LMK04800 Family
Low-Noise Clock Jitter Cleaner with Dual Loop PLLs
1.0 General Description
2.0 Features
The LMK04800 family is the industry's highest performance
clock conditioner with superior clock jitter cleaning, genera-
tion, and distribution with advanced features to meet next
generation system requirements. The dual loop PLLat-
inum™ architecture enables 111 fs rms jitter (12 kHz to 20
MHz) using a low noise VCXO module or sub-200 fs rms jitter
(12 kHz to 20 MHz) using a low cost external crystal and var-
actor diode.

The dual loop architecture consists of two high-performance
phase-locked loops (PLL), a low-noise crystal oscillator cir-
cuit, and a high-performance voltage controlled oscillator
(VCO). The first PLL (PLL1) provides a low-noise jitter cleaner
function while the second PLL (PLL2) performs the clock gen-
eration. PLL1 can be configured to either work with an exter-
nal VCXO module or the integrated crystal oscillator with an
external tunable crystal and varactor diode. When used with
a very narrow loop bandwidth, PLL1 uses the superior close-
in phase noise (offsets below 50 kHz) of the VCXO module
or the tunable crystal to clean the input clock. The output of
PLL1 is used as the clean input reference to PLL2 where it
locks the integrated VCO. The loop bandwidth of PLL2 can
be optimized to clean the far-out phase noise (offsets above
50 kHz) where the integrated VCO outperforms the VCXO
module or tunable crystal used in PLL1.
