ICS525-03
PECL Input OSCaR™ User Configurable Clock
Description
The ICS525-03 are the most flexible way to generate a
high-quality, high-accuracy, high-frequency clock
output from a PECL input. The name OSCaR stands
for OSCillator Replacement, as they are designed to
replace crystal oscillators in almost any electronic
system. The user can configure the device to produce
nearly any output frequency from any input frequency
by grounding or floating the select pins. Neither
microcontroller, software, nor device programmer are
needed to set the frequency. Using Phase-Locked
Loop (PLL) techniques, the device accepts a PECL
clock to produce output clocks up to 250 MHz, keeping
them frequency locked together. Resistors are for
PECL outputs only.
For simple multipliers to produce common frequencies,
refer to the LOCO
TM
family of parts, which are smaller
and more cost effective.
This product is intended for clock generation. It has low
output jitter (variation in the output period), but input to
output skew and jitter are not defined nor guaranteed.
