PRODUCTION DATA
The device uses a JESD204C high-speed serial interface for data converters to transfer data from the ADC to the receiving logic device. The device serialized lanes are capable of operating with both 8B/10B encoding and 64B or 66B encoding. The JESD204C output formats using 8B or 10B encoding are backwards compatible with existing JESD204B receivers. A maximum of 8 lanes can be used to lower lane rates for interfacing with speed-limited logic devices. There are a few differences between 8B or 10B and 64B or 66B encoded JESD204C, which is highlighted throughout this section. Figure 6-5 shows a simplified block diagram of the 8B or 10B encoded JESD204C interface and Figure 6-6 shows a simplified block diagram of the 64B or 66B encoded JESD204C interface.
The various signals used in the JESD204C interface and the associated ADC12QJ1600-SEP pin names are summarized briefly in Table 6-7 for reference. Most of the signals are common between 8B or 10B and 64B or 66B encoded JESD204C, except for SYNC which is not needed to achieve block synchronization for 64B or 66B encoding. The sync header encoded into the data stream is used for block synchronization instead of the SYNC signal.
SIGNAL NAME | PIN NAMES | 8B/10B | 64B/66B | DESCRIPTION |
---|---|---|---|---|
Data | D[7:0]+, D[7:0]– | Yes | Yes | High-speed serialized data after 8B/10B or 64B/66B encoding |
SYNC | SYNCSE | Yes | No | Link initialization signal (handshake), toggles low to start code group synchronization (CGS) process. Not used for 64B/66B encoding modes, unless it is used for NCO synchronization purposes. |
Device clock | CLK+, CLK– or SE_CLK | Yes | Yes | ADC sampling clock or PLL reference clock, also used for clocking digital logic and output serializers |
SYSREF | SYSREF+, SYSREF– | Yes | Yes | System timing reference used to deterministically reset the internal local multiframe clock (LMFC) or local extended multiblock clock (LEMC) counters in each JESD204C device |
Not all optional features of JESD204C are supported by ADC12QJ1600-SEP. The list of features that are supported and the features that are not supported is provided in Table 6-8.
