The LatticeECP3™ IOP to TI ADC/DAC Adapter provides a convenient platform to evaluate, test and debug user designs and IP cores targeted for the LatticeECP3-150 FPGA on the LatticeECP3 I/O Protocol Board, that are designed to interface directly with the Texas Instruments (TI) ADS6425 and DAC5682Z EVM boards. Other TI EVM boards may also be compatible with the LatticeECP3 IOP to TI ADC/DAC Adapter board. When connected, the Lattice and TI evaluation boards lay out flat on the desktop in a mechanically stable test configuration.
The ADS6425 ADC device from Texas Instruments is a high-speed, multi-channel, low power, 12- and 14-bit pin compatible Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) which can be evaluated using the TI ADS6425EVM board. The DAC5682Z DAC device from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit, 1.0 GSPS 2x-4x Interpolating Dual Channel Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) which can be evaluated using the TI DAC5882ZEVM board. Both the ADS6425EVM and DAC5882ZEVM evaluation boards can interface with the LatticeECP3 I/O Protocol Board simultaneously through the LatticeECP3 IOP to TI ADC/DAC Adapter.
