PRELIMINARY
CLOCK GENERATOR FOR CAVIUM PROCESSORS
ICS840S06I
General Description
Features
The ICS840S06I is a PLL-based clock generator
• Six LVCMOS/ LVTTL outputs, 20Ω typical output impedance
- One selectable core clock for the processor
- One selectable clock for the PCI/ PCI-X bus
- One 125MHz clock reference for GbE MAC
- Three 25MHz clock references for GbE PHY
S
IC
specifically designed for Cavium Networks SoC
processors. This high performance device is
optimized to generate the processor core reference
clock, the DDR reference clocks, the PCI/PCI-X bus
HiPerClockS™
• Selectable external crystal or differential (single-ended) input
clocks, and the clocks for both the Gigabit Ethernet MAC and PHY.
The clock generator offers ultra low-jitter, low-skew clock outputs,
and edge rates that easily meet the input requirements for the
OCTEON processors. The output frequencies are generated from
a 25MHz external input source or an external 25MHz parallel
resonant crystal. The extended temperature range of the
ICS840S06I supports telecommunication, networking, and
storage requirements.
source
• Crystal oscillator interface designed for 25MHz, parallel
resonant crystal
• Differential input pair (CLK, nCLK) accepts LVPECL, LVDS,
LVHSTL, SSTL, HCSL input levels
• Internal resistor bias on nCLK pin allows the user to drive CLK
input with external single-ended (LVCMOS/ LVTTL) input levels
• Full 3.3V or mixed 3.3V core/2.5V output supply mode
• -40°C to 85°C ambient operating temperature
• Available in lead-free (RoHS 6) packages
Applications
• Systems using OCTEON MIPS64 Broadband Processors
• Networking, control and storage equipment, including routers,
switches, application-aware gateways, triple-play gateways,
WLAN and 3G/4G access and aggregation devices, storage
arrays, storage networking equipment, servers, and intelligent
NICs
• 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless for home data and multimedia
Pin Assignment
distribution
• QoS for high quality Voice, Video, and Data service
• Next-generationPON, VDSL2, and Cable networks
• High-performance NAS
• Audio/Video Storage and distribution
• Consumer space media server
