Texas Instruments TSW1418EVM Evaluation Module

Texas Instruments TSW1418EVM Evaluation Module is an entry-level, low-cost, and FMC interface data capture card used to evaluate the performances of high-speed Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs). This module quickly evaluates high-speed Low-Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) data converter performance using high-speed data converter pro software (DATACONVERTERPRO-SW). The TSW1418EVM is dynamically configurable to support LVDS speeds up to 950Mbps and up to 18 data outputs using Xilinx® Artix-7 FPGA-based firmware. This evaluation module captures and evaluates data samples from ADC EVMs with the accompanying High-Speed Data Converter Pro Graphic User Interface (HSDC Pro GUI).

Features

  • Entry-level and low-cost data capture platform
  • 400-pin Samtec™ SEARAY™ connector directly connects to LVDS ADC EVMs
  • Onboard USB interface also provides board power
  • Xilinx® Artix-7 FPGA-based firmware
  • 64K of 16-bit samples of internal FPGA memory
  • 21 differential LVDS pairs with speeds up to 950Mbps Dual Data Rate (DDR)
  • 5 clock pairs
  • Supports 1.8V CMOS IO standard
  • Onboard FTDI USB device for JTAG and SPI to the FPGA
  • Spare clocking and general-purpose I/O available through FMC port or SMAs
  • Quickly evaluates high-speed LVDS data converter performance using High-speed data converter pro software (DATACONVERTERPRO-SW)
