ICS8524
LOW SKEW, 1-TO-22
DIFFERENTIAL-TO-HSTL FANOUT BUFFER
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ICS
The ICS8524 is a low skew, 1-to-22 Differential-
to-HSTL Fanout Buffer and a member of the
HiPerClockS™ HiPerClockS™Family of High Performance Clock
Solutions from ICS. The ICS8524 has two select-
able clock inputs. The CLK, nCLK pair can accept
most standard differential input levels. The PCLK, nPCLK pair
can accept LVPECL, CML, or SSTL input levels. The device is
internally synchronized to eliminate runt pulses on the outputs
during asynchronous assertion/deassertion of the OE pin. The
ICS8524’s low output and part-to-part skew characteristics
make it ideal for workstation, server, and other high performance
clock distribution applications.
FEATURES
• 22 differential HSTL outputs
each with the ability to drive 50Ω to ground
• Selectable differential CLK, nCLK or LVPECL clock inputs
• CLK, nCLK pair can accept the following differential
input levels: LVPECL, LVDS, HSTL, SSTL, HCSL
• PCLK, nPCLK supports the following input types:
LVPECL, CML, SSTL
• Maximum output frequency: 500MHz
• Translates any single-ended input signal (LVCMOS, LVTTL,
GTL) to HSTL levels with resistor bias on nCLK input
• Output skew: 80ps (maximum)
• Part-to-part skew: 700ps (maximum)
• Jitter, RMS: 0.04ps (typical)
• LVPECL and HSTL mode operating voltage supply range: VDD
= 3.3V ± 5%, VDDO = 1.6V to 2V, GND = 0V
• 0°C to 85°C ambient operating temperature
• Pin compatible with the SY89824L and NB100EP223
