More Questions About the AD9161

I would still like the first set of questions I sent to you earlier to be answered but I have encountered a new set of questions I need answered in order to use the AD9161.

While I was connecting the AD9161 in my schematic and looking at AD916(2,4)-FMCC-EBZ RevC Schematic.pdf as a reference design guide, I realized there were a few things that are not really shown.

1.  What are pins F1, F2 and  J10, J9 really connected to?  I can not see that they are connected to anything in the schematic.

2.  I want to connect the differential outputs pins A7 and A6 to the I and Q differential inputs to the ADL5375 modulator.

How do you suggest I go about doing this?

3.  I am looking at the reference schematic and I am a little in the dark about the power up sequence of the AD9161 and the circuitry that does that.  Can you steer me in the right direction?

Thank you for answering ALL of my questions.
