ADVANCED COMMUNICATIONS
Description
FINAL
Features
The ACS8509 is a highly integrated, single-chip solution
for the Synchronous Equipment Timing Source (SETS)
function in a SONET or SDH Network Element. The device
generates SONET or SDH Equipment Clocks (SEC) and
Frame Synchronization clocks. The ACS8509 is fully
compliant with the required international specifications
and standards.
The device supports Free-run, Locked and Holdover
modes. It also supports all three types of reference clock
source: recovered line clock, PDH network, and node
synchronization. The ACS8509 generates independent
SEC and BITS/SSU clocks, an 8 kHz Frame
Synchronization clock and a 2 kHz Multi-Frame
Synchronization clock.
Two ACS8509 devices can be used together in a Master/
Slave configuration mode allowing system protection
against a single ACS8509 failure.
A microprocessor port is incorporated, providing access to
the configuration and status registers for device setup
and monitoring.
The ACS8509 includes a choice of edge alignment for
8 kHz input, as well as a low jitter n x E1/DS1 output
mode. The User can choose between OCXO or TCXO to
define the Stratum and/or Holdover performance
required.

ACS8509 SETS
ADVANCED COMMUNICATIONS
Functional Description
FINAL
The ACS8509 is a highly integrated, single-chip solution
for the SETS function in a SONET/SDH Network Element,
for the generation of SEC and frame synchronization
pulses.
In Free-run mode, the ACS8509 generates a stable, low
noise clock signal from an internal oscillator.
In Locked mode, the ACS8509 selects the most
appropriate input reference source and generates a
stable, low-noise clock signal locked to the selected
reference.
Parameter
In all modes, the frequency accuracy, jitter and drift
performance of the clock meet the requirements of ITU
G.812[10], G.813[11], G.823[13], and Telcordia GR-1244CORE[19].
The ACS8509 supports all three types of reference clock
source: recovered line clock (TIN1), PDH network
synchronization timing (TIN2) and node synchronization
(TIN3). The ACS8509 generates independent TOUT0 and
TOUT4 clocks, an 8 kHz Frame Synchronization clock and
a 2 kHz Multi-Frame Synchronization clock.
The ACS8509 has a high tolerance to input jitter and
wander. The jitter/wander transfer is programmable (0.1
Hz up to 20 Hz cut-off points).
The ACS8509 supports protection. Two ACS8509 devices
can be configured to provide protection against a single
ACS8509 failure.
The protection maintains alignment of the two ACS8509
devices (Master and Slave) and ensures that both
ACS8509 devices maintain the same priority table,
choose the same reference input and generate the TOUT0
clock, the 8 kHz Frame Synchronization clock and the 2
kHz Multi-Frame Synchronization clock with the same
phase.
The ACS8509 includes a microprocessor port, providing
access to the configuration and status registers for device
setup and monitoring.
The Master system clock on the ACS8509 should be
provided by an external clock oscillator of frequency

12.80 MHz. The clock specification is important for
meeting the ITU/ETSI and Telcordia performance
requirements for Holdover mode. ITU and ETSI
specifications permit a combined drift characteristic, at
constant temperature, of all non-temperature related
parameters, of up to 10 ppb per day. The same
specifications allow a drift of 1 ppm over a temperature
range of 0 to +70°C.
Table 4 ITU and ETSI Specification
In Holdover mode, the ACS8509 generates a stable, lownoise clock signal from the internal oscillator, adjusted to
match the last known good frequency of the last selected
reference source.

Please contact Semtech for information on crystal
oscillator suppliers.
Crystal Frequency Calibration
The absolute crystal frequency accuracy is less important
than the stability since any frequency offset can be
compensated by adjustment of register values in the IC.
This allows for calibration and compensation of any
crystal frequency variation away from its nominal value.
± 50 ppm adjustment would be sufficient to cope with
most crystals, in fact the range is an order of magnitude
larger due to the use of two 8-bit register locations. The
setting of the conf_nominal_frequency register allows for
this adjustment. An increase in the register value
increases the output frequencies by 0.02 ppm for each
LSB step. The default value (in decimal) is 39321.

ACS8509 SETS
ADVANCED COMMUNICATIONS
FINAL
The minimum being 0 and the maximum 65535, gives a
-700 ppm to +500 ppm adjustment range of the output
frequencies.
For example, if the crystal was oscillating at 12.8 MHz
+ 5 ppm, then the calibration value in the register to give
a -5 ppm adjustment in output frequencies to
compensate for the crystal inaccuracy, would be:
39321 - (5 / 0.02) = 39071 (decimal)
frequency being 77.76 MHz. The actual spot frequencies
supported are:
• 2 kHz,
• 4 kHz,
• 8 kHz (and N x 8 kHz),
• 1.544 MHz (SONET)/2.048 MHz (SDH),
• 6.48 MHz,
Input Interfaces
• 19.44 MHz,
The ACS8509 supports up to four input reference clock
sources from input types TIN1, TIN2 and TIN3 using TTL/
CMOS I/O technologies. These interface technologies
support +3.3 V and +5 V operation.
• 25.92 MHz,
• 38.88 MHz,
• 51.84 MHz,
• 77.76 MHz.
Over-Voltage Protection
The ACS8509 may require Over-Voltage Protection on
input reference clock ports according to ITU
Recommendation K.41. Semtech protection devices are
recommended for this purpose (see separate Semtech
data book).
Input Reference Clock Ports
Table 6 gives details of the input reference ports, showing
the input technologies and the range of frequencies
supported on each port; the default spot frequencies and
default priorities assigned to each port on power-up or by
reset are also shown. Note that SDH and SONET networks
use different default frequencies; the network type is pinselectable using the SONSDHB pin). Specific frequencies
and priorities are set by configuration.
Although each input port is shown as belonging to one of
the types, TIN1, TIN2 or TIN3, they are fully interchangeable
as long as the selected speed is within the maximum
operating speed of the input port technology.
SDH and SONET networks use different default
frequencies; the network type is selectable using the

The frequency selection is programmed via the
cnfg_ref_source_frequency register. The internal DPLL
will normally lock to the selected input at the frequency of
the input, e.g. 19.44 MHz will lock the DPLL phase
comparisons at 19.44 MHz. It is, however, possible to
utilize an internal pre-divider to the DPLL to divide the
input frequency before it is used for phase comparisons in
the DPLL. This pre-divider can be used in one of 2 ways:
1. Any of the supported spot frequencies can be divided
to 8 kHz by setting the lock8K bit (bit 6) in the
appropriate cnfg_ref_source_frequency register
location. For good jitter tolerance for all frequencies
and for operation at 19.44 MHz and above, use
lock8K. It is possible to choose which edge of the
8 kHz input to lock to, by setting the appropriate bit of
the cnfg_control1 register.
2. Any multiple of 8 kHz between 1544 kHz to 100 MHz
can be supported by using the DivN feature (bit 7 of
the cnfg_ref_source_frequency register). Any
reference input can be set to use DivN independently
of the frequencies and configurations of the other
inputs.
Any reference input with the DivN bit set in the
cnfg_ref_source_frequency register will employ the
internal pre-divider prior to the DPLL locking.
The cnfg_freq_divn register contains the divider ratio N
where the reference input will get divided by (N+1) where
0<N<214-1. The cnfg_ref_source_frequency register
must be set to the closest supported spot frequency to the
input frequency, but must be lower than the input
frequency. When using the DivN feature the post-divider

frequency must be 8 kHz, which is indicated by setting the
lock8k bit high (bit 6 in cnfg_ref_source_frequency
register). Any input set to DivN must have the frequency
monitors disabled (If the frequency monitors are disabled,
they are disabled for all inputs regardless of the input
configurations, in this case only activity monitoring will
take place). Whilst any number of inputs can be set to use
the DivN feature, only one N can be programmed, hence
all inputs using the DivN feature must require the same
division to get to 8 kHz.
To lock to 2.000 MHz:
1. The cnfg_ref_source_frequency register is set to
11XX0001 (binary) to set the DivN, lock8k bits, and
the frequency to E1/DS1. (XX = “leaky bucket” ID for

