Note that the LMH2190 initializes to its default settings when VBAT is powered-up. As a consequence, the
LMH2190 is in it's default state until it is configured through I2C. Because of this configuration the CLK1/2/3/4
outputs may transmit the clock to a peripheral upon startup when it is not requested by the peripheral and before
the device is initialized through the I2C port. This may happen for instance when the default settings of the device
for SCLK_REQ and CLK_REQ1/2/3/4 polarities do not correspond to what is expected by the TCXO and the
peripheral. Care must be taken to prevent any unwanted behavior in the peripheral device until the I2C port
correctly configures the device. The setting of the registers is maintained as long as the VBAT voltage is present.
LOW DROPOUT REGULATOR
The linear and low dropout regulator (LDO) is used to regulate the input voltage, VBAT, to generate an accurate
1.8V supply voltage. This allows the LMH2190 to suppress VBAT voltage ripples. A voltage ripple would distort
clock edges causing phase noise on the distributed clock signal.
In default mode the LDO is powered-up when one or more Clock Request inputs are high. Therefore the Clock
Request Logic needs to be powered continuously such that it can wake-up the LMH2190 and its LDO. The
VDD_IO voltage that takes care of supplying the Clock Request Logic can therefore be driven by either the LDO
output voltage or the ENABLE signal. Normally the VDD_IO signal is connected to the LDO output, unless the LDO
is in a low power shutdown mode. In that case the ENABLE signal will drive VDD_IO (Figure 26). As soon as there
is a clock request, the built in LDO will power up and takes over the sourcing of VDD_IO from the ENABLE signal.

The LDO contains thermal overheating detection. If it does overheat, the LMH2190 (except the register logic) will
shutdown and sets a status bit in the I2C status register.
