FemtoClock™ SAS/SATA Clock Generator
ICS843442I
DATA SHEET
General Description
Features
The ICS843442I is a low jitter, high performance clock
generator and a member of the FemtoClock™family of
silicon timing products. The ICS843442I is designed
for use in applications using the SAS and SATA
interconnect. The ICS843442I uses an external,
• Designed for use in SAS, SAS-2, and SATA systems
• Center ( 0.25%) Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC)
• Down (-0.23% or -0.5%) SSC
S
IC
HiPerClockS™
• Two differential 3.3V LVPECL output pairs
25MHz, parallel resonant crystal to generate two selectable output
frequencies: 75MHz and 150MHz. This silicon based approach
provides excellent frequency stability and reliability. The ICS843442I
features down and center spread spectrum (SSC) clocking
techniques.
• Crystal oscillator interface designed for 25MHz (CL = 18pF)
frequency
• External fundamental crystal frequency ensures high reliability
and low aging
• Selectable output frequencies: 75MHz, 150MHz
• Output frequency is tunable with external capacitors
Applications
• RMS phase jitter at 150MHz (integrated from 12kHz to 20MHz):
• SAS/SATA Host Bus Adapters
1.07ps (typical)
• SATA Port Multipliers
• 3.3V operating supply
• SAS I/O Controllers
• -40°C to 85°C ambient operating temperature
• Available in lead-free (RoHS 6) package
• TapeDrive and HDD Array Controllers
• SAS Edge and Fanout Expanders
• HDDs and TapeDrives
• Disk Storage Enterprise
