Hi Ricardo, Generally what we refer to as the iADC is 1Gsps (or 2 interleaved): https://casper.berkeley.edu/wiki/ADC2x1000-8
Is this what you're using, or is it our national ADC at 3Gsps? https://casper.berkeley.edu/wiki/ADC1x3000-8 Have you tried loading the bof file in SVN without making any changes? https://casper.berkeley.edu/svn/trunk/ref_designs_tutorials/workshop_2010/roach_tut3_wideband_spec/r_spec_2048_r105_2010_Jul_26_1205.bof If you're using the National board, you'll need to switch out the ADC yellow block as well.
