Thank you so much Johnathan. Is that means the signal is converted before ADC? I'm quite confused about how the FPGA configuration connect with host code. The FPGA bitstream is loaded by usrp.source_c or usrp.source_s. Where is the FPGA bitstream loaded into? How does the usrp source class load

Krishna, My understanding is that we can regard the sample rate of the DAC and ADC as 100MHz (although the DAC uses internally a larger rate, this is what I have read). Thus the rate at which samples are leaving or entering the RF sections at are 100MHz. The maximum rate at the host side is
