Hello all! New to the forum, but not to Nexys FPGA's. I have a project I'm working on and the only thing I am unclear about is how I am going to get my input signal to the board. I need the controller to recognise a varying rectified square wave (essentially just pulses that can change in frequency). I'm thinking of using the onboard ADC as a 1-bit converter giving me a 0 when there is no voltage and a 1 when the pulse arrives. Is this possible? I am not familliar with using ADC's. Does the voltage the ADC use for referance have to come from the board itself or can I use external voltage from the signal generator I have? Any input is greatly appreciated!
