Pentium/Pro/II
TM
System Clock Chip
General Description
The
ICS9248-55
is a Clock Synthesizer chip for Pentium and
PentiumPro CPU based Desktop/Notebook systems that will
provide all necessary clock timing.
Features include four CPU and eight PCI clocks. Three
reference outputs are available equal to the crystal frequency.
Additionally, the device meets the Pentium power-up
stabilization requirement, assuring that CPU and PCI clocks
are stable within 2ms after power-up.
PD# pin enables low power mode by stopping crystal OSC
and PLL stages. Other power management features include
CPU_STOP#, which stops CPU (0:3) clocks, and PCI_STOP#,
which stops PCICLK (0:6) clocks.
High drive CPUCLK outputs typically provide greater than 1
V/ns slew rate into 20pF loads. PCICLK outputs typically
provide better than 1V/ns slew rate into 30pF loads while
maintaining 50±5% duty cycle. The REF clock outputs typically
provide better than 0.5V/ns slew rates.
The
ICS9248-55
accepts a 14.318MHz reference crystal or
clock as its input and runs on a 3.3V core supply.
Features
Generates system clocks for CPU, IOAPIC, PCI, plus
14.314 MHz REF (0:2), USB, and Super I/O
Supports single or dual processor systems
Supports Spread Spectrum modulation for CPU & PCI
clocks, down spread -0.5%
Skew from CPU (earlier) to PCI clock (rising edges for
100/33.3MHz) 1.5 to 4ns
Two fixed outputs at 48MHz.
Separate 2.5V and 3.3V supply pins
2.5V or 3.3V output: CPU, IOAPIC
3.3V outputs: PCI, REF, 48MHz
