As in any high speed analog circuitry, the power supply pins
are vulnerable to random noise. The ICS8432-101 provides
separate power supplies to isolate any high switching
noise from the outputs to the internal PLL. V
CC
, V
CCA
, and V
CCO
should be individually connected to the power supply
plane through vias, and bypass capacitors should be
used for each pin. To achieve optimum jitter performance,
power supply isolation is required.
Figure 2
illustrates how
a 10Ω resistor along with a 10μF and a .01μF bypass
capacitor should be connected to each V
CCA
pin.
