Thank you for response. It looks like I have to design for Arria V instead of Cyclone V. That's a very bad information.
I actually intend to use the ADC in Quad Channel Mode. I want to connect 2 antennas after demodulation that is with I/Q separated (250MHz baseband bandwidth).

Do you have to use this particular Hittite part? There are other ADCs out there that clock at this rate. Perhaps one with a JESD204 (serdes) interface?
Look at the devices from Texas Instruments and NXP. Analog devices also has fast ADCs.
The e2v part I referred you to can be operated as dual-channels at 1GHz clock rate. You could operate the device at 1GHz clock rate, operate in 1:2 output data demux mode, and receive 16-bits at 500Mbps, or you could operate it at 500MHz clock rate in 1:1 output mode and receive 8-bits and 500Mbps per channel.
Cheers,
