ICS9169C-273
Frequency Generator for Pentium™ Based Systems
General Description
Features
The ICS9169C-273 is a low-cost frequency generator
designed specifically for Pentium based chip set systems.
The integrated buffer minimizes skew and provides all the
clocks required. A 14.318 MHz XTAL crystal provides the
reference clock to generate standard Pentium frequencies.
The CPU clock makes gradual frequency transitions without
violating the PLL timing of internal microprocessor clock
multipliers.
Twelve CPU clock outputs provide sufficient clocks for the
CPU, chip set, memory and up to two DIMM connectors (with
four clocks to each DIMM). Either synchronous (CPU/2) or
asynchronous (32 MHz) PCI bus operation can be selected
by latching data on the BSEL input.
Block Diagram
• Twelve selectable CPU clocks operate up to 83.3MHz
• Maximum CPU jitter of ± 200ps
• Six BUS clocks support sync or async bus operation
• 250ps skew window for CPU outputs, 500ps skew
window for BUS outputs
• CPU clocks BUS clocks skew 0-2ns (CPU early)
• Integrated buffer outputs drive up to 30pF loads
• 3.0V - 3.7V supply range, CPU(1:6) outputs 2.5V(2.375-
2.62V) VDD option
• 32-pin SOJ package
• Logic inputs latched at Power-On for frequency selection
saving pins as Input/Output
• 48 MHz clock for USB support and 24 MHz clock for FD
