Low Skew, 1-to-4,
Differential-to-LVDS Fanout Buffer
ICS8543
General Description
The ICS8543 is a low skew, high performance 1-to-4
Differential-to-LVDS Clock Fanout Buffer. Utilizing Low Voltage
Differential Signaling (LVDS) the ICS8543 provides a low power, low
noise, solution for distributing clock signals over controlled
impedances of 100. The ICS8543 has two selectable clock inputs.
The CLK, nCLK pair can accept most standard differential input
levels. The PCLK, nPCLK pair can accept LVPECL, CML, or SSTL
input levels. The clock enable is internally synchronized to eliminate
runt pulses on the outputs during asynchronous
assertion/deassertion of the clock enable pin.
Guaranteed output and part-to-part skew characteristics make the
ICS8543 ideal for those applications demanding well defined
performance and repeatability.

Additive Phase Jitter
The spectral purity in a band at a specific offset from the fundamental
compared to the power of the fundamental is called the dBc Phase
Noise. This value is normally expressed using a Phase noise plot
and is most often the specified plot in many applications. Phase noise
is defined as the ratio of the noise power present in a 1Hz band at a
specified offset from the fundamental frequency to the power value of
the fundamental. This ratio is expressed in decibels (dBm) or a ratio
of the power in the 1Hz band to the power in the fundamental. When
the required offset is specified, the phase noise is called a dBc value,
which simply means dBm at a specified offset from the fundamental.
By investigating jitter in the frequency domain, we get a better
understanding of its effects on the desired application over the entire
time record of the signal. It is mathematically possible to calculate an
expected bit error rate given a phase noise plot.
As with most timing specifications, phase noise measurements has
issues relating to the limitations of the equipment. Often the noise
floor of the equipment is higher than the noise floor of the device. This
is illustrated above. The device meets the noise floor of what is
shown, but can actually be lower. The phase noise is dependent on
the input source and measurement equipment.

Applications Information
Wiring the Differential Input to Accept Single-Ended Levels
Figure 2 shows how a differential input can be wired to accept single
ended levels. The reference voltage VREF = VCC/2 is generated by
the bias resistors R1 and R2. The bypass capacitor (C1) is used to
help filter noise on the DC bias. This bias circuit should be located as
close to the input pin as possible. The ratio of R1 and R2 might need
to be adjusted to position the VREF in the center of the input voltage
swing. For example, if the input clock swing is 2.5V and VDD = 3.3V,
R1 and R2 value should be adjusted to set VREF at 1.25V. The values
below are for when both the single ended swing and VDD are at the
same voltage. This configuration requires that the sum of the output
impedance of the driver (Ro) and the series resistance (Rs) equals
the transmission line impedance. In addition, matched termination at
the input will attenuate the signal in half. This can be done in one of
two ways. First, R3 and R4 in parallel should equal the transmission
line impedance. For most 50 applications, R3 and R4 can be 100.
The values of the resistors can be increased to reduce the loading for
slower and weaker LVCMOS driver. When using single-ended
signaling, the noise rejection benefits of differential signaling are
reduced. Even though the differential input can handle full rail
LVCMOS signaling, it is recommended that the amplitude be
reduced. The datasheet specifies a lower differential amplitude,
however this only applies to differential signals. For single-ended
applications, the swing can be larger, however VIL cannot be less
than -0.3V and VIH cannot be more than VDD + 0.3V. Though some
of the recommended components might not be used, the pads
should be placed in the layout. They can be utilized for debugging
purposes. The datasheet specifications are characterized and
guaranteed by using a differential signal.

3.3V Differential Clock Input Interface
The CLK /nCLK accepts LVDS, LVPECL, LVHSTL, SSTL, HCSL and
other differential signals. Both VSWING and VOH must meet the VPP
and VCMR input requirements. Figures 3A to 3F show interface
examples for the CLK/nCLK input driven by the most common driver
types. The input interfaces suggested here are examples only.
Please consult with the vendor of the driver component to confirm the
driver termination requirements. For example, in Figure 3A, the input
termination applies for IDT open emitter LVHSTL drivers. If you are
using an LVHSTL driver from another vendor, use their termination
recommendation.

Recommendations for Unused Input and Output Pins
Inputs:
CLK/nCLK INPUTS
For applications not requiring the use of the differential input, both
CLK and nCLK can be left floating. Though not required, but for
additional protection, a 1k resistor can be tied from CLK to ground.
PCLK/nPCLK INPUTS
For applications not requiring the use of the differential input, both
PCLK and nPCLK can be left floating. Though not required, but for
additional protection, a 1k resistor can be tied from PCLK to
ground.
LVCMOS Control Pins
All control pins have internal pull-ups or pull-downs; additional
resistance is not required but can be added for additional protection.
A 1k resistor can be used.
Outputs:
LVDS Outputs
All unused LVDS outputs should be terminated with 100 resistor
between the differential pair.
LVDS Driver Termination
A general LVDS interface is shown in Figure 5. Standard termination
for LVDS type output structure requires both a 100 parallel resistor
at the receiver and a 100 differential transmission line environment.
In order to avoid any transmission line reflection issues, the 100
resistor must be placed as close to the receiver as possible. IDT
offers a full line of LVDS compliant devices with two types of output
structures: current source and voltage source. The standard
termination schematic as shown in Figure 5 can be used with either
type of output structure. If using a non-standard termination, it is
recommended to contact IDT and confirm if the output is a current
source or a voltage source type structure. In addition, since these
outputs are LVDS compatible, the amplitude and common mode
input range of the input receivers should be verified for compatibility
with the output.

Power Considerations
This section provides information on power dissipation and junction temperature for the ICS8543.
Equations and example calculations are also provided.
1. Power Dissipation.
The total power dissipation for the ICS8543 is the sum of the core power plus the power dissipated in the load(s).
The following is the power dissipation for VDD = 3.3V + 5% = 3.465V, which gives worst case results.
Power (core)MAX = VDD_MAX * IDD_MAX = 3.465V * 50mA = 173.25mW
2. Junction Temperature.
Junction temperature, Tj, is the temperature at the junction of the bond wire and bond pad directly affects the reliability of the device. The
maximum recommended junction temperature is 125°C. Limiting the internal transistor junction temperature, Tj, to 125°C ensures that the bond
wire and bond pad temperature remains below 125°C.
The equation for Tj is as follows: Tj = θJA * Pd_total + TA
Tj = Junction Temperature
θJA = Junction-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance
Pd_total = Total Device Power Dissipation (example calculation is in section 1 above)
TA = Ambient Temperature
In order to calculate junction temperature, the appropriate junction-to-ambient thermal resistance θJA must be used. Assuming no air flow and
a multi-layer board, the appropriate value is 73.2°C/W per Table 6 below.
Therefore, Tj for an ambient temperature of 70°C with all outputs switching is:
70°C + 0.173W * 73.2°C/W = 82.7°C. This is below the limit of 125°C.
This calculation is only an example. Tj will obviously vary depending on the number of loaded outputs, supply voltage, air flow and the type of
board (multi-layer).
