Hi,
I'm looking into using SN65LV1023A 10 bit serializer in my design to reduce the number of interconnects between two PCB assemblies. The parallel data I'm sending has low data rate (<< TCLK, TCLK = 24MHz). But, the data is asynchronous relative to TCLK.
My question is; should I use external FlipFlops to sync the data to TCLK? or just rely on the device to latch the data internally?
In both cases I can't guarantee setup and hold times.
Thanks,
J
