PRELIMINARY INFORMATION
ICS291
Triple PLL Field Prog. Spread Spectrum Clock Synthesizer
Description
The ICS291 field programmable spread spectrum clock
synthesizer generates up to six high-quality,
high-frequency clock outputs including multiple
reference clocks from a low-frequency crystal input. It
is designed to replace crystals, crystal oscillators and
stand alone spread spectrum devices in most
electronic systems.
Using ICS’ VersaClockTM software to configure PLLs
and outputs, the ICS291 contains a One-Time
Programmable (OTP) ROM for field programmability.
Programming features include input/output
frequencies, spread spectrum amount, eight selectable
configuration registers and up to two sets of three
low-skew outputs.
Each of the two output groups are powered by a
separate VDDO voltage. VDDO may vary from 1.8 V to
VDD.
Using Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) techniques, the
device runs from a standard fundamental mode,
inexpensive crystal, or clock. It can replace multiple
crystals and oscillators, saving board space and cost.
The ICS291 is also available in factory programmed
custom versions for high-volume applications.
