DESCRIPTION
The CDC2536 is a high-performance, low-skew, low-jitter clock driver. It uses a phase-lock loop (PLL) to
precisely align, in both frequency and phase, the clock output signals to the clock input (CLKIN) signal. It is
specifically designed for use with synchronous DRAMs and popular microprocessors operating at speeds from
50 MHz to 100 MHz or down to 25 MHz on outputs configured as half-frequency outputs. The CDC2536
operates at 3.3-V VCC and is designed to drive a 50-W transmission line. The CDC2536 also provides on-chip
series-damping resistors, eliminating the need for external termination components.
The feedback (FBIN) input is used to synchronize the output clocks in frequency and phase to the input clock
(CLKIN). One of the six output clocks must be fed back to FBIN for the PLL to maintain synchronization between
CLKIN and the outputs. The output used as the feedback pin is synchronized to the same frequency as CLKIN.
The Y outputs can be configured to switch in phase and at the same frequency as CLKIN. The select (SEL) input
configures three Y outputs to operate at one-half or double the CLKIN frequency, depending on which pin is fed
back to FBIN (see Tables 1 and 2). All output signal duty cycles are adjusted to 50% independent of the duty
cycle at the input clock.
Output-enable (OE) is provided for output control. When OE is high, the outputs are in the high-impedance state.
When OE is low, the outputs are active. TEST is used for factory testing of the device and can be use to bypass
the PLL. TEST should be strapped to GND for normal operation.
Unlike many products containing PLLs, the CDC2536 does not require external RC networks. The loop filter for
the PLL is included on-chip, minimizing component count, board space, and cost.
