Hi,

The peripheral clock only used when you cant occupy PLL clk that connected to feed ADC clock. By default, MAX10 will use dedicated clock which is coming from the PLL, and the default frequency is 10Mhz.

If you want 1us interval sampling data, 10Mhz dedicated clock from PLL to ADC clock is sufficient.
