General Description
The 8V43FS92432 is a 3.3V-compatible, PLL based clock
synthesizer targeted for high performance clock generation in
mid-range to high-performance telecom, networking, and computing
applications. With output frequencies from 21.25MHz to 1360MHz
and the support of two differential PECL output signals, the device
meets the needs of the most demanding clock applications.
The 8V43FS92432 is a programmable high-frequency clock source
(clock synthesizer). The internal PLL generates a high-frequency
output signal based on a low-frequency reference signal. The
frequency of the output signal is programmable and can be changed
on the fly for frequency margining purpose.
The internal crystal oscillator uses the external quartz crystal as the
basis of its frequency reference. Alternatively, a LVCMOS compatible
clock signal can be used as a PLL reference signal. The frequency of
the internal crystal oscillator is divided by a selectable divider and
then multiplied by the PLL. Its output is scaled by a divider that is
configured by either the I2C or parallel interfaces. The crystal
oscillator frequency fXTAL, the PLL pre-divider P, the feedback-divider
M, and the PLL post-divider N determine the output frequency. The
feedback path of the PLL is internal.
The PLL post-divider N is configured through either the I2C or the
parallel interfaces, and can provide one of six division ratios (2, 4, 8,
16, 32, 64). This divider extends the performance of the part while
providing a 50% duty cycle. The high-frequency outputs, QA and QB,
are differential and are capable of driving a pair of transmission lines
terminated 50 to VCC – 2.0 V. The second high-frequency output,
QB, can be configured to run at either 1x or 1/2x of the clock
frequency or the first output (QA). The positive supply voltage for the
internal PLL is separated from the power supply for the core logic
and output drivers to minimize noise induced jitter.
The configuration logic has two sections: I2C and parallel. The
parallel interface uses the values at the M[9:0], NA[2:0], NB, and P
parallel inputs to configure the internal PLL dividers. The parallel
programming interface has priority over the serial I2C interface. The
serial interface is I2C compatible and provides read and write access
to the internal PLL configuration registers. The lock state of the PLL
is indicated by the LVCMOS-compatible LOCK output.
