2. SDI II Intel® FPGA IP Design Example Detailed Description

The SDI II Intel® FPGA IP core includes these design examples for Intel® Arria® 10 devices.
  • Parallel loopback with external VCXO
  • Parallel loopback without external VCXO
  • Serial loopback

Features

  • For HD/3G-SDI single rate and triple rate designs, you can choose either CMU or fPLL as the TX PLL.
  • All designs use LED status for early debugging stage.
  • The simplex serial loopback designs include RX and TX options. To use RX or TX only components, remove the irrelevant blocks from the designs.
