PRODUCT FEATURES
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
þ
Generates CPU Clock Signals for Microprocessor
Systems
The IMISG501 is a spectrum spread clock generator
specially designed for personal computers, laser
printers and other digital systems. IMISG501 uses a
patent pending concept to generate popular clock
frequencies that are intentionally broadbanded to
reduce electromagnetic interference. IMISG501
attenuates the radiated emission amplitudes from
products associated with either the clock harmonics or
any signals derived from the clock signals nominally 10
db and could significantly reduce the cost of complying
with the regulatory requirements.

Wide range of selectable output frequencies
including 50, 25, 20 and 10 Mhz
PRCLK is the broadbanded output and can be
programmed to generate 50, 25, 20 and 10 Mhz with
S0 and S1 pins. A single, low cost external crystal is
required as reference frequency for the synthesizer.
Output modulation function can be turned off with the
SSON pin. Several power down modes add the
flexibility to operate the device in a completely static
mode to reduce standby currents and simplify system
board tests.

IMISG501 eliminates the need for multiple oscillators
and generates the CPU clock signals for personal
computers, laser printers and other digital systems.
Supports 8086-, 80286-, 80386-, 80486-, PentiumÔ -
and 29000-based designs. IMISG501 can be used with
laptop or notebook computers to save power by
running the system slower than normal CPU speeds or
completely disabling the clocks in standby mode.
