PRODUCT FEATURES
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
þ
Generates CPU Clock Signals for Microprocessor
Systems
The IMISG508 is a spectrum spread clock generator
specially designed for personal computers, laser
printers and other digital systems. IMISG508 uses a
patented concept to generate popular clock frequencies
that are intentionally boradbanded to reduce
electromagnetic interference. IMISG508 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.

Supports CPUs from all major manufacturers
Wide Range of Selectable Output Frequencies
including 40, 30, 25, and 16.7 MHz.
þ
Single, Low Cost Crystal used as Reference
Frequency
PRCLK is the broadbanded output and can be
programmed by the PRCLK Frequency Selection Table
on page 2. 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.

APPLICATIONS
MPSEL
The IMISG508 eliminates the need for multiple
oscillators and generates the CPU clock signals for
personal computers, laser printers and other digital
systems. Supports CPUs from all major manufacturers.
IMISG508 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.
