MULTI-RATE 3.3V, 2.5V LVPECL FREQUENCY SYNTHESIZER
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The ICS843034 is a general purpose, low phase • Dual differential 3.3V LVPECL outputs which can be set
ICS
noise LVPECL synthesizer which can generate
frequencies for a wide variety of applications.The
ICS843034 has a 4:1 input Multiplexer from which
the following inputs can be selected: 1 differential
input, 1 single-ended input, or two crystal
independently for either 3.3V or 2.5V
HiPerClockS™
• 4:1 Input Mux:
1 differential input
1 single-ended input
2 crystal oscillator interfaces
oscillators, thus making the device ideal for frequency
translation or frequency generation. Each differential LVPECL
output pair has an output divider which can be independently
set so that two different frequencies can be generated.
Additionally, each LVPECL output pair has a dedicated power
supply pin so the outputs can run at 3.3V or 2.5V. The
ICS843034 also supplies a buffered copy of the reference
clock or crystal frequency on the single-ended REF_CLK pin
which can be enabled or disabled (disabled by default). The
output frequency can be programmed using either a serial or
parallel programming interface.
• CLK, nCLK pair can accept the following differential
input levels: LVPECL, LVDS, LVHSTL, HCSL, SSTL
• TEST_CLK accepts LVCMOS or LVTTL input levels
• Output frequency range: 35MHz to 750MHz
• Crystal input frequency range: 12MHz to 40MHz
• VCO range: 560MHz to 750MHz
• Parallel or serial interface for programming feedback
divider and output dividers
The phase jitter of the ICS843034 is less than 1ps rms, making
it suitable for use in Fibre Channel, SONET, and Ethernet
applications.
• RMS phase jitter at 333.33MHz, using a 22.222MHz
crystal (12kHz to 20MHz): 0.80ps (typical)
• Supply voltage modes:
Example applications include systems which must support
both FEC and non FEC rates. In 10Gb Fibre Channel, for
example, you can use a 25.5MHz crystal to generate a
159.375MHz reference clock, and then switch to a 20.544MHz
crystal to generate 164.355MHz for 66/64 FEC. Other
applications could include supporting both Ethernet
frequencies and SONET frequencies in an application.When
Ethernet frequencies are needed, a 25MHz crystal can be
used and when SONET frequencies are needed, the input
MUX can be switched to select a 38.88MHz Crystal.
LVPECL outputs (core/outputs):
3.3V/3.3V
3.3V/2.5V
REF_CLK output (core/outputs):
3.3V/3.3V
• 0°C to 70°C ambient operating temperature
• Industrial temperature available upon request
