    Thread Summary
    
                The user asked about the division of 8 ADARs into L and R on the Stingray board. The final answer explains that this division is for organizing the SPI buses, with four Quad TRM Cells connected to CSB_L and four to CSB_R, designating the left and right sides of the board.

    why the 8 ADAR's are divided into L and R is there any specific reason for the same.
    

    Is it something like L controls the Beam Vertically and the R controls the Beam horizontally.

      This was just a way to organize the SPI buses for the Quad TRM Cells.  The ADAR1000 can have up to four chips share the same CSB line due it having only 2 chip address pins.  You see four of the Quads are connected to CSB_L and the other four are connected to CSB_R.  The "L" and "R" designate Left side and Right side of the Stingray board.
