DATA SHEET
General Description
Features
The ICS872S480 is a Zero Delay Clock Generator with hitless input
clock switching capability. The ICS872S480 is ideal for use in
redundant, fault tolerant clock trees where low jitter frequency
synthesis are critical. The device receives two differential clock
signals from which it generates two outputs with “zero” delay. The
output and feedback dividers are configured to allow for a 1:1
frequency generation ratio.

The ICS872S480 Dynamic Clock Switch (DCS) circuit continuously
monitors both input clock signals. Upon detection of an invalid clock
input (stuck LOW or HIGH for at least one complete clock period of
the VCO feedback frequency), the loss of reference monitor will be
set HIGH. If that clock is the primary clock, the DCS will switch to the
good secondary clock and phase/frequency alignment will occur
with minimal output phase disturbance. Once the primary clock is
restored to a good state, the DCS will automatically switch back to
the primary clock input.
The low jitter characteristics with input clock monitoring and DCS
capability make the ICS872S480 an ideal choice for DDR3
applications requiring fault tolerant reference clocks.
CLKx, nCLKx pairs can accept the following differential
input levels: LVPECL, LVDS, HSTL, HCSL

DIFFERENTIAL-TO-HSTL ZERO DELAY CLOCK GENERATOR
Applications Information
Clock Redundancy and Reference Selection
Output Transitioning
The ICS872S480 accepts two differential input clocks, CLK0, nCLK0
and CLK1, nCLK1, for the purpose of redundancy. Only one of these
clocks can be selected at any given time for use as the reference.
CLK0, nCLK0 is defined as the initial, or primary clock, while the
remaining clock is the redundant or secondary clock. The output
signal CLK_IND indicates which clock input is being used as the
reference (LOW = CLK0, nCLK0, HIGH = CLK1, nCLK1).
After a successful DCS initiated clock switch, the internal PLL of the
ICS872S480 will begin slewing to phase/frequency alignment of the
newly selected clock input. The PLL will achieve lock to the new input
with minimal phase disturbance at the outputs.
Recommended Power-up Sequence
1.Before startup, set AUTO_SEL low so the PLL will operate in
manual switch mode, plus set REF_SEL low to ensure that the
primary reference clock, CLK0, nCLK0, is selected. This will
ensure that during startup, the PLL will acquire lock using the
primary reference clock input.
Failure Detection and Alarm Signaling
Within the ICS872S480 device, CLK0, nCLK0 and CLK1, nCLK1 are
continuously monitored for failures. A failure on either of these clocks
is detected when one of the clock signals is stuck HIGH or LOW for
at least 1 period of the feedback. Upon detection of a failure, the
corresponding loss-of-reference signal, LOR0 or LOR1, will be set
HIGH. The input clocks are continuously monitored and the
loss-of-reference signals will continue to reflect the real-time status of
each input clock.
2.Once powered-up, and assuming a stable clock is present at the
primary clock input, the PLL will begin to phase/frequency slew as
it attempts to achieve lock with the input reference clock.
3.Drive AUTO_SEL HIGH to enable DCS mode.
Manual Clock Switching
Alternate Power-up Sequence
When input signal AUTO_SEL is driven LOW, the clock specified by
REF_SEL will always be used as the reference, even when a clock
failure is detected at the reference. In order to switch between CLK0,
nCLK0 and CLK1, nCLK1 as the reference clock, the level on
REF_SEL must be driven to the appropriate level. When the level on
REF_SEL is changed, the selection of the new clock will
take place, and CLK_IND will be updated to indicate which clock is
now supplying the reference to the PLL.
If both input clocks are valid before power up, the part may be
powered-up in DCS mode. However, it cannot be guaranteed that the
PLL will achieve lock with one specific input clock.
1.Before startup, leave AUTO_SEL floating and the internal pullup
will enable DCS mode.
2.Once powered up, the PLL will begin to phase/frequency slew as it
attempts to achieve lock with one of the input reference clocks.
Dynamic Clock Switching
The Dynamic Clock Switching (DCS) process serves as an automatic
safety mechanism to protect the stability of the PLL when a failure
occurs on the reference.
When input signal AUTO_SEL is not driven HIGH, an internal pullup
pulls it HIGH so that DCS is enabled. If DCS is enabled and a failure
occurs on the initial clock, the ICS872S480 device will check the
status of the secondary clock. If the secondary clock is detected as a
good input clock, the ICS872S480 will automatically de-select the
initial clock as the reference and multiplex in the secondary clock.
When a successful switch from the initial to secondary clock has
been accomplished, CLK_IND will be updated to indicate the new
reference. If and when the fault on the initial clock is corrected, the
corresponding loss-of-reference flag will be updated to represent this
clock as good again. Once updated, the DCS will undergo an
automatic clock switch. See the Dynamic Clock Switch State
Diagram and for additional details on the functionality of the Dynamic
Clock Switching circuit.

