ICS1572
User Programmable Differential Output Graphics Clock Generator
Description
The ICS1572 is a high performance monolithic phase-locked
loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer. Utilizing ICS’s advanced
CMOS mixed-mode technology, the ICS1572 provides a low
cost solution for high-end video clock generation in worksta-
tions and high-end PC applications.
The ICS1572 has differential video clock outputs (CLK+ and
CLK-) that are compatible with industry standard video DACs.
Another clock output, LOAD, is provided whose frequency is
derived from the main clock by a programmable divider. An
additional clock output is available, LD/N2, which is derived
from the LOAD frequency and whose modulus may also be
programmed.
Operating frequencies are fully programmable with direct con-
trol provided for reference divider, pre-scaler, feedback divider
and post-scaler.
Reset of the pipeline delay on Brooktree RAMDACs may
be performed under register control. Outputs may also be set
to desired states to facilitate circuit board testing.
Features
• Supports high-resolution graphics - CLK output to
180 MHz
• Eliminates need for multiple ECL output crystal oscillators
• Fully programmable synthesizer capability - not just a
clock multiplier
• Available in 20-pin 300-mil wide body SOIC package
• Available in both parallel (101) and serial (301)
programming versions
• Circuit included for reset of Brooktree RAMDAC pipeline
delay
Applications
• Workstations
• AutoCad Accelerators
• High-end PC graphics systems
