Hello to everyone,
I am very new to the world of FPGA boards, and digital data converters, and that I deal with signal processing hardware.
I am going to work with a TR4 development board produced by Terasic, such a board is mounting a Stratix IV FPGA which is meeting my performance requests.
Now the point is that I would like to connect an ADC (16 bits - 1MSPS) to it, and as I don´t need to get stuck into design issues, I have decided to find
a "plug and play" product already present on the market.
After some internet research I have fount the following product:
https://www.ti.com/lit/ug/sbau185/sbau185.pdf
which would be good for my purpose. Now the question is the following:
How can I interface this object to my FPGA board?
Could I just connect this straight to a general purpose I/O port on my FPGA board?
Do I need any header/socket to combine it to my FPGA board?
Should I take care about the output voltage delivered by this ADC?
Any useful advice making me understand if I´m on the right way is welcome!
All the best,
Giovanni
