3.1.1.3. STEMlab 125-14 external clock

This STEMlab version is standard STEMlab 125-14 modified in such a way that the ADC and DAC clock can be provided from an external source clock. An external clock should be connected to the Ext ADC CLK- and + pins. According to the ADC spec, external clock signal levels should be LVDS in the range from 1 MHz to 125 MHz.

Note

The OS will not boot without providing an external clock.
