Yes John, you are absolutely right. There is no such a product like
the one I am looking for. I give up. All the boards you suggested ,
were already visited.The project is meant to implement two IIR
filters( with programable coeffs)  in one of these spartan3 , and it
doent require high-speed(25Mhz)  but low-cost , and thispackage is
easier to mount (according to what I heard).
We will have to develop our own board.I am skilled at programming VHDL
for DSP specially , so I will have to ask a PCB designer here in my
company to do the wok for me.
Thanks folks for the valuable information you share in this group.

Best Regards,

Alfredo Taddei

I'm not sure you will find a product like this. Most of the DSP
orientated boards with ADC/DAC at this level tend be lined up with
Virtex level FPGAs.

I would also make the observation that the PQ208 package relatively
poor at handling high speed I/O compared to BGA based parts and if we
were designing a development board of this specification we certainly
would not be using the PQ208 package.

Not quite what you want and not a pretty solution but some of the
Linear Tech ADC demo boards can plug into our Broaddown2 Spartan-3
Development, with minor mods, on the edge connector Alternatively you
might also to be able to wire something like our Drigmorn1/Craignell
boards (fitted with either XC3S100E-4CPG132C or XC3S500E-4CPG132C) on
a high quality breadboard together with Linear Technology boards.

Longer term we do have plans for middle end ADC/DAC modules to support
all of our products that have DIL headers on them and for the very
high end ADC/DAC there will be a Moel-Bryn module/s and another
format(to be announced) that will support the forthcoming Hollybush2
product.

OK, so, maybe the Linear Tech dev. boards will work? You might have to 
replace the FPGA xc3s200-pq208 with the xc3s500e-pq208 you asked for. Dunno 
if they're pin compatible...

Sorry , Syms I replied only to you.


I need at least 80 Msps and 10 bit resolution.
I apologize for the inconvenience.

From your original post, what do you mean by "-ADC <80Msps <10bit"?
'<' means 'less than', right?

Thanks , I did a quick research and couldn't find anything with the
ADC and DAC I need. It looks like there aren't these kind of boards
around. At least if I could get a footprint it would really help.

Hi everybody , I am looking for a development board. My intention is
to devolp a DSP application so ideally should contain :

-xc3s500e-pq208
-ADC <80Msps <10bit
-DAC same specifications.

-The PROM and JTAG interface is not an issue . I have a JTAG
programmer for PROMS.

I would reaaly appreciate your help.
