Application Information

The TAMC900 is a high speed, high performance analog

to digital converter AdvancedMC. In addition to the eight

high speed ADCs, it provides excessive preprocessing

power by a Virtex-5 FPGA and high speed on board

memory for e.g. full bandwidth snapshots.

A Virtex-5 LX30T is assembled on the TAMC900-10R.

The TAMC900-25R is assembled with a Virtex-5 SX35T.

AMC Port 4-11 on the TAMC900-10R or Port 0, 1 and 4-9

on the TAMC900-25R can be used to transmit the ADC

data to the CPU.

To

adapt

the

TAMC900

to

different

customer

requirements, the TAMC900 is equipped with a Signal

Conditioning Adapter (SiCA) that contains the front panel

with the connectors for the analog inputs, clock and trigger

inputs and the analog signal conditioning.

The TAMC900 provides three clock inputs and three

trigger inputs. The three external clock inputs and the

PCIe reference clock are routed to a flexible clocking

scheme that allows independent clocking of the ADCs in

two groups. The trigger inputs are routed to the FPGA.

Eight LTC2254 ADCs provide up to 105 MSps and 14 bit

resolution each. The minimum sample rate is 1 Msps.

4 MByte high speed on board QDR-II SRAM enables

snapshots of all ADCs at full speed and full resolution for

2ms.

According to AMC.0, the TAMC900 provides an IPMI

compliant Module Management Controller (MMC) with

temperature monitoring and hot-swap support.

The TAMC900 is delivered with a basic firmware, which

allows gathering ADC data from all channels, triggering,

clock configuration, and uses a PCIe x4 Link (AMC Port 4-

7) to transmit ADC data to the CPU. Driver and Example

Application for the basic firmware are available for

different operating systems.
