hi nishanth, is your question about getting 1 GHz into an SMA for a roach2 board? or roach1?
putting in 1 GHz into the roach2 input comparator is pushing quite a bit beyond it's specificiations. i suggest 500 MHz or less: the roach2 input comparator is ian analog devices ADCM605, with 600ps rise time, minimum pulse width of 1.5 ns, and bandwidth of 500 MHz. best wishes, dan On Fri, Nov 22, 2013 at 2:43 PM, Nishanth Shivashankaran <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi All, > > I wanted to connect a 1GHZ clock to the SMA connector on the Roach.
