DAC38RF82EVM: The DAC38RF8xEVM sync was toggling, and the DAC has no signal output

Part Number: DAC38RF82EVM

I encountered difficulties in using DAC38RF8xEVM. After the JESD204b link was established, SYNC kept toggling, and DAC had no signal output.


Clock circuit adopts On-Board VCXO Clock Mode (CMODE4) in DAC38RF8xEVM to change the VCXO of the board to 120MHz and change the register Settings. The VCO frequency is 2.5GHz, the clock output to the DAC DACCLK+ frequency is 2.5GHz, the SYSREF+ is 9.765625MHz, the bypass DAC's PLL.

JESD204b config

Lane Rate =12500.00MHz

Dual DAC,real input,4 Lanes,1x interpolation is 2500
