MK3230 Datasheet, PDF (1/4 Pages) Integrated Circuit Systems – Portable System Clock Synthesizer
I CR O C LOC K
Description
The MK3230 is the smallest size, lowest power system
clock synthesizer available. It is the ideal way to
generate clocks for portable computers, PDAs, and
other devices where low power is required. Using
analog Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) techniques, the
device operates from a single 32.768 kHz crystal to
produce the 32.768kHz, CPU, system, keyboard
controller, and floppy (or super I/O) controller output
clocks.
The device has two power down modes. From the CPU
decoding table (when FS0, FS1, and FS2 all are low),
the CPU and 14.3 MHz system clocks can be turned
off. Also, the keyboard and 24 MHz peripheral clocks
can be shut off from PD24+KBD (pin 10). The part has
a separate VDD32 pin for the 32 kHz clock, allowing
it to run at a different voltage (down to 2.0V) from the
rest of the chip, allowing it to run from a back-up
battery.
