DS3106
Line Card Timing IC
General Description
Features
Advanced DPLL Technology
The DS3106 is a low-cost timing IC for telecom line
cards. The device accepts two reference clocks from
dual redundant system timing cards, continually
monitors both inputs, and performs manual reference
switching if the primary reference fails. The highly
programmable DS3106 supports numerous input and
output frequencies including frequencies required for
SONET/SDH, Synchronous Ethernet (1G, 10G, and
100Mbps), wireless base stations, and CMTS
systems. PLL bandwidths from 18Hz to 400Hz are
supported, and a wide variety of PLL characteristics
and device features can be configured to meet the
needs of many different applications.
Programmable PLL Bandwidth: 18Hz to 400Hz
Manual Reference Switching
Holdover on Loss of All Input References
Frequency Conversion Among SONET/SDH,
PDH, Ethernet, Wireless, and CMTS Rates
Two Input Clocks
CMOS/TTL Signal Format (≤ 125MHz)
Numerous Input Clock Frequencies Supported
Ethernet xMII: 2.5, 25, 125, 156.25MHz
SONET/SDH: 6.48, N x 19.44, N x 51.84MHz
PDH: N x DS1, N x E1, N x DS2, DS3, E3

Custom Clock Rates: Any Multiple of 2kHz Up
to 125MHz
The DS3106 register set is backward compatible with
Semtech’s ACS8526 line card timing IC. The DS3106
pinout is similar but not identical to the ACS8526.
Two Output Clocks
One CMOS/TTL Output (≤ 125MHz)
One LVDS/LVPECL Output (≤ 312.50MHz)
Two Optional Frame-Sync Outputs: 2kHz, 8kHz
Numerous Output Clock Frequencies Supported
Ethernet xMII: 2.5, 25, 125, 156.25, 312.5MHz
