ASI Ser/Des

General Description

MW_ASI/SMPTE_SERDES cores implements related standards, by means of a precise and robust design, to inexpensive devices, (from Spartan3  up to 7Series families) using reduced FPGA resources.
This implies, at system level, two major benefits:

  • No external deserializer devices are required
  • Several instances of the core can be mapped in the same low-cost FPGA

MW_ASI/SMPTE_SERDES_RX performs three major tasks:

  • Recovery and resampling serial data
  • Framing data in the correct word boundary
  • Decoding the 8B/10B encoded word
  • TS flow delineation and synchronization
  • TS flow adapting to user clock

MW_ASI/SMPTE_SERDES_TX adapts TS flow from yser clock to transmission clock, encodes words in 8B/10B format and serializes the data for transmission.

Clock infrastructures (PLLs, DCMs, BUFGs) are common to all core instances.

Features

  • Compatible with DVB standard
  • 310/270 Mbit Asynchronous
    deserializer
  • Robust Jitter tolerance
  • Polarity Insensitive
  • 8B/10B coding
  • TS framing
  • Rate adaptation
  • ASI received clock recovery (for “seamless” applications)
  • Rx Clock Jitter compensation (up to 0.6 U.I.)
