Overview

The ADS6000 is a family of high sample rate (up to 125 Mega Samples Per Second) Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) from Texas Instruments. These ADCs output their digital data serially at speeds greater than 800 Mbps. An FPGA interfacing with this serial bit stream needs to implement deserializer logic operating at the same clock speed. This seminar discusses timing challenges and design details of a deserializer logic implementation within an FPGA fabric and provides the details of a modified implementation that meets all the timings.
