LVCMOS TO XTAL INTERFACE
The XTAL_IN input can accept a single-ended LVCMOS
signal through an AC couple capacitor. A general interface
diagram is shown in Figure 3. The XTAL_OUT pin can
be left floating. The input edge rate can be as slow as
10ns. For LVCMOS inputs, it is recommended that the
amplitude be reduced from full swing to half swing in order
to prevent signal interference with the power rail and to
reduce noise. This configuration requires that the output
impedance of the driver (Ro) plus the series resistance
(Rs) equals the transmission line impedance. In addition,
matched termination at the crystal input will attenuate the
signal in half. This can be done in one of two ways. First,
R1 and R2 in parallel should equal the transmission line
impedance. For most 50Ω applications, R1 and R2 can be
100Ω. This can also be accomplished by removing R1 and
making R2 50Ω.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR UNUSED INPUT AND OUTPUT PINS
INPUTS:
CRYSTAL INPUT:
For applications not requiring the use of the crystal oscillator
input, both XTAL_IN and XTAL_OUT can be left floating.
Though not required, but for additional protection, a 1kΩ
resistor can be tied from XTAL_IN to ground.
CLK INPUT:
For applications not requiring the use of a clock input, it can
be left floating. Though not required, but for additional
protection, a 1kΩ resistor can be tied from the CLK input to
ground.
OUTPUTS:
LVPECL OUTPUT
All unused LVPECL outputs can be left floating. We
recommend that there is no trace attached. Both sides of the
differential output pair should either be left floating or
terminated.
LVCMOS CONTROL PINS:
All control pins have internal pull-ups or pull-downs; additional
resistance is not required but can be added for additional
protection. A 1kΩ resistor can be used.
