Product Details

Analog Devices’ JESD204 Interface Framework is a system-level software and HDL package targeted at simplifying system development by providing a performance optimized IP framework that integrates complex hardware such as high speed converters, transceivers and clocks with various FPGA platforms.

The JESD204 Interface Framework provides an open platform that includes dynamic configuration capabilities to allow for system changes during operation and constraint handling to support built-in component models such as clocks and converters. These capabilities improve system-level integration and proof-of-concept testing leading to faster time-to-market.

Direct support is available for Commercial License holders. Contact your local ADI representative.

GPL 2 allows you to use the core for any purpose, but you must release anything else that links to the JESD204 core (this would normally be your algorithmic IP). You do not need to sign anything purchase anything to use the JESD204 core under the GPL license.
