AD463x Platform FPGA Architecture

AD463x FPGA Architecture

The AD463x digital host consists of DSP (digital signal processor), or an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array). In this case we use the Intel Cyclone V SoC FPGA with a dual core ARM Cortex A9 hard processor system (HPS) with the embedded Analog Devices .

The Intel Cyclone V SoC FPGA serves as the digital host for the AD463x ADCs. It also implements various interfaces and modules for configuration, control, status, dma, as well as conversion data processing and host processing. Additionally, there are external data/control and video peripheral interfaces implemented in the FPGA for use on the DataStorm DAQ.

The AD4630-24 is a two-channel, simultaneous sampling, Easy Drive, 2 MSPS successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to digital converter (ADC). For details, consult the datasheet and its operation on the EVAL-AD4630-24FMCZ evaluation board.
