Document #: 38-07089 Rev. *B Page 2 of 9 Z9973 Functional Description The CY29973 has an integrated PLL that provides low-skew and low-jitter clock outputs for high-performance microprocessors. Three independent banks of four outputs as well as an independent PLL feedback output, FB_OUT, provide exceptional flexibility for possible output configurations. The PLL is ensured stable operation given that the VCO is configured to run between 200 MHz to 480 MHz. This allows a wide range of output frequencies up to125 MHz. The phase detector compares the input reference clock to the external feedback input. For normal operation, the external feedback input, FB_IN, is connected to the feedback output, FB_OUT. The internal VCO is running at multiples of the input reference clock set by FB_SEL(0:2) and VCO_SEL select inputs (see Table 1). The VCO frequency is then divided to provide the required output frequencies. These dividers are set by SELA(0,1), SELB(0,1), SELC(0,1) select inputs (see Table 2). For situations in which the VCO needs to run at relatively low frequencies and hence might not be stable, assert VCO_SEL LOW to divide the VCO frequency by 2. This will maintain the desired output relationships, but will provide an enhanced PLL lock range. The CY29973 is also capable of providing inverted output clocks. When INV_CLK is asserted HIGH, QC2 and QC3 output clocks are inverted. These clocks could be used as feedback outputs to the CY29973 or a second PLL device to generate early or late clocks for a specific design. This inversion does not affect the output to output skew.

For these applications the CY29973 offers a low-voltage PECL clock input as a PLL reference. This allows the user to use LVPECL as the primary clock distribution device to take advantage of its far superior skew performance. The CY29973 can then lock onto the LVPECL reference and translate with near-zero delay to low-skew outputs. By using one of the outputs as a feedback to the PLL, the propagation delay through the device is eliminated. The PLL works to align the output edge with the input reference edge thus producing near-zero delay. The reference frequency affects the static phase offset of the PLL and thus the relative delay between inputs and outputs. Because the static phase offset is a function of the reference clock, the Tpd of the CY29973 is a function of the configuration used. Glitch-Free Output Frequency Transitions Customarily, when output buffers have their internal counters changed "on the fly," their output clock periods will: 1. contain short or "runt" clock periods. These are clock cycles in which the cycle(s) are shorter in period than either the old or new frequency to which it is being transitioned. Document #: 38-07089 Rev. *B 2. contain stretched clock periods. These are clock cycles in which the cycle(s) are longer in period than either the old or new frequency to which it is being transitioned. This device specifically includes logic to guarantee that runt and stretched clock pulses do not occur if the device logic levels of any or all of the following pins changed "on the fly" while it is operating: SELA, SELB, SELC, and VCO_SEL. SYNC Output In situations where output frequency relationships are not integer multiples of each other, the SYNC output provides a signal for system synchronization. The CY29973 monitors the relationship between the QA and the QC output clocks. It provides a low-going pulse, one period in duration, one period prior to the coincident rising edges of the QA and QC outputs. The duration and the placement of the pulse depend on the higher of the QA and QC output frequencies. The following timing diagram illustrates various waveforms for the SYNC output (see Figure 1). Note. The SYNC output is defined for all possible combinations of the QA and QC outputs even though under some relationships the lower frequency clock could be used as a synchronizing signal.

Sync Output Waveforms Power Management The individual output enable/freeze control of the CY29973 allows the user to implement unique power management schemes into the design. The outputs are stopped in the logic "0" state when the freeze control bits are activated. The serial input register contains one programmable freeze enable bit for 12 of the 14 output clocks. The QC0 and FB_OUT outputs cannot be frozen with the serial port, which avoids any potential lock-up situation should an error occur in loading the Document #: 38-07089 Rev. *B serial data. An output is frozen when a logic "0" is programmed and enabled when a logic "1" is written. The enabling and freezing of individual outputs is done in such a manner as to eliminate the possibility of partial "runt" clocks. The serial input register is programmed through the SDATA input by writing a logic "0" start bit followed by 12 NRZ freeze enable bits (see Figure 2). The period of each SDATA bit equals the period of the free-running SCLK signal. The SDATA is sampled on the rising edge of SCLK.
