9 years ago --- Quote Start --- All three ADC chips must be driven by the same source clock, so the DCO of the one you use has a 0PPM difference from the other chips. From your description, there is no difference between the three ADCs, so there's no reason I could say one is better, but no, I assume they're laid out similar and it wouldn't matter. I assume DCO is the clock, what's the FCO? I'm not sure without knowing it's functionality. --- Quote End --- Hi Rysc, Yes, DCO is the source sycnrous clock, together with the output LVDS data. The FCO is the fram clock output, which will indicate the data word edge. Normally, FCO would be process like LVDS output data channel. That's why i said it will consume fpga lvds_rx channels.
