PRELIMINARY
ICS87946-01
LOW SKEW ÷1, ÷2
LVPECL-TO-LVCMOS/LVTTL CLOCK GENERATOR
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ICS87946-01 is a low skew, ÷1, ÷2 Clock
,&6
Generator and a member of the HiPerClockS™
HiPerClockS™ family of High Performance Clock Solutions from
ICS. The ICS87946-01 has one LVPECL clock
input pair. The PCLK, nPCLK pair can accept
LVPECL, CML, or SSTL input levels. The low impedance
LVCMOS outputs are designed to drive 50Ω series or parallel
terminated transmission lines. The effective fanout can be in-
creased from 10 to 20 by utilizing the ability of the outputs to
drive two series terminated lines.
The divide select inputs, DIV_SELx, control the output fre-
quency of each bank. The outputs can be utilized in the ÷1,
÷2 or a combination of ÷1 and ÷2 modes. The master reset
input, MR/nOE, resets the internal frequency dividers and also
controls the active and high impedance states of all outputs.
The ICS87946-01 is characterized at 3.3V core/3.3V output
and 3.3V core/2.5V output. Guaranteed bank, output and part-
to-part skew characteristics make the ICS87946-01 ideal for
those clock distribution applications demanding well defined
performance and repeatability.
