SNAS689A October 2017 – July 2019 LMK04228
PRODUCTION DATA.
Both CLKin ports can be driven by differential signals. TI recommends setting the input mode to bipolar (CLKinX_BUF_TYPE = 0) when using differential reference clocks. The LMK04228 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 9 and Figure 10.
Finally, a reference clock source that produces a differential sine wave output can drive the CLKin pins using the following circuit. Note: the signal level must conform to the requirements for the CLKin pins listed in Electrical Characteristics.
