6 TSW1405 Functional Description

The TSW1405 Capture Card is a lower cost capture card than the TSW1400, with reduced memory capacity for storing samples captured from TI High Speed ADC EVMs. The TSW1405 has a Samtec connector to directly connect to the LVDS data bus from the EVM. The TSW1405 does not have connections for CMOS ADC EVMs. The TSW1405 uses the same software GUI as the TSW1400.

The TSW1405 does not have an EEPROM resident on the board to hold an FPGA bit file, but rather will get the bit file downloaded from the software GUI running on a PC at runtime. In this manner the TSW1405 will not need to be reprogrammed when new ADC EVMs or additional capture features become available. The planned FPGA firmware upgrades consists of new files to be downloaded to the software GUI. The TSW1405 does have a footprint for a firmware EEPROM to be installed, if desired.
