Note: it is not always necessary to have the ramp patterns aligned to obtain correct data acqui-
sition using the analog inputs. Even if the ramp mode is not synchronous, you could
return to the normal mode and perform one acquisition. Normally the acquisition of sinus
wave in normal mode is correct.
2.3 External
Equipment
The QUAD 10-bit Demo Kit needs very little external hardware.
RF generator for Analog input signal
The QUAD 10-bit ADC can convert analog signals up to 2GHz
For optimum performance this generator must have a low phase noise
Please see Table 2-1 for example of signal generator.
Cables & Power Supply (provided by e2v)
Universal 12V power Adapter & Cables
USB Cables to communicate with a PC (control of ADC settings and settings
for data acquisition)
PC with Windows
Windows 2000/98/XP and Windows NT and Windows 7 (note 32bit only)
Please see chap 4.1 Overview
FPGA evaluation board compatible with VITA57 FMC standard
This Demo Kit board has been specially designed to be plugged with the
XILINX VIRTEX 6 evaluation board EK-V6-ML605-G.
The QUAD 10-bit Demo Kit could be used with other FPGA evaluation boards
compatible with VITA57 FMC standard. However, an assessment of available
connections should be made to ensure full compatibility.
