Clock Generator for Cavium Processors
ICS8430S07I
DATA SHEET
General Description
Features
The ICS8430S07I is a PLL-based clock generator
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 clocks, and
• One selectable differential LVPECL output pair for DDR
S
533/400/667
IC
HiPerClockS™
• Six LVCMOS/ LVTTL outputs, 15Ω 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
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
CN3005/CN3010/CN3020 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
ICS8430S07I supports telecommunication, networking, and storage
requirements.
• Selectable external crystal or differential (single-ended) input
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
• RMS phase jitter @ 125MHz, using a 25MHz crystal
(1.875MHz - 20MHz): 0.78ps (typical), QD output
• Output supply:
LVPECL – 3.3V Core
LVCMOS –Core/Output
3.3V/3.3V
Applications
