My own experience is that 200 S/s on two channels is very difficult to achieve from the host. Separate streamers may help, but you will likely need to move to DPDK to get the best performance. I have not tried DPDK recently, but when I tried it a few years ago, the performance was excellent, but it

Hi Michael, One calibration procedure could be that you simply add a digital phase offset to your 2nd Tx channel until your oscilloscope traces line up to your satisfaction. It would be nice if the default FPGA image included a simple Rx & Tx complex scalar for this exact purpose (inside the DDC &

Hi Marcus, Yes, the cables are identical, we also experimented with Phase stable test cables but did not see any improvement. We understand there will be some residual phase errors, but the RF coming out with a 2.64ns delta or ~135 degree phase shift @ 144MHz seems like more than that. Is that lev

[USRP-users] Custom images with X410_400

Hello, I am looking to increase my custom image from a sampling rate of 250 to 500 MS/S. I am looking to get some clarification on a few things. Looking through the verilog, it appears both the 200 and 400 images have the same master clock rate of 250 MHz, but with the 400 image there are twice
