  • Page 5: General Description

    2 General description The FMC204 is a quad-channel D/A FMC. The FMC204 provides four 16-bit D\A channels that enable simultaneous sampling at a maximum rate of 1 Gsps. The sample clock can be supplied externally through a coax connection or by an internal clock source (optionally locked to an external reference).
  • Page 6: Installation

    The carrier card must support VADJ/VIO_B voltage of +2.5V (LVDS support) for FMC204 revision 1. The carrier card can support VADJ/VIO_B voltage range of 1.65V to 3.3V for FMC204 revision 2, but typically VADJ will be 1.8V or 2.5V for LVDS operation.
  • Page 7: Design

    4 Design 4.1 Physical specifications 4.1.1 Board Dimensions The FMC204 card complies with the FMC standard known as ANSI/VITA 57.1. The card is a single-width, conduction-cooled mezzanine module (with region 1 and front panel I/O). 4.1.2 Front panel coax inputs There are six coax connectors available from the front panel.

    LVCMOS level (V = VADJ). 4.2.1 EEPROM The FMC204 card carries a 2Kbit EEPROM which is accessible from the carrier card through the I C bus. The EEPROM is powered by 3P3VAUX. The standby current is only 0.01µA when SCL and SDA are kept at 3P3VAUX level.

    LVDS signal to both D/A converters. 4.7 Clock Tree The FMC204 offers a clock architecture that combines flexibility and high performance. Components have been chosen to minimize jitter and phase noise to reduce degradation of the data conversion performance. The user may use an external or internal sampling clock.

    N.B. These connectors are not available on the FMC204 revision 2. 4.9 Power supply Power is supplied to the FMC204 card through the FMC connector. The pin current rating is 2.7A, but the overall maximum as specified by the FMC standard is limited according to Table 6.
  • Page 15: Synchronizing Multiple Cards

    Table 6: FMC standard power specification The power provided by the carrier card can be very noisy. Special care is taken with the power supply generation on the FMC204 card to minimize the effect of power supply noise on clock generation and data conversion.

    N_RESET on the both DAC5682Z devices is shared. 5.2 SPI Programming The SPI programmable devices on the FMC204 can be accessed as described in their datasheet, but each SPI communication cycle needs to be preceded with a preselection byte. The preselection byte is used by the CPLD to forward the SPI command to the right destination.
