DESCRIPTION
■ 3.3V, –1.9V power suppies
Micrel-Synergy's SY89801A PLL based clock generator
provides,inasinglechip,allthenecessaryclocksforHewlett-
Packard's PA-8000 Microprocessor.
■ Differential LVPECL clock input
■ Differential HSTL/LVPECL outputs
■ Compatible with HP PA-8000 microprocessors
Utilizing Micrel-Synergy's advanced PLL technology, the
SY89801A accepts a Positive-ECL (PECL) reference clock
input at 100MHz-132MHz, and provides precisely aligned,
ultra-low-jitterratiosoffrequenciesnecessaryfortheoperation
of the processor. In addition, the SY89801A provides the
"USYNC" synchronizing signals as required by the PA-8000.
The frequency ratios are 1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 5:3 and 2:1.
TofacilitatedirectinterfacingtothePA-8000,theSY89801A
operatesacross+3.3voltand-1.9 voltsupplies.Theprocessor
clock(PCLK), runwayclock(RCLK), andUSYNCoutputsare
HSTL-compatible. Additionally, there is a PECL-compatible
runwayclockoutput(RCLKLV). TheSY89801Arequiresonly
a simple external series-RC loop filter.
■ Low-jitter source for all PA-8000 required timing
signals
■ Available in 44-pin MQUAD package
PIN CONFIGURATION
Coupling Micrel-Synergy's advanced PLL technology with
our proprietary ASSET bipolar process has produced a
Timing Generator IC which meets the stringent requirements
of the PA-8000 µP, while setting a new standard for
performance and flexibility.
