Functional Description
The MPC9600 is a fully LVCMOS 2.5 V or 3.3 V compatible PLL clock driver. The MPC9600 has the capability to generate clock signals
of 50 to 200 MHz from clock sources of 16.67 to 50 MHz. The internal PLL is optimized for this frequency range and does not require
external loop filter components. QFB provides an output for the external feedback path to the feedback input FB_IN. The QFB divider ratio
is configurable and determines the PLL frequency multiplication factor when QFB is directly connected to FB_IN. The MPC9600 is
optimized for minimizing the propagation delay between the clock input and FB_IN.
Three output banks of 7 outputs each bank can be individually configured to divide the VCO frequency by 2 or by 4. Combining the
feedback and output divider ratios, the MPC9600 is capable to multiply the input frequency by 2, 3, 4, and 6.
The reference clock is selectable either LVPECL or LVCMOS. The LVPECL reference clock feature allows the designer to use LVPECL
fanout buffers for the inner branches of the clock distribution tree. All control inputs accept LVCMOS compatible levels. The outputs provide
low impedance LVCMOS outputs capable of driving parallel terminated 50  transmission to VTT = VCC/2. For series terminated lines the
MPC9600 can drive two lines per output giving the device an effective total fanout of 1:42. With guaranteed maximum output-to-output
skew of 150 ps, the MPC9600 PLL clock driver meets the synchronization requirements of the most demanding systems.
The VCCA analog power pin doubles as a PLL bypass select line for test purpose. When the VCCA is driven to GND the reference clock
will bypass the PLL.
The device is packaged in a 48-lead LQFP package to provide optimum combination of board density and performance.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Programming the MPC9600
The MPC9600 clock driver outputs can be configured into
several divider modes. Additionally the external feedback of the
device allows for flexibility in establishing various input to output
frequency relationships. The selectable feedback divider of the
three output groups allows the user to configure the device for 1:2,
1:3, 1:4 and 1:6 input:output frequency ratios. The use of even
dividers ensure that the output duty cycle is always 50%. Table 8
illustrates the various output configurations, the table describes
the outputs using the input clock frequency CLK as a reference.
The feedback divider division settings establish the output
relationship, in addition, it must be ensured that the VCO will be
stable given the frequency of the outputs desired. The feedback
frequency should be used to situate the VCO into a frequency
range in which the PLL will be stable. The design of the PLL
supports output frequencies from 50 MHz to 200 MHz while the
VCO frequency range is specified from 200 MHz to 400 MHz and
should not be exceeded for stable operation.

Power Supply Filtering
The MPC9600 is a mixed analog/digital product. Its analog
circuitry is naturally susceptible to random noise, especially if this
noise is seen on the power supply pins. Random noise on the
VCCA (PLL) power supply impacts the device characteristics, for
instance I/O jitter. The MPC9600 provides separate power
supplies for the output buffers (VCC) and the phase-locked loop
(VCCA) of the device.The purpose of this design technique is to
isolate the high switching noise digital outputs from the relatively
sensitive internal analog phase-locked loop. In a digital system
environment where it is more difficult to minimize noise on the
power supplies a second level of isolation may be required. The
simple but effective form of isolation is a power supply filter on the
VCCA pin for the MPC9600. Figure 5 illustrates a typical power
supply filter scheme. The MPC9600 frequency and phase stability
is most susceptible to noise with spectral content in the 100 kHz
to 20 MHz range. Therefore the filter should be designed to target
this range. The key parameter that needs to be met in the final
filter design is the DC voltage drop across the series filter resistor
RF. From the data sheet the ICCA current (the current sourced
through the VCCA pin) is typically 3 mA (5 mA maximum),
assuming that a minimum of 2.325 V (VCC = 3.3 V or VCC = 2.5 V)
must be maintained on the VCCA pin. The resistor RF shown in
Figure 5, must have a resistance of 9–10  (VCC = 2.5 V) to meet
the voltage drop criteria.
The minimum values for RF and the filter capacitor CF are
defined by the required filter characteristics: the RC filter should
provide an attenuation greater than 40 dB for noise whose
spectral content is above 100 kHz. In the example RC filter shown
in Figure 5, the filter cut-off frequency is around 3-5 kHz and the
noise attenuation at 100 kHz is better than 42 dB.
Using the MPC9600 in Zero-Delay Applications
Nested clock trees are typical applications for the MPC9600.
For these applications the MPC9600 offers a differential LVPECL
clock input pair as a PLL reference. This allows for the use of
differential LVPECL primary clock distribution devices such as the
Freescale Semiconductor MC100ES6111 or MC100ES6226,
taking advantage of its superior low-skew performance. Clock
trees using LVPECL for clock distribution and the MPC9600 as
LVCMOS PLL fanout buffer with zero insertion delay will show
significantly lower clock skew than clock distributions developed
from CMOS fanout buffers.
The external feedback option of the MPC9600 PLL allows for
its use as a zero delay buffer. The PLL aligns the feedback clock
output edge with the clock input reference edge and virtually
eliminates the propagation delay through the device.
The remaining insertion delay (skew error) of the MPC9600 in
zero-delay applications is measured between the reference clock
input and any output. This effective delay consists of the static
phase offset (SPO or t()), I/O jitter (tJIT(), phase or long-term
jitter), feedback path delay and the output-to-output skew (tSK(O))
relative to the feedback output.
Calculation of Part-to-Part Skew
The MPC9600 zero delay buffer supports applications where
critical clock signal timing can be maintained across several
devices. If the reference clock inputs (CCLK or PCLK) of two or
more MPC9600 are connected together, the maximum overall
timing uncertainty from the common CCLK input to any output is:
tSK(PP) = t() + tSK(O) + tPD, LINE(FB) + tJIT()  CF
This maximum timing uncertainty consist of 4 components:
static phase offset, output skew, feedback board trace delay and
I/O (phase) jitter:

