The sampling clock (CLK) phase may be delayed internally to the ADC up to 825 ps in ECM. This feature helps the system designer remove small imbalances in clock distribution traces at the board level when multiple ADCs are used, or to simplify complex system functions such as beam steering for phase-array antennas.
Additional delay in the clock path also creates additional jitter when using the sampling clock phase adjust. Because the sampling clock phase adjust delays all clocks, including the DCLKs and output data, the user is strongly advised to use the minimal amount of adjustment and verify the net benefit of this feature in their system before relying on it.
