Hi,

I programmed Spartan chip to produce serial data ( main_Clock, Data
Clock, Data and Tag ) stream for a DAC. I need to make this system
work with out wires. The main clock is 3MHz, Data clock is 1.5MHz. Can
anybody advice me how to make it digital wireless ( Transmitter plus
receiver). I have not done anything like this before. The DAC will be
at 6 feet away from the Spartan chip.

Thanks
John

The best way is to modulate your signal at 5.8GHz and embed the phase
correction data into the data stream.   I assume the data flow is one-
way only.

Hi,

Yes, The data is flowing in one way. Would you please suggest some
hardware. I am also thinking about bluetooth. Please advice!

Regards,
John

Bluetooth will not give you 1.5MHz data rate.  In fact, 5.8GHz might
not be enough, but the next ISM band is 25GHz.

Any suggestions regarding Hardware?

The Atmel ATR2820 RF Transceiver would be a good start, but I can't
design your apps without knowing the full spec.

One-off project or a few dozen or a few hundred thousand? Per week?

A hobby/learning/grow-your-brain project or for sale (and use) by a
third party?

Will UL/CSA/EC/FCC/etc. certification be required?

Are the consequences of a communications failure: none, benign, pretty
bad, or someone dies?

Is this for a medical application (noting that your IP block is from
Wayne State University Medical Center)?

With that out of the way, if you can grind down the data rate a bit
(no pun intended), you're close to being able to use an off-the-shelf
solution like an XBee module, advertised to top out at 1 Mbps.

Take a look at the RF data rate of 250Kbps.  Does it mean the same for
me as for you?

Hi,

What do you think about Texas Instrument's IEEE 802.16 (WiMax) chip
set ( TRF1X/2X RF Chipset ).
 Please advice!

John

No.

Maybe.

Forget about Bluetooth, WiFi, XYZBee, WiAnything.  If you want
slicings or channelings, you need 25GHz.  To get 1.5MHz data rate, you
need the full bandwidth for 5.8GHz.
