Description

Keywords: USB, PCI, Virtex-4, SX35, RoHS, ADC, SFDR, spurs, spikes

Why do I see reduced SFDR performance on the output of my ADCs than is described in the XtremeDSP Development Kit-IV User Guide?

Solution

It was discovered that the drive strength on the I/O driving the ADCs was not strong enough.

This issue should only apply to the XtremeDSP Development Kit-IV RoHS compliant edition.

A new bitstream and source code for the Virtex-II Clock FPGA can be obtained from the Nallatech Support Lounge for the XtremeDSP Development Kit-IV.
