As explained in detail several times already, it would be better to have one issue for each item instead of one big errata, and use milestones and labels.

@gkasprow asked in email

To do tests of Allaki, I'd need sine wave at the DAC output. The sooner, the better. What about clocking DAC from 100MHz source?

replace ADT7420UCPZ-R2 with ADT7420UCPZ-RL7TR-ND

Not changed in current schematics.

This board has a lot of pads for potential matching components. At the frequency this AFE is designed to operate at, these are unnecessary. Please remove them from the schematic + layout to simplify things and save space

@hartytp @jbqubit Is this still relevant?

FR408 on the RF layer, FR4 everywhere else.

FR4 is on all layers.

inductors on the +-12V

Placed on RTM.

Input/output connector caps should be 2*1nF on each connector

Now there are 2*10nF on inputs, + additional 10pF on output.

add current limiting resistor for attenuator output

@hartytp @jbqubit Is this still smth to do, or are 0 Ohm resistors on output fine for this purpose?
