Using PmodACL1 to read a PmodAD1 Device

[Udayan Mallik]

@artvvb I generated a bit stream for the Eclypse Z7 with two PMODACL2 blocks controlling IO through JA and JB. I now want to use a PMODAD1 device to interact with an analog source. Can I use the PMODACL2 interface to acquire data form the PMODAD1 device?

Hi @Udayan Mallik,

The Pmod ACL2 IP would not be able to acquire data from the Pmod AD1; while they both use the SPI protocol, the two modules have different SPI clock frequencies, registers to manipulate, and different bit lengths of data.

I would instead recommend you use the existing Pmod AD1 IP for the Pmod AD1.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks
