As @gkasprow mentioned in #253 I made simulations for different FPGA output standards to check if it is possible to connect parallel LTC2000 (with internal LVDS termination) working with 150 MHz clock.
First configuration was 4 DAC to 1 IO bank of Artix-7. Only BLVDS standard meets the requirement of input voltage range (min +/- 200 mV). With 3 DAC we can use also SSTL18.
I'm leaving results for future discussion.

Example of schematic with 3 DAC
BLVDS simulation. Bit rate 600 Mbps.
SSTL18 simulation. Bit rate 450 Mbps
