What is the SyncDrive (Plus) Digital Phase-Locked Loop (DPLL) used for?
A. In configurations that do not include separate signals for clocking information, it is sometimes possible to use the DPLL to extract clocking information from the encoded data itself. There are special requirements for the data encoding techniques and clock speeds to be used with the DPLL. The DPLL can be used as the source for the received data clock by making the appropriate bit selections in the clock_source variable in the channel configuration structure.
