4.3 Summary and Conclusion

The TIDA-010191 design is a space grade multichannel JESD204B compliant clocking reference design that can be used for spaceborne radar imaging and broadband satellite communication systems. This TI Design demonstrates a high-performance (low phase noise) clock generation, using the LMX2615-SP and LMK04832-SP devices. This design also demonstrates the multichannel configurable phase synchronized clocks with skew of less than 10 ps. Finally, the ADC12DJ3200EVMCVAL onboard clock is replaced with TIDA-010191 outputs to demonstrate the impact on system performance. The system SNR is close to the ADC12DJ3200EVMCVAL performance and clock skew at less than 5 ps. The system shows deterministic latency behavior for every power ON cycle with the analog input channel-to-channel skew at less than 10 ps.
