Synchronization of two AD9613-EVAL

Question

Hello 
 I wanna synchron 2 AD9613-EVAL for sampling synchronously, please tell me what should I do if: 
 1- I wanna synchron them with an external clock? 
 2- I wanna synchron them with ref signal or synchron pin or any feature in AD9613-EVAL? 
 I prefer to do first method because my system has the one clock that all of components work with this clock 
 Please guide me even if you know one of this methods 
 Best regards

Hi Humsin 
 Thanks for using AD9613. 
 You can sync multiple AD9613 ADCs using either method you mentioned. Since your system already using a single clock source, the straightforward and reliable method i s to provide the same low-jitter external sample clock to both AD9613-EVAL boards. To keep timing aligned, use equal-length cables or a clock buffer like the ADCLK948 to split the clock signal evenly and minimize skew between clock paths. 
 Keep in mind that if all ADCs receive the same sample clock, they will naturally sample in sync even without using the SYNC pin because they share the same clock edge.)
