Datasheet
The XADC core within the Spartan-7 is a dual channel 12-bit analog-to-digital converter capable
of operating at 1 MSPS. Either channel can be driven by any of the analog inputs connected to the
shield pins. The XADC core is controlled and accessed from a user design via the Dynamic
Reconfiguration Port (DRP). The DRP also provides access to voltage monitors that are present
on each of the FPGA’s power rails, and a temperature sensor that is internal to the FPGA. For
more information on using the XADC core, refer to the Xilinx document titled 7 Series FPGAs and
Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC XADC Dual 12-Bit 1 MSPS Analog-to-Digital Converter. A demo
that uses the XADC core is available on the Arty S7 resource center.
