Features
Description
The AK8126 is a spread spectrum clock generator
designed for Home AV applications where EMI
elimination is seriously required. The device uses
the AKEMD’s original spread spectrum profile** to
provide excellent EMI reduction effect without
degradation of system performance. The AK8126
accepts a wide clock frequency range from a
crystal or reference clock input, and provides a
variable spread spectrum modulation selectable by
pin-setting, allowing the device to use in most AV
products easily. The device is available in a very
small 10-pin TMSOP package, and its pin
configuration offers simple PCB layout.

(5) Modulation frequency is determined by input frequency range. Following equations provide the
theoretical modulation frequency of AK8126.
Output Frequency Range 16-32MHz:
32-64MHz:
64-128MHz:
64-128MHz, x4 Output mode:
fmod(KHz) = 38.46KHz x fin(MHz) / 16MHz
fmod(KHz) = 38.46KHz x fin(MHz) / 32MHz
fmod(KHz) = 38.46KHz x fin(MHz) / 64MHz
fmod(KHz) = 38.46KHz x fin(MHz) / 16MHz
Where, fin is an input frequency of crystal or reference clock input.
The average output frequency in the mode of down spread modulation is intentionally offset
against the ideal average frequency. The offset is specified by percentage to the target output
frequency as shown in All integrated circuits form Asahi Kasei Microdevices Corporation (AKM)

Operation Clock Frequency Range Selection
The AK8126 operates at a wide frequency rage to support clocking in most of Home AV products. The
operation frequency range applying to the AK8126 is required to select by pin-setting of FR0 (Pin8) and
FR1 (Pin9), as shown in Table 1.

Spread Spectrum Modulation Selection
The AK8126 operates in two modes of spread spectrum modulation. One is “Center Spread Modulation” in
which the frequency deviation from the target output frequency is equal to the lower side and the upper
side. The other one is “Down Spread Modulation”, which will be used in applications where the target
clock is providing at a maximum frequency rate of that system. In this mode, the maximum spread
frequency is equal to the target frequency, and the frequency deviation is provided in the lower side. The
AK8126 can provide a variable modulation ratio with the AKM’s original spread profile for both modulation
modes, offering appropriate tune for EMI elimination without degradation of system performance.
The modulation mode and the modulation ration are selectable by pin setting of C/D/OFF (Pin 10) and
S[1:0] (Pin 4 and 5), as defined in Table 2 and Table 3, respectively.
