1. The level to be set of FS in determined by the “normal” operating frequency (fNOM) of the VCO and Time Unit Generator (see
Logic Block Diagram). Nominal frequency (fNOM) always appears at 1Q0 and the other outputs when they are operated in their
undivided modes (See Table 9). The frequency appearing at the REF and FB inputs will be fNOM when the output connected to
FB is undivided. The frequency of the REF and FB inputs will be fNOM/2 or fNOM/4 when the part is configured for a frequency
multiplication by using a divided output as the FB input.
2. Test measurement levels for the 7B991 are TTL levels (1.5V to 1.5V). Test conditions assume signal transition times of 2 ns or
less and output loading as shown in the AC Test Loads and Waveforms unless otherwise specified.
3. Guaranteed by statistical correlation. Tested initially and after any design or process changes that may affect these parameters.
4. For all three state inputs. HIGH indicates a connection to V , LOW indicates a connection to GND, and MID indicates an open
CC
connections. Internal termination circuitry holds an unconnected input to V /2.
CC
5. When the FS pin is selected HIGH, the REF input must not transition upon power-up until VCC has reached 4.3V.
6. SKEW is defined as the time between the earliest and the latest output transition among all outputs for which the same tU delay
has been selected when all are loaded with 50 pF and terminated with 50Ω to 2.06V.
7. tSKEWPR is defined as the skew between a pair of outputs (XQ0 and XQ1) when all eight outputs are selected for 0tU.
8. tSKEW0 is defined as the skew between outputs when they are selected for 0tU. Other outputs are divided or inverted but not
shifted.
9. CL = 0 pF. For CL = 30 pF, tSKEW0 = 0.35 ns.
10.There are three classes of outputs: Nominal (multiple of tU delay), Inverted (4Q0 and 4Q1 only with 4F0 = 4F1 = HIGH), and
divided (3Qx and 4Qx only in Divide-by-2 or Divide-by-4 mode).
11. tDEV is the output-to-output skew between any two devices operating under the same conditions (VCC ambient temperature, air
flow, etc.)
12.Guaranteed by design.
13.tODCV is the deviation of the output from a 50% duty cycle. Output pulse width variations are included in tSKEW2 and tSKEW4 spec-
ifications.
14.Specified with outputs loaded 30 pF for the 7B99 devices. Devices are terminated through 50Ω to 2.05V.
15.tPWH is measured at 2.0V. tPWL is measured at 0.8V.
16.tORISE and tOFALL measured between 0.8V and 2.0V.
17.tLOCK is the time that is required before synchronization is achieved. This specification is valid only after VCC is stable and within
normal operating limits. This parameter is measured from the application of a new signal or frequency at REF or FB until tPD is
within specified limits.