DIFFERENTIAL-TO-HSTL ZERO DELAY CLOCK GENERATOR
Wiring the Differential Input to Accept Single-Ended Levels
Figure 1 shows how a differential input can be wired to accept single
ended levels. The reference voltage VREF = VDD/2 is generated by
the bias resistors R1 and R2. The bypass capacitor (C1) is used to
help filter noise on the DC bias. This bias circuit should be located as
close to the input pin as possible. The ratio of R1 and R2 might need
to be adjusted to position the VREF in the center of the input voltage
swing. For example, if the input clock swing is 2.5V and VDD = 3.3V,
R1 and R2 value should be adjusted to set VREF at 1.25V. The values
below are for when both the single ended swing and VDD are at the
same voltage. This configuration requires that the sum of the output
impedance of the driver (Ro) and the series resistance (Rs) equals
the transmission line impedance. In addition, matched termination at
the input will attenuate the signal in half. This can be done in one of
two ways. First, R3 and R4 in parallel should equal the transmission
line impedance. For most 50Ω applications, R3 and R4 can be 100Ω.
The values of the resistors can be increased to reduce the loading for
slower and weaker LVCMOS driver. When using single-ended
signaling, the noise rejection benefits of differential signaling are
reduced. Even though the differential input can handle full rail
LVCMOS signaling, it is recommended that the amplitude be
reduced. The datasheet specifies a lower differential amplitude,
however this only applies to differential signals. For single-ended
applications, the swing can be larger, however VIL cannot be less
than -0.3V and VIH cannot be more than VDD + 0.3V. Though some
of the recommended components might not be used, the pads
should be placed in the layout. They can be utilized for debugging
purposes. The datasheet specifications are characterized and
guaranteed by using a differential signal.

termination requirements. For example, in Figure 3A, the input
termination applies for IDT open emitter HSTL drivers. If you are
using an HSTL driver from another vendor, use their termination
recommendation.
The CLK /nCLK accepts LVDS, LVPECL, HSTL, HCSL and other
differential signals. Both differential signals must meet the VPP and

All unused HSTL outputs can be left floating. We recommend that
there is no trace attached. Both sides of the differential output pair
should either be left floating or terminated.
CLK/nCLK Inputs
For applications not requiring the use of the differential input, both
CLK and nCLK can be left floating. Though not required, but for
additional protection, a 1kΩ resistor can be tied from CLK to ground.

