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 On Thu, Feb 13, 2014 at 5:54 PM, Gerry Harp <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Dan and all > > This looks very cool.
