Description
Pin Configuration
The ICS2495 Clock Generator is an integrated circuit dual
phase-lockedloop frequencysynthesizer capableof generating
16 video frequencies and 4 memory clock frequencies for use
withhigh performance videodisplay systems. UtilizingCMOS
technology to implement all linear, digital and memory func-
tions, the ICS2495 provides a low-power, small-footprint,
low-cost solutiontothegenerationofvideo dotclocks. Outputs
arecompatiblewith XGA, VGA, EGA, MCGA, CGA, MDA,
as well as the higher frequencies needed for advanced applica-
tions in desktop publishing and workstation graphics. Provi-
sion is made via a single level custom mask to implement
customer specific frequency sets. Phase-locked loop circuitry
permits rapid glitch-free transitions between clock frequencies.

In addition to providing 16 clock rates, the ICS2495 has
provisions to multiplex an externally-generated signal source
into the VCLK signal path. Internal phase-locked frequencies
continue to remain locked attheir presetvalues whenthis mode
is selected. This feature permits instantaneous transition from
an external frequency to an internally-generated frequency.

as an external clock generated by the ATE tester can be fed
through, permitting synchronous testing of the entire system.
