Hi RSree,
Thanks for the reply. It would need two ATX PLLs for sure. But can one of them act as a transmit PLL to clock two GXT channels while other is being used as a clock buffer to clock the other two channels? This is shown in Figure 4.PLL Configuration Example where one of the ATX PLL is shown as a buffer.
The clock network which I am referring to is also shown in Figure 141.Main and Adjacent ATX PLL IP Instances to Drive 6 GXT Channels of
Thanks
