Hi I'd like to ask if that device will process data from 16 ADC (20 bit, 44,1kHz) to one output stream (does it depend on ADC clock - i mean adc input clock = amount of output samples/s ? ) ? Or maybe i should consider using external input buffers ? thx in advance
xilinx spartan 3 + 16 adc

sorry i did miss "xc3s50" i want to connect 16 outputs from ADC (dont know specification yet) to FPGA inputs and convert them to one stream. regards On 23 Lis, 10:40, "jerzy.g...@gmail.com" <jerzy.g...@gmail.com> wrote:> On 23 Lis, 10:08, woj...@gmail.com wrote: > > > Hi > > > I'd like to ask if that device will process data from 16 ADC (20 bit, > > 44,1kHz) to one output stream (does it depend on ADC clock - i mean > > adc input clock = amount of output samples/s ? ) ?

Should be possible with such a device if you choose a correct clock frequency.

However, your calculation of the total bandwidth required is still correct... Obviously this speed is not an issue with any of the modern FPGAs. /Mikhail

The issue will be the number of parallel inputs to the FPGA. 16 x 20 bits would require 320 data inputs, unless you can do some external multiplexing or data ORing.. Once inside the FPGA, the bandwidth should be no problem.

I'm not sure I have ever seen a 20+ bit 44Khz samplig ADC with a parallel data stream ? Most use a SSI serial interface (which is where the 14 Mbps numbers are coming from ) So, depending on what the OP means exactly by "process data", this looks doable in a FPGA. -jg

It was common enough in the 16 bit days though. There may have been 20-bit offerings from some of the hybrid manufacturers, Analogic maybe? - Brian

I was just trying to say that the 44.1 kHz is not the data output serial clock, but rather the output sampling clock frequency. /Mikhail