The ACS8509 is compliant to the requirements of all
relevant standards, principally ITU Recommendation
G.825[15], ANSI T1.101-1999[1] and ETSI ETS 300 462-5
(1996)[4].
All reference clock inputs have a tight frequency tolerance
but a generous jitter tolerance. Pullin, hold-in and pull-out
ranges are specified for each input port in Table 7.
Minimum jitter tolerance masks are specified in Figures 3
and 4, and Tables 8 and 9, respectively. The ACS8509 will
tolerate wander and jitter components greater than those
shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, up to a limit determined
by a combination of the apparent long-term frequency
offset caused by wander and the eye-closure caused by
jitter (the input source will be rejected if the offset pushes

the frequency outside the hold-in range for long enough to
be detected, whilst the signal will also be rejected if the
eye closes sufficiently to affect the signal purity). The
“8klock” mode should be engaged for high jitter tolerance
according to these masks. All reference clock ports are
monitored for quality, including frequency offset and
general activity. Single short-term interruptions in
selected reference clocks may not cause
rearrangements, whilst longer interruptions, or multiple,
short-term interruptions, will cause rearrangements, as
will frequency offsets which are sufficiently large or
sufficiently long to cause loss-of-lock in the phase-locked
loop. The failed reference source will be removed from the
priority table and declared as unserviceable, until its
perceived quality has been restored to an acceptable
level.
DATASHEET
The registers sts_curr_inc_offset (address 0C, 0D, 07)
report the frequency of the DPLL with respect to the
external TCXO frequency. This is a 19-bit signed number
with one LSB representing 0.0003 ppm (range of
±80 ppm). Reading this regularly can show how the
currently locked source is varying in value e.g. due to
wander on its input.
The ACS8509 performs automatic frequency monitoring
with an acceptable input frequency offset range of
±16.6 ppm. The ACS8509 DPLL has a programmable
frequency limit of ±80 ppm. If the range is programmed to
be > 16.6 ppm, the frequency monitors should be
disabled so the input reference source is not
automatically rejected as out of frequency range.

Frame Sync (8 kHz) and Multi-Frame Sync (2 kHz) clocks
are provided on outputs “FrSync” and “MFrSync”. The
FrSync and MFrSync clocks have a 50:50 mark space
ratio. These are driven from the TOUT0 clock. They are
synchronized with their counterparts in a second
ACS8509 device (if used), using the technique described
later.
Output Clock Ports
The device supports a set of main output clocks, TOUT0
and TOUT4, and a pair of secondary output clocks, “Frame
Sync” and “Multi-Frame Sync”. The two main output
clocks, TOUT0 and TOUT4, are independent of each other
and are individually selectable. The two secondary output
clocks, Frame Sync and Multi-Frame Sync, are derived
from TOUT0. The frequencies of the output clocks are
selectable from a range of pre-defined spot frequencies
and a variety of output technologies are supported, as
defined in Table 10.

Low-speed Output Clock (TOUT4)
The TOUT4 clock is supplied on output port O4. This port
will provide a TTL/CMOS signal at either 1.544 MHz or
2.048 MHz, depending on the setting of the SONSDHB
pin.
High-speed Output Clock (Part of TOUT0)
The TOUT0 port has multiple outputs. Output O1 is
differential and can support clocks up to 155.52 MHz.
Output O2 is a TTL/CMOS output with a choice of 11
different frequencies up to 51.84 MHz. Output O3 is a
TTL/CMOS output with fixed frequency of 19.44 MHz.
Each output is individually configured to operate at the
frequencies shown in Table 10 (configuration must be
consistent between ACS8509 devices for protectionswitching to be effective - output clocks will be phasealigned between devices). Using the
cnfg_differential_outputs register, output O1 can be
made to be LVDS or PECL compatible.

