Interfacing pipeline ADC to 6713 DSK ?

Started by flattims February 11, 2008
Hello all,

I am hoping to make a daughtercard for the 6713 DSK which includes,
amongst other things, one of those "analog front ends" from
MAxim..the max19705...which has a dual pipeline ADC & DAC.

Both these and the DSK are new for me, and Im trying to figure out
the simplest, hopefully "glueless", ways of getting the streaming
data from the dual ADCs (7msps) and into the 6713, as well as
streaming out data to the dual DACs.

The thing that has me perplexed is how to cope simply with the
streaming data ie: what signal should I use as a clk source (to best
control sample rate)?

As well the data from the dual ADC is multiplexed to both pos & neg
edges of the clk... so a regular read strobe will not do it.

Can anyone familiar with the many interface/clocking capabilities of
the 6713 DSK suggest some methods I can try out ? or perhaps direct
me to some examples or hints...as it is a rather steep learning
curve ...and Im sure there is an elegant way to do it?

Thanks for any help,

Carlo
