The P2008A uses the most efficient and optimized
modulation profile approved by the FCC and is
implemented in a proprietary all digital method.
The P2008A modulates the output of a single PLL in
order to “spread” the bandwidth of a synthesized clock,
and more importantly, decreases the peak amplitudes of
its harmonics. This results in significantly lower system
EMI compared to the typical narrow band signal produced
by oscillators and most frequency generators. Lowering
EMI by increasing a signal’s bandwidth is called ‘spread
spectrum clock generation’.
Product Description
The P2008A is a versatile spread spectrum frequency
modulator designed specifically for digital camera and
other digital video and imaging applications. The P2008A
reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) at the clock
source, allowing system wide reduction of EMI of down
stream clock and data dependent signals. The P2008A
allows significant system cost savings by reducing the
Applications
The P2008A is targeted towards cable, xDSL, fax
modem, set-top box, USB controller, DSC, and other
embedded systems.
