PRODUCTION DATA
The CDCE913 and CDCEL913 devices are modular PLL-based, low-cost, high-performance, programmable clock synthesizers, multipliers, and dividers. The devices generate up to three output clocks from a single input frequency. Each output can be programmed in-system for any clock frequency up to 230 MHz, using the integrated configurable PLL.
The CDCx913 has separate output supply pins, VDDOUT, which is 1.8 V for CDCEL913 and 2.5 V to 3.3 V for CDCE913.
The input accepts an external crystal or LVCMOS clock signal. If an external crystal is used, an on-chip load capacitor is adequate for most applications. The value of the load capacitor is programmable from 0 to 20 pF. Additionally, a selectable on-chip VCXO allows synchronization of the output frequency to an external control signal, that is, the PWM signal.
The deep M/N divider ratio allows the generation of zero-ppm audio/video, networking (WLAN, Bluetooth, Ethernet, GPS) or interface (USB, IEEE1394, memory stick) clocks from, for example, a 27-MHz reference input frequency.
The PLL supports spread-spectrum clocking (SSC). SSC can be center-spread or down-spread clocking, which is a common technique to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Based on the PLL frequency and the divider settings, the internal loop filter components are automatically adjusted to achieve high stability and optimized jitter transfer characteristics.
The device supports nonvolatile EEPROM programming for easy customization of the device to the application. The device is preset to a factory default configuration (see Default Device Configuration) that can be reprogrammed to a different application configuration before PCB assembly, or reprogrammed by in-system programming. All device settings are programmable through the SDA/SCL bus, a 2-wire serial interface.
Three programmable control inputs, S0, S1, and S2, can be used to select different frequencies, change SSC setting for lowering EMI, or control other features like outputs disable to low, outputs 3-state, power down, PLL bypass, and so forth).
The CDCx913 operates in a 1.8-V environment. The device operates in a temperature range of –40° C to 85° C.
