ADC3661: ADC 3661 output data timing

Part Number: ADC3661
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADC3662, ADC3663

Dear E2E Team!

we use ADC3661 in 1-wire SLVDS output bit mapper. ADC digital data output based on DCLKIN, DCLK and FCLK.

Sampling clock falling edge to DCLK rising edge (tPD depends on sampling clock falling edge to DCLKIN falling edge (tCDCLK)

If tCDCLK <2.5 ns the delay tPD  (first rising edge of DCLK after sampling clock falling edge) amounts to 3ns+ TDCLKtCDCLK . This delay is larger as TDCLKIN  , in our case 1/64 MHz.

Because tPD TDCLK we infer timing variation between DCLKIN and DCLK. How is the duty cycle of DCLK wrt DCLKIN? We expect fDCLK = fDCLKI !?

For implementation can we expect that serial data transition on ADC output is a result of DCLK edge event. This is very hard to understand because tCD min = 0 ns specify no delay between data and DCLK.

From my point of view a data transfer using DDR register appears uncertain without delay between data and DCLK!? Can you provide any insights of implementation for digital data acquisition?
