JESD204B

JESD204B is a standard for high-speed serial interfaces to connect data converters like analog to digital converters (ADCs) and digital to analog converters (DACs) directly to FPGAs. This standard replaces wide parallel buses with fewer serial resulting in reduced pin counts and a simplified PCB layout. With IP cores from our partners, Efinix FPGAs support JESD204B with reliable timing and synchronized signal channels. These features make Efinix FPGAs a strong choice for software-defined radio, test and measurement equipment, and high-precision data systems.

Applications: Medical imaging, test and measurement equipment, professional audio equipment, industrial automation, wireless communication, radar systems