Low Jitter Multiple E1/DS1 Outputs
This feature is activated using the cnfg_control1 register.
This sends a frequency of twice the Dig2 rate (see reg
addr 39h, bits 7:6) to the APLL instead of the normal
77.76 MHz. For this feature to be used, the Dig2 rate
must only be set to 12352 kHz/16384 kHz using the
cnfg_T0_output_frequencies register. The normal OC-3
rate outputs are then replaced with E1/DS1 multiple
rates. The E1(SONET)/DS1(SDH) selection is made in the
same way as for Dig2 using the cnfg_T0_output_enable
register.
Table 11 shows the relationship between primary output
frequencies and the corresponding output in E1/DS1
mode, and from which output they are available.
Output Wander and Jitter
Wander and jitter present on the output clocks are
dependent on:
1. The magnitude of wander and jitter on the selected
input reference clock (in Locked mode).
Revision 2.00/January 2006 © Semtech Corp.
2. The internal wander and jitter transfer characteristic
(in Locked mode).
3. The jitter on the local oscillator clock.
4. The wander on the local oscillator clock (in Holdover
mode).
Wander and jitter are treated in different ways to reflect
their differing impacts on network design. Jitter is always
strongly attenuated, whilst wander attenuation can be
varied to suit the application and operating state. Wander
and jitter attenuation is performed using a digital phase
locked loop (DPLL) with a programmable bandwidth. This
gives a transfer characteristic of a low pass filter, with a
programmable pole. It is sometimes necessary to change
the filter dynamics to suit particular circumstances - one
example being when locking to a new source, the filter can
be opened up to reduce locking time and can then be
gradually tightened again to remove wander. Since
wander represents a relatively long-term deviation from
the nominal operating frequency, it affects the rate of
supply of data to the network element. Strong wander
attenuation limits the rate of consumption of data to
within a smaller range, so a larger buffer store is required
to prevent data loss. But, since any buffer store potentially

increases latency, wander may often only need to be
removed at specific points within a network where buffer
stores are acceptable, such as at digital cross connects.
Otherwise, wander is sometimes not required to be
attenuated and can be passed through transparently. The
ACS8509 has programmable wander transfer
characteristics in a range from 0.1 Hz to 20 Hz. The
wander and jitter transfer characteristic is shown in
Figure 5.
Wander on the local oscillator clock will not have
significant effect on the output clock whilst in Locked
mode, so long as the DPLL bandwidth is set high enough
so that the DPLL can compensate quickly enough for any
frequency changes in the crystal. In Free-run or Holdover
mode wander on the crystal is more significant. Variation
in crystal temperature or supply voltage both cause drifts
in operating frequency, as does ageing. These effects

must be limited by careful selection of a suitable
component for the local oscillator, as specified in the
Section “Local Oscillator Clock” on page 8.
Phase Variation
There will be a phase shift across the ACS8509 between
the selected input reference source and the output clock.
This phase shift may vary over time but will be constrained
to lie within specified limits. The phase shift is
characterized using two parameters, MTIE (Maximum
Time Interval Error), and TDEV (Time Deviation), which,
although being specified in all relevant specifications,
differ in acceptable limits in each one. Typical
measurements for the ACS8509 are shown in Figures 6
and 7, for Locked mode operation. Figure 8 shows a
typical measurement of Phase Error accumulation in
Holdover mode operation.

slips (of 125 µs each) occur during the first day of
Holdover. This requires a frequency accuracy better
than:
The required performance for phase variation during
Holdover is specified in several ways depending upon the
particular circumstances pertaining:
1. ETSI 300 462-5, Section 9.1, requires that the short
term phase error during switchover (i.e., Locked to
Holdover to Locked) be limited to an accumulation
rate no greater than 0.05 ppm during a 15 second
interval.
2. ETSI 300 462-5, Section 9.2, requires that the long
term phase error in the Holdover mode should not
exceed:
((24x60x60)+(255x125µs))/(24x60x60) = 0.37 ppm
Temperature variation is not restricted, except to
within the normal bounds of 0 to 50 °C.
4. Telcordia GR.1244.CORE, Section 5.2., Table 4,
shows that an initial frequency offset of 50 ppb is
permitted on entering Holdover, whilst a drift over
temperature of 280 ppb is allowed; an allowance of
40 ppb is permitted for all other effects.

a1 = 50 ns/s (allowance for initial frequency offset)
a2 = 2000 ns/s (allowance for temperature variation)
b = 1.16 x 10-4 ns/s2 (allowance for ageing)
c = 120 ns (allowance for entry into Holdover mode).
5. ITU G.822, Section 2.6, requires that the slip rate
during category (b) operation (interpreted as being
applicable to Holdover mode operation) be limited to

