The key parameters of the ADC required to calculate end to end latency are:
- The fixed delay from SYSREF to LEMC (TTXLEMC)
- The fixed delay from analogue input to LEMC (TTXIN)
- The delay from LEMC to JESD204C serial output (TTXOUT)
The delay from SYSREF to LEMC and analogue data in to LEMC must be fixed for a Subclass 1 device but the delay from LEMC to JESD204C serial data out can vary because it is compensated for in the receiver during alignment to LEMC. See the following figure.
