DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®6908 is an easy-to-use precision oscillator that
provides 2-outputs, shifted by either 180° or 90°. The
oscillator frequency is programmed by a single external
resistor (RSET) and spread spectrum frequency modulation
(SSFM) can be activated for improved electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) performance.
The LTC6908 operates with a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply
and provides rail-to-rail, 50% duty cycle square wave
outputs. A single resistor from 10k to 2M is used to select
an oscillator frequency from 50kHz to 10MHz (5V supply).
The oscillator can be easily programmed using the simple
formula outlined below:
fOUT =10MHz • 10k/RSET
The LTC6908’s SSFM capability modulates the output
frequency by a pseudorandom noise (PRN) signal to
decrease the peak electromagnetic radiation level and
improve EMC performance. The amount of frequency
spreading is fixed at ±10% of the center frequency. When
SSFM is enabled, the rate of modulation is selected by the
user. The three possible modulation rates are fOUT/16,
fOUT/32 and fOUT/64.
