SM3 Datasheet, PDF (25/36 Pages) Connor-Winfield Corporation – ULTRA MINIATURE STRATUM 3 MODULE
Application Notes
Available Output1 frequencies are: 12.96 MHz, 19.44 MHz, 25.92 MHz, 38.88 MHz, 51.84 MHz or 77.76MHz. After the module is
powered up, pull the reset pin low for 10ms. Wait 1200ms and read the contents of register 0x33. If it reads 1 then the module came up
properly. If it reads 0 then reset the module and re-read register0c33 after 1200ms. The contents of 0x33 must read 1 before using the
module.
Reference Inputs – The application may supply up to 4 reference inputs, applied at input pins Ref1 - 4. They may each be 8 kHz,
1.544 MHz, 2.048 MHz, 12.96 MHz, 19.44 MHz, 25.92 MHz, 38.88 MHz, 51.84 MHz or 77.76 MHz. The device auto-detects the
reference frequencies, and they may be read from the Ref(1-4)_Frq_Priority registers in register control mode, as described in the control
mode sections that follow.
Reference switches are performed in a hitless manner. However, if the application externally changes the frequency of a particular
reference, the device requires 20ms to auto-detect the new frequency. Manual switches to a frequency changed reference should not be
made during this interval. Automatic reference selection mode accounts for the auto-detection in the reference qualification.
References would typically (but need not be) connected in decreasing order of usage priority. For example if redundant BITS clocks
are available, they would typically be assigned to Ref1 and Ref2, with other transmission derived signals following thereafter.
Master/Slave operation – For some applications, reliability requirements may demand that the clock system be duplicated. The
SM3 device will support the master/slave duplicated configuration for such applications. To facilitate it’s use, the device includes the
necessary signal cross coupling and control functions. Redundancy for reliability implies two major considerations: 1) Maintaining
separate failure groups such that a failure in one group does not affect it’s mate, and 2) Physical and logical partitioning for repair, such
that a failed component can be replaced while the mate remains in service, if so desired. System design needs to account to meet
system level goals.
