MULTIPLIER AND ZERO DELAY BUFFER ICS570
IDT™ / ICS™
MULTIPLIER AND ZERO DELAY BUFFER 1
ICS570 REV K 073007
Description
The ICS570 is a high-pe rformance Zero Dela y Buffer ( ZDB)
which integrates IDT’s proprietary analog/digital Phase
Loc ked Loop (PL L) techniques. The A version is
recommended for 5 V designs and the B version for
3.3 V designs. The chip is part of IDT’s ClockBlocksTM
family, and was designed as a performance upgrade to
meet toda y’s higher speed and low er v oltage requirement s.
The zer o delay feat ure means that the rising edge of the
input clock aligns with the rising edges of both output
clocks, giving the appear ance of no delay through the
device. There are two outputs on the chip, one being a
low-ske w divide by two of the other output. The device
incorporates an all-chip power down/ tri-state mode that
stops the internal PLL and puts both outputs into a high
impedance state.
The ICS570 is ideal for synchronizing outputs in a large
variety of systems, from personal computers to data
communications to graphics/video. By allo wing off-chip
f ee dback paths, the device can eliminate the dela y throu gh
other devices.
The ICS570 A and B versions were de signed to improve
input to outp ut jitter fr om the original ICS570 M v ersion, and
are recommended for all new designs.
