection to the TCI6630K2L and TSW14J56EVM boards

Part Number: AFE7422EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TSW14J57EVM, AFE7422

Good day Colleagues,

Could you tell me if the AFE7422EVM 100% compatible and can be connected to the TCI6630K2L and TSW14J56EVM boards?

In AFE7422EVM user guide I see only the TSW14J57EVM

Thank you, Mikhail

  • Mikhail,

    We typically support the AFE74xx with the TSW14J57 although it is possible to operate with a TSW14J56 EVM. Both TSW EVM's contain Altera FPGA's on them used for processing. As for the TCI6630K2L, I am not familiar with the part so i couldn't answer that question. I would recommend posting on the e2e forum that owns the TCI16630K2L and ask if the chip can connect to transceivers with JESD204b interface.

    Thanks

  • Good day Yusuf,

    Thank you for answer!

    I see both EVMs have different type of connectors (FMC and FMC+).

    Are there any difference behind it? Like software or any limitations in using with the AFE7422EVM?

    Thank you, Mikhail

  • Mikhail,

    The difference is that the FMC+ is a bigger connector with more pins but it's still compatible with regular FMC devices so there is no limitation with the AFE7422 EVM.
