SNAS668E August 2015 – September 2024 LMK03328
PRODUCTION DATA
Consider a typical wired communications application, like a top-of-rack switch, which must clock a high data rate for 10-Gbps or 100-Gbps Ethernet PHYs and other macros like PCI Express, DDR, and CPLD. For such asynchronous systems, the reference input can be a crystal. In such systems, the clocks are expected to be available upon power up without the need for any device-level programming. An example of clock input and output requirements is:
Refer to the Detailed Design Procedure section on how to generate the required output frequencies for the above scenario using LMK03328.
