SMT390-VP User Manual

interconnections are based on the RocketIO standard used on Xilinx Virtex-II Pro
FPGAs. Rocket Serial Links uses Low Voltage Differential Signalling (LVDS).
The SMT390-VP uses a subset of the RSL specification. Two RSLs are combined to
form a 5GBit/s RSLCC. One RSLCC per ADC channel is implemented on the
SMT390-VP

. The RSLCC is thus capable to transfer the raw data stream of the ADC

in real time.
The connector used for the RSL interface is a 0.8mm pitch differential Samtec
connector. The part number for this connector is: QSE-014-01-F-D-DP-A. The RSL
connector takes the place of the optional 3

rd

and 4

th

SHB connector on a TIM module.

The following diagram shows the position of the RSL connectors on the SMT390-VP:
