best word clock configuration

[pie55]

HI,
What's the best config for word clock using a Lynx Aurora 16 and 96 I/O with a core pcie and accel pcie card.
Should I output the wordclock from the Aurora to the in of the 96 and use the Aurora synced internally
or
should I do it opposite and take the word clock from out of the 96 to the in of the aurora and sync the 96 internally.
Thanks

The clock in the 96 interface is not very super nice so I would GUESS that it's better to use some other master clock.

What's gonna do the most important conversion? The most accurate clock is in almost all cases the internal clock.

Most important conversion in my opinion is the one that drives DA converter. After all, that is the one you use for monitoring :) Usually it takes a great external clock to outdo a mediocre internal clock, but that's just what 96 clock is -- mediocre. Not bad but not good either.

Try both ways and keep which you like the best.
