The three lines of the interface are ''SYNC'', ''SCLK'', and ''D_in''. A write to the DAC begins with a falling edge of ''SYNC''. The next 19 bits (counted off by ''SCLK'') are saved into a shift register The next transfer begins on another falling edge of ''SYNC'', but transfers do not overlap or interrupt. A minimum of 200ns is required between exchanges. ''SCLK'' is ignored except during the 19 shift cycles. The minimum clock pulse width is 13ns high and 13ns low, yielding a maximum frequency of 77MHz theoretically. In actual fact the maximum clock frequency is 30MHz and the maximum word frequency is 1.2MHz.