As the noise frequency crosses the series resonant point of an
individual capacitor its overall impedance begins to look inductive
and thus increases with increasing frequency. The parallel
capacitor combination shown ensures that a low impedance path
to ground exists for frequencies well above the bandwidth of the
PLL. Although the MPC9600 has several design features to
minimize the susceptibility to power supply noise (isolated power
and grounds and fully differential PLL) there still may be
applications in which overall performance is being degraded due
to system power supply noise. The power supply filter schemes
discussed in this section should be adequate to eliminate power
supply noise related problems in most designs.

LOW VOLTAGE, 2.5V AND 3.3V LVCMOS PLL CLOCK DRIVER
Due to the statistical nature of I/O jitter a RMS value (1 ) is
specified. I/O jitter numbers for other confidence factors (CF) can
be derived from Table 11.
or series terminated transmission lines. For more information on
transmission lines the reader is referred to Freescale
Semiconductor application note AN1091. In most high
performance clock networks point-to-point distribution of signals
is the method of choice. In a point-to-point scheme either series
terminated or parallel terminated transmission lines can be used.
The parallel technique terminates the signal at the end of the line
with a 50  resistance to VCC 2.
This technique draws a fairly high level of DC current and thus
only a single terminated line can be driven by each output of the
MPC9600 clock driver. For the series terminated case however
there is no DC current draw, thus the outputs can drive multiple
series terminated lines. Figure 8 illustrates an output driving a
single series terminated line versus two series terminated lines in
parallel. When taken to its extreme the fanout of the MPC9600
clock driver is effectively doubled due to its capability to drive
multiple lines.

The feedback trace delay is determined by the board layout
and can be used to fine-tune the effective delay through each
device. In the following example calculation a
I/O jitter confidence factor of 99.7% ( 3) is assumed, resulting
in a worst case timing uncertainty from input to any output of –
261 ps to 341 ps relative to CCLK (VCC = 3.3 V and fVCO = 200

Above equation uses the maximum I/O jitter number shown in
the AC characteristic table for VCC = 3.3 V (17 ps RMS). I/O jitter
is frequency dependant with a maximum at the lowest VCO
frequency (200 MHz for the MPC9600). Applications using a
higher VCO frequency exhibit less I/O jitter than the AC
characteristic limit. The I/O jitter characteristics in Figure 7 can be
used to derive a smaller
I/O jitter number at the specific VCO frequency, resulting in tighter
timing limits in zero-delay mode and for part-to-part skew tSK(PP).

Driving Transmission Lines
The MPC9600 clock driver was designed to drive high speed
signals in a terminated transmission line environment. To provide
the optimum flexibility to the user the output drivers were designed
to exhibit the lowest impedance possible. With an output
impedance of less than 20  the drivers can drive either parallel

ZO = 50 
The waveform plots in Figure 9 shows the simulation results of
an output driving a single line versus two lines. In both cases the
drive capability of the MPC9600 output buffer is more than
sufficient to drive 50  transmission lines on the incident edge.
Note from the delay measurements in the simulations a delta of
only 43 ps exists between the two differently loaded outputs. This
suggests that the dual line driving need not be used exclusively to
maintain the tight output-to-output skew of the MPC9600. The
output waveform in Figure 9 shows a step in the waveform, this
step is caused by the impedance mismatch seen looking into the
driver. The parallel combination of the 36  series resistor plus the
output impedance does not match the parallel combination of the
line impedances. The voltage wave launched down the two lines
will equal:

At the load end the voltage will double due to the near unity
reflection coefficient, to 2.6 V. It will then increment towards the
quiescent 3.0 V in steps separated by one round trip delay (in this
case 4.0 ns).
Since this step is well above the threshold region it will not
cause any false clock triggering, however designers may be
uncomfortable with unwanted reflections on the line. To better
match the impedances when driving multiple lines the situation in
Figure 10 should be used. In this case the series terminating
resistors are reduced such that when the parallel combination is
added to the output buffer impedance the line impedance is
perfectly matched.
