5 CLOCKING
SLLSEE9 – NOVEMBER 2013
5.1 Configuring PLL and Line Rates
The TLK10081 includes internal low-jitter high quality oscillators that are used as frequency multipliers for
the low speed and high speed SERDES and other internal circuits of the device. Specific MDIO registers
are available for SERDES rate and PLL multiplier selection to match line rates and reference clock
(REFCLK0/1) frequencies for various applications. Some examples are detailed below on how to select
and configure.
The external differential reference clock has a large operating frequency range allowing support for many
different applications. The reference clock frequency must be within ± 200 PPM of the incoming serial data
rate (± 100 PPM of nominal data rate).

For other line rates in 8:1 mode, valid reference clock frequencies can be selected with the help of the
information provided in Table 5-2 and Table 5-3 for the low speed side and high speed side SERDES. The
reference clock frequency has to be the same for the two SERDES and must be within the specified valid
ranges for different PLL multipliers.
