3 Description
The LMK04208 is a high performance clock
conditioner with superior clock jitter cleaning,
generation, and distribution with advanced features to
meet next generation system requirements. The dual
loop PLLatinum™ architecture is capable of 111 fs,
RMS jitter (12 kHz to 20 MHz) using a low-noise
VCXO module or sub-200 fs rms jitter (12 kHz to 20
MHz) using a low cost external crystal and varactor
diode.
The dual loop architecture consists of two high-
performance phase-locked loops (PLL), a low-noise
crystal oscillator circuit, and a high-performance
voltage controlled oscillator (VCO). The first PLL
(PLL1) provides low-noise jitter cleaner functionality
while the second PLL (PLL2) performs the clock
generation. PLL1 can be configured to either work
with an external VCXO module or the integrated
crystal oscillator with an external tunable crystal and
varactor diode. When paired with a very narrow loop
bandwidth, PLL1 uses the superior close-in phase
noise (offsets below 50 kHz) of the VCXO module or
the tunable crystal to clean the input clock. The
output of PLL1 is used as the clean input reference to
PLL2 where it locks the integrated VCO. The loop
bandwidth of PLL2 can be optimized to clean the far-
out phase noise (offsets above 50 kHz) where the
integrated VCO outperforms the VCXO module or
tunable crystal used in PLL1.
