AD_FMCLIDAR1_EBZ HDL reference design

Overview

The following design supports both Xilinx and Intel FPGA's. The AD_FMCLIDAR1_EBZ prototyping system connects to the FPGA carrier board through a FMC (FPGA Mezzanine Cad) high pin count connector.

Detailed user guide of the prototyping platform can be found here.

Currently supported carriers:

Carrier name FMC connector
ZC706 FMC_HPC
ZCU102 HPC0
Arria10SOC* FMCA_HPC

The design is easily portable to any Xilinx or Intel FPGA carrier board, which has an FMC HPC connector, and have all the required connections. (See more info in system_constr.xdc or system_project.tcl)

You can find a porting guide in the wiki.analog.com.

NOTE

The Arria10SOC carrier requires a hardware rework to function correctly. The rework connects FMC_A header pins directly to the FPGA so that they can be accessed by the fabric.

Changes required:

REMOVE: R575, R576, R621, R633, R612, R613

POPULATE: R574, R577, R620, R632, R610, R611

Build instructions

The project is using GNU Make for build and bitstream generation. Change your directory to your targeted carrier and run make.

More information about how to build HDL projects can be found here.

Architecture

The main scope of the HDL design is to provide all the required digital interfaces for the data acquisition board of the prototyping system.

The following block diagram presents the simplified system architecture:

HDL Block Diagram

AXI_LASER_DRIVER IP

The axi_laser_driver IP is responsible to generate a narrow pulse for the laser driver circuit, to control the TIA channel selection on the analog front end (AFE) board, and to synchronize the data acquisition to the generated pulses.

More information about the IP can be found here.

Sample rate 1GSPS
Lane rate 10Gbps
GT reference clock 250MHz
Device clock 250 MHz

Known issues

The Lidar boards do not power up

Problem: The Lidar boards do not power up because the PG_C2M pull-up resistor value on the carrier (Arria 10) is too high.

Solution: On Arria 10 - place a 4k7 ohms resistor in parallel with R5517.

Note:

  1. The PG_C2M can no longer be software controlled. As soon as there is an auxiliary 3V3 on the carrier, the Lidar platform receives the power up command.
  2. This problem only affects Lidar Rev B.
