ESCRIPTION
The ICS9DB202 is a high perfromance 1-to-2 Dif-
ferential-to-HCSL Jitter Attenuator designed for use
HiPerClockS™
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-attenuating device may be necessary in order
to reduce high frequency random and deterministic jitter com-
ponents from the PLL synthesizer and from the system board.
The ICS9DB202 has two PLL bandwidth modes. In low band-
width mode, the PLL loop bandwidth is 500kHz. This setting of-
fers the best jitter attenuation and is still high enough to pass a
triangular input spread spectrum profile. In high bandwidth mode,
the PLL bandwidth is at 1MHz and allows the PLL to pass more
spread spectrum modulation.
ICS
For serdes which have x10 reference multipliers instead of x12.5
multipliers, each of the two PCI Express™ outputs (PCIEX0:1)
can be set for 125MHz instead of 100MHz by configuring the
appropriate frequency select pins (FS0:1).
