Honored ContributorPLL error budget
I have 2 boards with 2 FPGA's (each board with its own FPGA). I'm outputting a signal out of each board which should be sync together. each board has its own local oscillator, from which each FPGA pr...

Honored ContributorIf you have two boards with separate oscillators then only the clock frequencies will be approximately equal. There will be no phase/sync relationship between them.
If you need both boards to be 'sync together', you will need to pass the clock (or a signal derived from the clock) from one board to the other and either: use it directly; or: synchronise the logic on the second board to the signal you're sending across. Cheers, Alex
