SNAS573D January 2012 – September 2021 LMK01801
PRODUCTION DATA
Both CLKin ports can be driven by differential signals. It is recommended that the input mode be set to bipolar (CLKinX_BUF_TYPE = 0) when using differential reference clocks. The LMK01801 family internally biases the input pins so the differential interface should be AC coupled. The recommended circuits for driving the CLKin pins with either LVDS or LVPECL are shown in Figure 10-1 and Figure 10-2.
Finally, a reference clock source that produces a differential sine wave output can drive the CLKin pins using the circuit shown in Figure 10-3. Note: the signal level must conform to the requirements for the CLKin pins listed in the Section 7.4.
