I have a clock source inputting a fast ADC for data acquisition purposes. I am considering using two fast ADC's for parallel measurements, and am wondering if I can use the same clock source to split the input to both ADC's, or if it is advisable to just have two separate clock sources.
If I can use the same clock source, I will obtain the following benefits:
- Less power lines (critical to minimize this as much as possible)
- If clock source is shared between ADC's I can put them in two separate boxes and can be better isolated.
- Costs less.
Thanks in advance everyone!
