Programmable RambusTM XDRTM Clock Generator
ICS9220B
General Description
Features
The ICS9220 clock generator provides Programmable clock • 300 - 700 MHz clock source
signals to support the Rambus XDRTMmemory subsystem
•
2 open-drain differential output drives with short
and Redwood logic interface. The ICS9220 has been
optimized for 100MHz reference input that may or may not be
modulated for spread spectrum. The ICS9220 provides 2
differential clock pairs in a space saving 28-pin TSSOP
package and provides an off-the-shelf high-performance
interface solution.
term jitter < 40ps
•
•
Spread spectrum compatible
Reference clock is differential or single-ended
100MHz
SMBus programmability for:
- frequency multiplier
- output enable
- operating mode
Support systems where XDR subsystem is
asynchronous to other system clocks
•
Figure 1 shows the major components of the ICS9220 XDR
Clock Generator. These include the a PLL, a Bypass
Multiplexer and two differential output buffers. The outputs
can be disabled by a logic low on the OE pin. An output is
enabled by the combination of the OE pin being high, and 1
in its SMBus Output control register bit.

2.5V power supply
The PLL receives a reference clock, CLK_INT/C and outputs
a clock signal at a frequency equal to the input frequency
times a multiplier. Table 2 shows the multipliers selectable
via the SMBus interface. This clock signal is then fed to the
differentialoutputbufferstodrivetheenabledclocks. Disabled
outputs are set to Hi-Z. The Bypass mode routes the input
clock, CLK_INT/C, directly to the differential output buffers,
bypassing the PLL.
Up to four ICS9220 devices can be cascaded on the same
SMBus.Table 3 shows the SMBus addressing and control for
the four devices.