VFQFN EPAD Thermal Release Path
In order to maximize both the removal of heat from the package and
the electrical performance, a land pattern must be incorporated on
the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) within the footprint of the package
corresponding to the exposed metal pad or exposed heat slug on the
package, as shown in Figure 5. The solderable area on the PCB, as
defined by the solder mask, should be at least the same size/shape
as the exposed pad/slug area on the package to maximize the
thermal/electrical performance. Sufficient clearance should be
designed on the PCB between the outer edges of the land pattern
and the inner edges of pad pattern for the leads to avoid any shorts.
and dependent upon the package power dissipation as well as
electrical conductivity requirements. Thus, thermal and electrical
analysis and/or testing are recommended to determine the minimum
number needed. Maximum thermal and electrical performance is
achieved when an array of vias is incorporated in the land pattern. It
is recommended to use as many vias connected to ground as
possible. It is also recommended that the via diameter should be 12
to 13mils (0.30 to 0.33mm) with 1oz copper via barrel plating. This is
desirable to avoid any solder wicking inside the via during the
soldering process which may result in voids in solder between the
exposed pad/slug and the thermal land. Precautions should be taken
to eliminate any solder voids between the exposed heat slug and the
land pattern. Note: These recommendations are to be used as a
guideline only. For further information, please refer to the Application
Note on the Surface Mount Assembly of Amkor’s Thermally/
Electrically Enhance Leadframe Base Package, Amkor Technology.
While the land pattern on the PCB provides a means of heat transfer
and electrical grounding from the package to the board through a
solder joint, thermal vias are necessary to effectively conduct from
the surface of the PCB to the ground plane(s). The land pattern must
be connected to ground through these vias. The vias act as “heat
pipes”. The number of vias (i.e. “heat pipes”) are application specific

Schematic Example
Figure 6 shows an example of ICS872S480 application schematic. In
this example, the device is operated at VDD = 3.3V. As with any high
speed analog circuitry, the power supply pins are vulnerable to
random noise. To achieve optimum jitter performance, power supply
isolation is required. The ICS872S480 provides separate power
supplies to isolate from coupling into the internal PLL.
Power supply filter recommendations are a general guideline to be
used for reducing external noise from coupling into the devices. The
filter performance is designed for a wide range of noise frequencies.
This low-pass filter starts to attenuate noise at approximately 10kHz.
If a specific frequency noise component is known, such as switching
power supplies frequencies, it is recommended that component
values be adjusted and if required, additional filtering be added.
Additionally, good general design practices for power plane voltage
stability suggests adding bulk capacitance in the local area of all
devices.
In order to achieve the best possible filtering, it is recommended that
the placement of the filter components be on the device side of the
PCB as close to the power pins as possible. If space is limited, the
0.1uf capacitor in each power pin filter should be placed on the device
side of the PCB and the other components can be placed on the
opposite side.
The schematic example focuses on functional connections and is not
configuration specific. Refer to the pin description and functional
tables in the datasheet to ensure that the logic control inputs are
properly set.

Power Considerations
This section provides information on power dissipation and junction temperature for the ICS872S480.
Equations and example calculations are also provided.
1.
Power Dissipation.
The total power dissipation for theICS872S480 is the sum of the core power plus the power dissipated in the load(s).
The following is the power dissipation for VDD = 3.3V + 5% = 3.465V, which gives worst case results.
•
Power (core)MAX = VDD_MAX * (IDD_MAX + IDDA_MAX)= 3.465V * (275mA + 25mA) = 1039.5mW
2. Junction Temperature.
Junction temperature, Tj, is the temperature at the junction of the bond wire and bond pad, and directly affects the reliability of the device. The
maximum recommended junction temperature is 125°C. Limiting the internal transistor junction temperature, Tj, to 125°C ensures that the bond
wire and bond pad temperature remains below 125°C.
The equation for Tj is as follows: Tj = θJA * Pd_total + TA
Tj = Junction Temperature
θJA = Junction-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance
Pd_total = Total Device Power Dissipation (example calculation is in section 1 above)
TA = Ambient Temperature
In order to calculate junction temperature, the appropriate junction-to-ambient thermal resistance θJA must be used. Assuming no air flow and
a multi-layer board, the appropriate value is 42.7°C/W per Table 7 below.
Therefore, Tj for an ambient temperature of 70°C with all outputs switching is:
70°C + 1.040W * 42.7°C/W = 114.4°C. This is below the limit of 125°C.
This calculation is only an example. Tj will obviously vary depending on the number of loaded outputs, supply voltage, air flow and the type of
board (multi-layer).
