4.2 Clocking Architecture
The board has multiple clocking options to allow for flexible testing and configuration. On each channel, the user can select either
the on-board programmable clock, on-board 74.25-MHz crystal oscillator (for HD-SDI/SMPTE 292M), a clock provided by the
FPGA, or an external clock. The on-board programmable clock plays a useful role in the auto rate detection mechanism, which
dynamically reprograms the reference clock to the correct frequency, based on the incoming SDI data rate.
When transmitting the video test patterns generated by the FPGA, either the programmable clock, external clock or on-board
crystal oscillator (only for HD-SDI) should be used.
