FEMTOCLOCKS™ C RYSTAL-TO- LVDS
CLOCK GENERATOR
PRELIMINARY
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ICS844001I is a Fibre Channel Clock
Generator and a member of the HiPerClocksTM
family of high performance devices from ICS.
The ICS844001I uses an 18pF parallel resonant
crystal over the range of 20.4MHz - 28.3MHz.
For Fibre Channel applications, a 26.5625MHz crystal is used.
The frequency select pin allows the device to generate
either 106.25MHz or 212.5MHz from a 26.5625MHz
crystal. To generate 187.5MHz for 12Gb Ethernet, a
23.4375MHz crystal is used. The ICS844001I uses ICS’ 3rd
generation low phase noise VCO technology and can
achieve <1ps typical rms phase jitter, easily meeting Fibre
Channel and Ethernet jitter requirements. The ICS844001I is
packaged in a small 8-pin TSSOP, making it ideal for use in
systems with limited board space.

Figure 2. CRYSTAL INPUt INTERFACE
CRYSTAL INPUT INTERFACE
The ICS844001I has been characterized with 18pF parallel
resonant crystals. The capacitor values, C1 and C2, shown in
Figure 2
below were determined using a 26.5625MHz, 18pF par-
allel resonant crystal and were chosen to minimize the ppm er-
ror. The optimum C1 and C2 values can be slightly adjusted for
different board layouts.

POWER SUPPLY FILTERING T ECHNIQUES
As in any high speed analog circuitry, the power supply pins
are vulnerable to random noise. The ICS844001I provides
separate power supplies to isolate any high switching
noise from the outputs to the internal PLL. VDD and VDDA should
be individually connected to the power supply
plane through vias, and bypass capacitors should be
used for each pin. To achieve optimum jitter performance,
power supply isolation is required.
Figure 1
illustrates how
a 10Ω resistor along with a 10μF and a .01μF bypass
capacitor should be connected to each VDDA pin. FIGURE 1. POWER SUPPLY FILTERING
