After building a couple of more traditional clocks over the years, he set his sights on making a completely isolated digital clock ... time is implemented in an FPGA — admittedly overkill ...

Today, a lot of substantial digital design ... to be something a new FPGA developer will encounter. The reality is that nearly all significant digital design uses clocks is because it makes ...

A low area and high stability Time-to-Digital Converter (TDC ... delay element (in MUXCY of Xilinx FPGA), and better than 100ps accuracy is achieved. The fine interpolation time range must be larger ...

Clock signals in synchronous digital systems (such as those found in telecommunications ... but also to the components that comprise the clock distribution network. FPGA development teams are ...

Serial-data links embed clocks in their data streams ... stream in a Xilinx Spartan XC3S200 FPGA. The algorithm employs a modified data-recovery application note (Reference 1). The application note ...

1. Multiple interface possibilities exist for connecting an ADC to an FPGA. In double-data-rate (DDR) CMOS, the transmitter transitions data on every clock edge. This allows for the transfer of ...

Flexibility is key to FPGA success, but speed is equally important. Achronix almost triples the throughput of the system by taking clock gating to the extreme. The Achronix Speedster FPGAs use a ...
