FemtoClock NG Jitter Attenuator
8V19N474
and Clock Synthesizer
Datasheet
Description
Features
The 8V19N474 is a fully integrated FemtoClock NG Jitter Attenuator
and Clock Synthesizer designed as a high-performance clock
solution for conditioning and frequency/phase management of
10/40/100/400 Gigabit-Ethernet line cards. The device delivers
excellent phase noise performance as required to drive physical
layer devices, and provides the clean clock frequencies
(e.g., 625MHz, 500MHz, 312.5MHz, 250MHz, 156.25MHz, and
125MHz).
▪ High-performance clock RF-PLL
— Optimized for low phase noise: -153dBc/Hz (1MHz offset;
156.25MHz clock)
— Integrated phase noise (12kHz–20MHz) of 75fs RMS typical
▪ Dual-PLL architecture
— 1st-PLL stage with external VCXO for clock jitter attenuation
— 2nd-PLL stage with internal FemtoClock NG PLL at 2500MHz
▪ 6 output banks with a total of 12 outputs, organized in:
A two-stage PLL architecture supports both jitter attenuation and
frequency multiplication. The first stage PLL is the jitter attenuator
and uses an external VCXO for best possible phase noise
characteristics. The second stage PLL locks on the VCXO-PLL
output signal and synthesizes the target frequency. This PLL has a
VCO circuit at 2500MHz.
— Two clock banks with one integer frequency divider and three
differential outputs
— Two clock banks with one integer frequency divider and two
differential outputs
— One clock bank with one fractional output divider and one
differential output
The 8V19N474 generates the output clock signals from the VCO by
frequency division. Five independent frequency dividers are
available: four support integer-divider ratios and one integer as well
as fractional-divider ratios. Delay circuits can be used for achieving
alignment and controlled phase delay between clock signals. The
two redundant inputs are monitored for activity.
— One VCXO-PLL output bank with one selectable LVDS/two
LVCMOS outputs
▪ Four output banks contain a phase delay circuit with steps of the
VCO clock period (400ps)
▪ Supported clock output frequencies include:
Four selectable clock switching modes are provided to handle clock
input failure scenarios. Auto-lock, individually programmable output
frequency dividers, and phase adjustment capabilities are added for
additional flexibility. The 8V19N474 is configured through an SPI
interface and reports lock and signal loss status in internal registers
and via a lock detect (LOCK) output. Internal status bit changes can
also be reported via the nINT output. The device is ideal for driving
converter circuits in wireless infrastructure, radar/imaging, and
instrumentation/medical applications. The device is a member of the
high-performance clock family from IDT.
