7 UNEQUAL DECIMATION R/W 0 This bit enables configuration of DDC0..3 to have unequad decimation factors.
0: Common decimation factor for all DDCs
1: Unequal decimation factors
6 0 R/W 0 Must write 0
5-4 # OF DDCS R/W 00 This register configures the # of active DDCs
00: Dual DDC Mode
01: Quad DDC Mode
10: Single DDC Mode
11: not used
3-0 DECIMATION (COMMON) R/W 0000 This register bit set the decimation filter factors for all active DDCs.
0000: DDC bypass
0001: Decimation by 2
0010: Decimation by 4
...

4 UPDATE NYQUIST ZONE R/W 0 This field must be pulsed after the Nyquist zone if programmed. A 0 to 1 transition on this bit copies the NYQUIST ZONE filed to an internal register.
3 0 R/W 0 Must write 0
2-0 NYQUIST ZONE R/W 000 This field controls the nyquist zone of operation. The internal calibration of the device depends on the NYQUIST ZONE of the signal being sampled. This field must be programmed based on the operating Nyquist zone
000: First Nyquist zone (from 0 to Fs/2)
001: Second Nyquist (from Fs/2 to Fs)
010: Third Nyquist (from Fs to 3Fs/2)
011:Fourth Nyquist (from 3Fs/2 to 2Fs)

7-0 DDCx NCO FREQUENCYy [48:0] R/W 0 These register bits configure the 48-bit frequency words for the four DDCs/NCOs. The format is little endian.
7-0 DDCx NCO PHASEy [15:0] R/W 0 These register bits configure the starting phase of the four frequency words for the four DDCs/NCOs. The format is little endian. The phase value is: 90° / <16-bit register>
