FIGURE 7. Using Dual VCXOs for VCLK Example
20179614
The control voltage output from RBB is externally filtered by
the loop filter consisting of a 22.1kΩ resistor in series with a
10nF capacitor, combined in parallel with a 100pF capacitor.
This gives a loop bandwidth of 1.5kHz. Since the control
voltage is limited to around 2.1V, it requires a level shifter to
get the entire pull range on the VCXO. National’s LMC7101
is recommended with 100kΩ and 182kΩ resistors as shown
in Figure 7 to provide a gain of 1.55, sufficient to drive a 3.3V
VCXO.
Recommended VCXOs from SaRonix (141 Jefferson Drive,
Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA) include the ST1308AAB-74.25
for high definition and the ST1307BAB-27.00 for standard
definition. Dual VCXOs require some supporting logic to
select the appropriate VCXO. This requires the use of For-
mat[4] (SD/HD) and Lock Detect, which are mapped at
power-on to I/O Port Bit 3 and I/O Port Bit 4, respectively.
These two signals pass through an AND gate (Fairchild
Semiconductor’s NC7SZ08 or similar). Its output is high
when both Lock Detect and Format[4] are high, which indi-
cates a valid high-definition signal is present. The VCXOs
are buffered to control the transition times and to allow easy
selection. The output of the AND gate is used to control the
Output Enable (OE) function of the buffers. The 74.25MHz
VCXO is buffered with the NC7SZ126 with the AND gate
output connected to the OE pin of the NC7SZ126, and the
27.00MHz VCXO is buffered with the NC7SZ125 with the
AND gate output connected to the OE pin of the NC7SZ125.
This circuit uses the 27.00MHz VCXO as default and en-
ables the 74.25MHz VCXO when a valid high-definition sig-
nal is present. The outputs from the buffers are daisy-
chained together and sent to the LMH0031’s VCLK in addition
to other devices, such as the LMH0030 serializer.
