[Q0023]
・Tell me clock input timing at start-up.
A.
・A clock can be input anytime after power supplies are turned on. However, if the clock is input after releasing power-down, internal circuit timing starts by a clock input and then the analog block is powered up.

・What are advantages and disadvantages when the capacitance connected to the VCOM pin becomes smaller?
A.
・Advantage: The startup time is faster than normal.
 Disadvantage:
 1 - It is more susceptible to noise influence. SNR performance may be degraded.
 2 - Transient of "pop" noise shall be increased upon power up.

[Q0036]
・What is the definition of Group Delay? Is there any reason for that they don't have min/max values?
A.
・The definition of the group delay is the time from data coming in the device to data output to the device at their respective pins. This usually shows in number of 1/fs unit.This is mainly caused by the taps of the digital filter. Therefore there are no variations.
