How can we have 600Msamples per second rate with 1.5 2.6 = 4.1ns setup hold timings ?! It's still mystified for me ..

Hello JG,

The delta between setup and hold time on the MAX5891 (600Msps DAC) is (-1.5) + 2.6 = 1.1ns. At 600MSPS NRZ data would have a width of 1.667ns, providing a 567ps margin to meet setup and hold time requirements.
