During this period, work focused on enhancing the analogdevicesinc/hdl repository by introducing a configurable NUM_LANES parameter to support single-lane operation for the AD4080 device. Using Verilog and leveraging expertise in FPGA development and hardware design, the developer implemented conditional routing of SERDES inputs and dynamic unpacking of deserialized data based on the selected lane count. This approach reduced wiring complexity and hardware utilization for single-lane configurations while maintaining compatibility with the existing AXI/PHY stack. The changes were thoroughly documented in a detailed commit, ensuring clarity for future integration and expanding deployment flexibility for various hardware scenarios.
