hi gerry,

there are three adc chips and 12 analog inputs on the snap board
(no zdoc needed).

each of these three adc's can be configured as

a) quad adc, for a total of 12 inputs at 250 Msps,

or

b) dual adc,  for a total of  6 inputs at 500 Msps,

or

c) single adc, for a total of 3 inputs at 1Gsps,

best wishes,

dan
