3.3V, 8-OUTPUT ZERO DELAY BUFFER
NOVEMBER 2006 REV. 1.0.0
XRK39653 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XRK39653 is a low voltage high perfor m ance PLL
based zero delay buffer/clock generator designed for high
speed clock dist ri bution applications. It provides 9 low
skew, low jitter outputs ideal for n etworking, compu ting and
telecom applications.
The PLL bas ed des ign al lows th e 9 out puts (8 cloc k output s
and 1 feedback output) to be phase aligned to t he input ref
-
erence clock. The outputs source LVCM OS compatible lev-
els and can drive 50Ω trans mission li nes. If seri es
terminati on is used, each output can dri ve up to 2 lines pro
-
vidi ng effectively a fanout of 1:16. The XRK39653’s refer-
ence input accepts a LVPECL clock source.
For normal operation (PLL used to source the outputs), the
feedback output (QFB) is connected to the feedback input
(FB_IN). The VCO range of ope rat ion is 200 to 500MHz.
This means that the i nput/output ranges are determined by
the di vider se ttin g. If ÷ 4 is used , t he inpu t/out put ran ge i s 50
to 125 MHz (hi gh rang e), i f ÷ 8 i s used t he input /outp ut range
is 25 to 62.5MHz (l ow range).
For testing purposes tw o PLL bypass mo des are p rovided.
The first simp ly r eplaces the PLL output with the reference
clock (PLL_EN=0,
BYPASS=1). The di viders are st ill in
use. The second is a full bypass mode that has the PLL
and divi der operation removed (
BYPASS=0). In this mode
the reference clock directly sou rces the outputs dri vers.
