ESCRIPTION
The ICS874005 is a high performance Diff-
erential-to-LVDS Jitter Attenuator designed for
HiPerClockS™
use in PCI Express systems. In some PCI
Express systems, such as those found in
desktop PCs, the PCI Express clocks are
generated from a low bandwidth, high phase noise PLL
frequency synthesizer. In these systems, a jitter attenuator
may be required to attenuate high frequency random and
deterministic jitter components from the PLL synthesizer
and from the system board. The ICS874005 has 3 PLL
bandwidth modes: 200kHz, 400kHz, and 800kHz. The
200kHz mode will provide maximum jitter attenuation, but
with higher PLL tracking skew and spread spectrum
modulation from the motherboard synthesizer may be
attenuated. The 400kHz provides an intermediate bandwidth
that can easily track triangular spread profiles, while
providing good jitter attenuation. The 800kHz bandwidth
provides the best tracking skew and will pass most spread
profiles, but the jitter attenuation will not be as good as the
lower bandwidth modes. Because some 2.5Gb serdes have
x20 multipliers while others have than x25 multipliers, the
874005 can be set for 1:1 mode or 5/4 multiplication mode
(i.e. 100MHz input/125MHz output) using the F_SEL pins.

PLL technology to achive the lowest possible phase noise.
The device is packaged in a 24 Lead TSSOP package,
making it ideal for use in space constrained applications
such as PCI Express add-in cards.
