''''Clocking'''

The clock input is differential, with self-biasing DC levels.
Best driven with 50% duty cycle, AC-coupled differential input.

Options:
* 1GHz sine wave on-board oscillator, PECL divide-by-two
* External 500MHz or 1GHz sine wave input
* PLL frequency multiplier from (i.e.) 10MHz reference input
