Sampling MAX 10 TSD using ADC Control Core running at 1 Msps
I am using the ADC Control Core (ADCCC) to sample all 8+1 ADC inputs at 1 Msps. Note that I specifically want to use the ADC Control Core, rather than the other ADC IP blocks. The (UG-M10ADC) ADC User Guide explains reading the TSD but is somewhat ambiguous about how you can do it and leaves questions unanswered. My sequencer starts ADCCC conversions in a continuous 10-pass cycle. Each cycle step converts and reads 1 sample from each of 9 channels plus one unused sample time. Therefore each channel produces 1 sample every 10 us under sequencer control. This works fine. I now want to add reading of the Temperature Sensing Diode (TSD) though ADC1. The procedure it looks like I can use is: (1) read the TSD using my 1 Msps ADC so long as I only do 1 TSD conversion every 20 us (50 kHz), (2) average 64 of these 20 us-interval samples to produce 1 temperature measurement every 1280 us. My questions are: (a) Is it correct that I can use this procedure? (b) What is the ADC Control Core channel code for COMMAND_CHANNEL to read the TSD? I have read through UG-M10ADC, other MAX 10 documentation and everything I can find on the internet but cannot get answers to these. Thanks.1.2KViews1like1Comment
