ICS9159-07
Frequency Generator for NexGen^™ Nx586 Systems
General Description
The ICS9159-07 is a low-cost frequency generator designed
specifically for NexGen Nx586 systems. The integrated
buffer minimizes skew and provides the CPU clocks required
by the NexGen Nx586 microprocessor. A 14.318 MHz
XTAL oscil-lator provides the reference clock to generate
standard Nx586 frequencies. The CPU clock makes gradual
frequency transi-tions without violating the PLL timing of
internal microproc-essor clock multipliers.
Either synchronous (2XCPU/3) or asynchronous (32 MHz)
PCI bus operation can be selected. Green PC systems are
supported through doze mode.
Features
• Three CPU clocks operate up to 65 MHz at 3.3V, plus
smooth transitions
• Selection of nine frequencies, tristate
• Seven BUS clocks support sync or async bus
operation
• Integrated buffer outputs drive up to 10pF loads
• 3.13 to 5.25V (3.3±5%, 5.0±5%) supply range
• 28-pin SOIC package
• Clock duty cycles 45/55
Applications
• Ideal for NexGen Nx586 PCI-based motherboard designs
