PCI EXPRESS™
JITTER ATTENUATOR
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ICS874002 is a high performance Differential-
ICS
to-LVDS Jitter Attenuator designed for use in PCI
HiPerClockS™ Express™ systems. In some PCI Express™
systems, such as those found in desktop PCs,
the PCI Express™ clocks are generated from a
low bandwidth, high phase noise PLL frequency synthesizer.
In these systems, a jitter attenuator may be required to
attenuate high frequency random and deterministic jitter
components from the PLL synthesizer and from the system
board. The ICS874002 has 3 PLL bandwidth modes:
200KHz, 400KHz, and 800KHz. The 200KHz mode will pro-
vide maximum jitter attenuation, but with higher PLL tracking
skew and spread spectrum modulation from the motherboard
synthesizer may be attenuated. 400KHz provides an
intermediate bandwidth that can easily track triangular
spread profiles, while providing good jitter attenuation.
800KHz bandwidth provides the best tracking skew and will
pass most spread profiles, but the jitter attenuation will not be
as good as the lower bandwidth modes. Because some 2.5
Gb serdes have x20 multipliers while others have than x25
multipliers, the 874002 can be set for 1:1 mode or 5/4
multiplication mode (i.e. 100MHz input/125MHz output) using
the F_SEL pin.
The ICS874002 uses ICS 3rd Generation FemtoClockTM
PLL technology to achieve the lowest possible phase noise.
The device is packaged in a 20 Lead TSSOP package, making
it ideal for use in space constrained applications such as PCI
Express™ add-in cards.
