8.3.7.1 Uncommon Decimation Ratios

The DDCs can be programmed to have unequal, independent decimation ratios. The output data rate is based on the decimation filter with the lowest decimation ratio. The output samples of the DDCs with higher decimation factors are repeated in the output data stream accordingly. For example if DDC0 is set to /4 and DDC1 to /8, then the output data rate of DDC0 is twice as fast as of DDC1 (Fout0 = FS/4 vs Fout1 = FS/8). Therefore the output samples of DDC1 are repeated once in the output data stream as illustrated in Figure 8-21.
