# Introduction to XADC <span style="font-size:16px;">Xilinx 7 series FPGAs have a built-in ADC, called </span>**<span style="font-size:16px;">XADC</span>**<span style="font-size:16px;">. The Artix-7 series FPGA contains two 12-bit, 1MSPS XADC, which can be configured to sample two external analog channels at the same time, and can also be used as a normal User I/O port. XADC has a variety of operation modes to choose from. For example, the external step trigger synchronous sampling mode can receive different types of analog input signals. XADC can also directly obtain the temperature and power supply voltage of the FPGA chip to monitor the internal conditions of the FPGA. These measurements The received data will be stored in the internal status register, which can be accessed through DRP (Dynamic Reconfigura TIon Port) or through JTAG TAP. XADC in defult mode is dedicated to monitor the power supply voltage and chip temperature on the chip, and </span><span style="font-size:16px;color:#FF0000;">no special configuration is required.</span> <div style="width:100%;text-align:center;">  </div> <div style="width:100%;text-align:center;"> <span style="font-size:22px;">XADC register interface</span> </div> # XADC system design - **<span style="font-size:16px;">Project name:</span>**<span style="font-size:16px;"> XADC use;</span> - **<span style="font-size:16px;">Specific requirements:</span>**<span style="font-size:16px;"> Realize the ip core of xadc to collect input data and output sampling results;</span> - **<span style="font-size:16px;">System design:</span>**<span style="font-size:16px;"> Perf-V development board is equipped with Artix-7 series FPGA. In this project, the XADC is configured to perform a simple voltage measurement on the A5 pin of Perf-V. The 1.25V inside the FPGA is used as the reference voltage. The P1 high-speed socket contains 2 pairs of high-speed differential input AD sampling; P2 is compatible with Arduino, and contains 6 single-ended inputs or 6 pairs of differential input AD sampling.</span> <div style="width:100%;text-align:center;">  </div> <div style="width:100%;text-align:center;"> <span style="font-size:22px;">XADC system design diagram</span> </div> # Perf-V development board **<span style="font-size:16px;">Perf-V development board uses Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA chip</span>**<span style="font-size:16px;">.
