Mixed DIN/DOUT board -- clock and latch chaining?
I'm working on a sort of hybrid DINX6/DOUTX4 board and I have a question on how to treat SC and RC. The BLM is proof that chaining the clock works even when the DIN/DOUT parts are not equal in length. But on DIN/OUTX4 boards sold by SmashTV normally one splits the J8/9 ribbon with an intermediate header. On this board I have the choice to go serial or parallel, so I wonder what the best way is, or if it really matters.
Many thanks,
