SYSREF Generation

The SYSREF generation circuit includes a SYSREF pre-divider and post-divider, a pulser with programmable pulse quantity, and a repeater mode bypass. The SYSREF generator modes re-time the SYSREF signal to the output clock, verifying the SYSREF output is close to the falling edge of the clock output with default delay settings. Repeater mode timing is solely determined by the propagation delay of the device.

To activate the SYSREF generation circuit, the following conditions must be satisfied:

  • SYSREFREQ_MODE field must be set to SYSREF mode.
  • SYSREF_MODE field must be set to the appropriate condition: Continuous, Pulser, or Repeater.
  • In generator modes (continuous or pulser), FINTERPOLATOR % FSYSREF = 0 must be verified.
  • SYSREF_DELAY_BYP field must be configured appropriately for generator or repeater modes (a GUI autoset condition normally verifies this whenever SYSREF_MODE is set).
  • SYSREFREQ_VCM field must be set to DC-coupled mode for continuous or pulsed generator output. In repeater mode output, the SYSREF input can be AC- or DC-coupled and SYSREFREQ_VCM must be set accordingly.
  • For continuous mode, a HIGH signal must be seen on SYSREFREQ pins continuously. For pulsed generator mode, a LOW→HIGH transition must be seen on SYSREFREQ pins to trigger the pulser. For repeater mode, the output follows the input state.
