Hi Experts,

Good day.

I need your help with the frequency information for SYSREF pins.

What should be the required frequency?

Keep safe.

Hi Josel,

It seems SYSREF section was left out of the datasheet here. This function should be the exact same as in the ADC3444 datasheet. Please refer the customer to section 9.3.2.1 Using the SYSREF Input for more details. The main idea is this SYSREF input will align the internal clock divider (if used). If the clock divider is set to divide-by-1, then SYSREF is not needed.

If single shot, it can be any frequency as the reset occurs on a low→high transition. If periodic, the SYSREF frequency MUST be an integer multiple of the divided clock's frequency.
