I don't know why I thought it would be easy. The arithmetic is not so hard by itself. But changing all the equations to normalize the variables is not so easy. Then there is the issue of needing to assure the results don't grow out of range and I hadn't even given thought to the need for saturating arithmetic in some cases. I'm designing a fixed point math engine to do modera

OK, pointy-haired boss question. Given a ZYNQ 7020, speed grade 1. A 3.3 volt i/o bank gets a clock from an LVDS input. We have a resync flop in an i/o cell, clocked by this, with a D input from somewhere. Output is the strongest/fastest 3.3 volt option. About what would be the typical prop delay from the clock to the output pin? Online search yields a lot of words and no numbers. Exp...

I have looked at ADCs in FPGAs but never built one. Obviously sigma delta is a good way to go as it can be done all digitally, or almost so. I'm not completely clear on how to do it. Lattice has a reference design using an LVDS receiver as a comparator. They use an RC filter on the output bit as the reference voltage for the input. I'm having trouble relating this to the typ
