Low Skew CMOS PLL
Clock Driver
With Power-Down/Power-Up Feature
MC88921
The MC88921 Clock Driver utilizes phase–locked loop technology to
lock its low skew outputs’ frequency and phase onto an input reference
clock. It is designed to provide clock distribution for CISC microprocessor
or single processor RISC systems.
The PLL allows the high current, low skew outputs to lock onto a single
clock input and distribute it with essentially zero delay to multiple
locations on a board. The PLL also allows the MC88921 to multiply a low
frequency input clock and distribute it locally at a higher (2X) system
frequency.

Four ‘Q’ outputs (Q0–Q3) are provided with less than 500ps skew between their rising edges. A 2X_Q output runs at twice the
‘Q’ output frequency. The 2X_Q output is ideal for 68040 systems which require a 2X processor clock input. The 2X_Q output
meets the tight duty cycle spec of the 20, 25 and 33MHz 68040. The 66MHz 2X_Q output can also be used for driving the clock
input of the Pentium Microprocessor while providing multiple 33MHz outputs to drive the support and bus logic. The FBSEL pin
allows the user to internally feedback either the Q or the Q/2 frequency providing a 1x or 2x multiplication factor of the reference
input.
In normal phase–locked operation the PLL_EN pin is held high. Pulling the PLL_EN pin low disables the VCO and puts the
88921 in a static ‘test mode’. In this mode there is no frequency limitation on the input clock, which is necessary for a low
frequency board test environment.
A lock indicator output (LOCK) will go HIGH when the loop is in steady state phase and frequency lock. The output will go LOW
if phase–lock is lost or when the PLL_EN pin is LOW. The lock output will go HIGH no later than 10ms after the 88921 sees a sync
signal and full 5.0V VCC.
