2.3.2.3 Phase Delay Adjustment Options

Make the clocking design flexible enough to control the delay between the device clocks to maintain the SYSREF setup and hold time and provide the consistent low skew between the channels. LMX2615-SP has a SYSREF delay step of 9 ps and has a MASH SEED feature to provide the delay on the device clocks.

To adjust the delay between the DCLK and having a deterministic latency, use the MASH SEED feature in the LMX2615-SP. If there is a skew between the SYSREF clock signals, then adjust the SYSREF through the SYSREF delay to minimize the skew.

The ADC12DJ3200-SP has an aperture delay (tad) feature, which can also provide the delay at the input clock and adjust the skew, but in this design the delay is adjusted by the input clock itself.
