If I have a working FMC150 reference design running on the Zedboard and I then replace the FMC150 with an FMC151 will the FMC150 reference design still work but just have a DC-coupled output?  We do not want to switch to a different reference design if we move to the FMC151 card.  I am aware that the DC-coupled outputs are adjustable via an extra chip on the FMC151 but assuming that we do not care about adjusting the outputs is the FMC151 a simple drop-in replacement with no changes required in PC software, Zynq software, or HDL from original FMC150 reference design?

Dear Sir,


This is the idea indeed. The offset compensation chips are on the i2c bus so the software modification to do so would be pretty straightforward. It should be a drop in replacement assuming indeed.


Best Regards,
Arnaud
