Hi, I am trying to setup AD9082 using ACE. What I am interested in is setup the ADC in FBW mode (JESD204C mode 19)
The setup completes ok but the spectrum looks like this
Can you please check this on your side as well?
yhkim , thank you for the quick reply. I dont think it is teh data formating but will check. I see your point. What got me confused is, for other modes where the data is decimated, the FFT looked fine, so I didnt have to verify the data formatting. Here is the screenshot with the formatting. it is set to twos complement. interestingly, the data captures continuously fine. i have a feeling this is sw related. I am going to try the API route and see if i can get something different
Please find the uc46 in the uc_settings.c, which is for 6GHz full bandwidth mode and it is for RX only. Hope that helps.
yhkim , I am convinced something is wrong with the ace gui setting up the AD9082. I tried your ucsettings uc46 along with the ad9082_app.c file below is the captured data displayed on an fft
yhkim , yes you certainly can. Just create a new canvas as shown above. I have attached the canvas here. just rename it from .txt to .vac and you can go to town with it
