1:10 LVCMOS Zero Delay
MPC9608
Clock Buffer
The MPC9608 is a 3.3 V compatible, 1:10 PLL based zero-delay buffer. With a
very wide frequency range and low output skews the MPC9608 is targeted for
high performance and mid-range clock tree designs.

Functional Description
The MPC9608 uses an internal PLL and an external feedback path to lock its

low-skew clock output phase to the reference clock phase, providing virtually zero
propagation delay. This enables nested clock designs with near-zero insertion
delay. Designs using the MPC9608 as PLL fanout buffer will show significantly lower clock skew than clock distributions developed
from traditional fanout buffers. The device offers one reference clock input and two banks of 5 outputs for clock fanout. The input
frequency and phase is reproduced by the PLL and provided at the outputs. A selectable frequency divider sets the bank B outputs
to generate either an identical copy of the bank A clocks or one half of the bank A clock frequency. Both output banks remain syn-
chronized to the input reference for both bank B configurations.
Outputs are only disabled or enabled when the outputs are already in logic low state (CLK_STOP). For system test and diagnosis,
the MPC9608 outputs can also be set to high-impedance state by connecting OE to logic high level. Additionally, the device provides
a PLL bypass mode for low frequency test purpose. In PLL bypass mode, the minimum frequency and static phase offset specification
do not apply.
CLK_STOP and OE do not affect the PLL feedback output (QFB) and down stream clocks can be disabled without the internal PLL
losing lock.
The MPC9608 is fully 3.3 V compatible and requires no external components for the internal PLL. All inputs accept LVCMOS sig-
nals while the outputs provide LVCMOS compatible levels with the capability to drive terminated 50 Ω transmission lines on the inci-
dent edge. For series terminated transmission lines, each of the MPC9608 outputs can drive one or two traces giving the devices an
effective fanout of 1:20. The device is packaged in a 7x7 mm2 32-lead LQFP package.
