AMD-K7 System Clock Chip
General Description
Features
The ICS9248-64 is a main clock synthesizer chip for AMD-
K7 based systems. This provides all clocks required for such
a system when used with a Zero Delay Buffer Chip such as
the ICS9179-06.
•
Generates the following system clocks:
- 3 differential pair open drain CPU clocks
(1.5V external
pull-up; up to 133MHz).
- 8 PCI including 1 free running (3.3V) @33.3MHz.
- 2AGP(3.3V) up to 66.6MHz.
- 2 REF(3.3V)@14.318MHz
- 1 48MHz(3.3V)
Spread Spectrum may be enabled by driving the SPREAD#
pin active. Spread spectrum typically reduces system EMI by
8dB to 10dB. This simplifies EMI qualification without
resorting to board design iterations or costly shielding. The
ICS9248-64 employs a proprietary closed loop design, which
tightly controls the percentage of spreading over process and
temperature variations.
- 24 / 48MHz(3.3V)
•
Skew characteristics:
- CPU -CPU<250ps
- CPUt - CPUc <200ps (differential pair)
- PCI – PCI: <500ps
- CPU – SDRAM_OUT: < 250ps
- CPU –AGP <500ps

Efficient Power Management through PD#, PCI_STOP#
and CPU_STOP#.
Spread Spectrum option for EMI reduction
(-1.0% down spread).
