AD9675 start code

I'd like to clarify how the AD9675 start code is overlaid onto the data stream; specifically:

  • Does the start code appear once per channel or once per lane?
  • If the latter, does it always appear on the lower channel (i.e., A on SERDOUT1, C on SERDOUT2, etc. assuming four-lane mode), upper channel, or either channel?

Thanks for your reply.

  • Hi Tony,

    Thank you for your interest in AD9675. The engineer who knows about this part is out-of-the-office today. I'm filling in and I'll pass along the information I've been able to gather.

    • The Start Code appears once per lane.
    • It appears before the first (or as you say, "upper") channel's data.

    In other words, for 4-lane mode:

    SERDOUT0: STARTCODE, CHA data , ChB data, ChA data, ChB data,….

    SERDOUT1: STARTCODE, CHC data , ChD data, ChC data, ChD data,….

    SERDOUT2: STARTCODE, CHE data , ChF data, ChE data, ChF data,….

    SERDOUT3: STARTCODE, CHG data , ChH data, ChG data, ChH data,….

    Thank you.

    Doug
