How to connect two BNC connectors to FPGA board?

Started by Alex January 24, 2010
Hello All,

In my project some RF input from outside circuitry has to be converted
into digital form in ADC and then, after processing in FPGA, it will
be converted back into analog RF signal which is to be displayed on an
oscilloscope.

Hence, I am interested - how to connect BNC connectors to ADC and DAC
present on Xilinx Spartan-3E 1600E Microblaze Development Board?

Thank you.

You can use Digilent BNC connector. Xilinx Spartan-3E 1600E Microblaze Development Board has appropriate 6 pin connectors. http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?NavPath=3D2,401,541&Prod=3DP= MOD-CON2

Anyway I have noticed that the both - Digilent Pmod BNC connector and
J5 header (which is used for DAC on Xilinx 1600E Microblaze
development kit) are actually male pin connectors - so how to connect
them?! I am puzzled.

They come with a cable that has the female connectors at both ends. Regards, John McCaskill www.FasterTechnology.com
