I have no questions - all I can say is that: - I like your approach of clarifying details of the AUDDDS clock with Amlogic - and I fully agree with your conclusion that (depending on what Amlogic says) we need one more link from the PLL driver to the AUDDDS clock Thank you for your persistence with this series, I'm sure it will pay off in the long run!
