Hi everyone,

I could sucessfully synthesize the spectrometer example, now I tried to change input frequency from the original 800MHz to 2000MHz using interleave mode, in order to avoid major changes in the design, I connected o0, o2, o4 and o6 in the pfb block (putting a terminator on the rest on the ADC outputs), after some minutes compiling a timing error appears, very similar that I had before but because of a low freq input clock, this time I'm trying to work with a higher value than design, the error is as follow:

Asterisk (*) preceding a constraint indicates it was not met.
   This may be due to a setup or hold violation.

This same adc_clk_buf and adc_clk_dcm gave me some headaches before with low clock frequency, but that time David George advice me to change in xps_lib/XPS_ROACH_base/pcores/adc_interface_v1_01_a/hdl/vhdl/adc_interface.vhd variables FS_FREQUENCY_MODE and DLL_FREQUENCY_MODE from HIGH to LOW. Now those variables are set in HIGH, so how can I make ADC/ROACH happy with this 2GHz input clock?

Cheers,

Daniel H.