Phase Build-Out
FINAL
Microprocessor Interface
Phase Build-Out (PBO) is the function to minimize phase
transients on the output SEC clock during input reference
switching. If the currently selected input reference clock
source is lost (due to a short interruption, out of frequency
detection, or complete loss of reference), the second, next
highest priority reference source will be selected. During
this transition, the Lost_Phase mode is entered.
The ACS8509 incorporates a microprocessor interface,
which can be configured for the following modes via the
bus interface mode control pins UPSEL(2:0) as defined in
Table 12.
Table 12 Microprocessor Interface Mode Selection
UPSEL(2:0)
The typical phase disturbance on clock reference source
switching will be less than 12 ns on the ACS8509. For
clock reference switching caused by the main input failing
or being disconnected, then the phase disturbance on the
output will still be less than the 120 ns allowed for in the
G.813 spec. The actual value is dependent on the
frequency being locked to.
ITU-T G.813 states that the max allowable short term
phase transient response, resulting from a switch from
one clock source to another, with Holdover mode entered
in between, should be a maximum of 1 µs over a 15
second interval. The maximum phase transient or jump
should be less than 120 ns at a rate of change of less
than 7.5 ppm and the Holdover performance should be
better than 0.05 ppm.
On the ACS8509, PBO can be enabled, disabled or frozen
using the µP interface. By default, it is enabled. When PBO
is enabled, it can also be frozen, which will disable the
PBO operation on the next input reference switch, but will
remain with the current offset. If PBO is disabled while the
device is in the Locked mode, there will be a phase jump
on the output SEC clocks as the DPLL locks back to 0
degree phase error.

The value in the chip_id location (address 00 & 01) is

are required.
are set (high) by the following conditions:
Register Set
All interrupt sources are maskable via the mask register,
each one being enabled by writing a “1” to the appropriate
bit. Any unmasked bit set in the interrupt status register
will cause the interrupt request pin to be asserted (high).
All interrupts are cleared by writing a “1” to the bit(s) to be
cleared in the status register. When all pending
unmasked interrupts are cleared the interrupt pin will go
inactive (low).
All registers are 8-bits wide, organized with the mostsignificant bit positioned in the left-most bit, with bit
significance decreasing towards the right most bit. Some
registers carry several individual data fields of various
sizes, from single-bit values (e.g. flags) upwards. Several
data fields are spread across multiple registers; their
organization is shown in the register map, Table 13.
Configuration Registers
Each configuration register reverts to a default value on
power-up or following a reset. Most default values are
fixed, but some will be pinsettable. All configuration
registers can be read out over the microprocessor port.
Status Registers
The Status Registers contain readable registers. They may
all be read from outside the chip but are not writeable
from outside the chip (except for a clearing operation). All
status registers are read via shadow registers to avoid
data hits due to dynamic operation. Each individual status
register has a unique location.
Register Access
Most registers are of one of two types, configuration
registers or status registers, the exceptions being the
chip_ID and chip_revision registers. Configuration
registers may be written to or read from at any time (the
complete 8-bit register must be written, even if only one
bit is being modified). All status registers may be read at
any time and, in some status registers (such as the
sts_interrupts register), any individual data field may be
cleared by writing a “1” into each bit of the field (writing a
“0” value into a bit will not affect the value of the bit). A
description of each register is given in the Register Map,
and Register Map Description.

3. A brief loss of the currently selected reference source.
The loss of the currently selected reference source will
eventually cause the input to be considered invalid,
triggering an interrupt. The time taken to raise this
interrupt is dependant on the leaky bucket configuration
of the activity monitors. The fastest leaky bucket setting
will still take up to 128 ms to trigger the interrupt. The
interrupt caused by the brief loss of the currently selected
reference source is provided to facilitate very fast source
failure detection if desired. It is triggered after missing just
a couple of cycles of the reference source. Some
applications require the facility to switch downstream
devices based on the status of the reference sources. In
order to provide extra flexibility, it is possible to flag the
“main reference failed” interrupt (addr 06, bit 6) on the
pin TDO. This is simply a copy of the status bit in the
interrupt register and is independent of the mask register
settings. The bit is reset by writing to the interrupt status
register in the normal way. This feature can be enabled
and disabled by writing to bit 6 of register 48Hex.
Register Map
Shaded areas in the map are “don’t care” and writing
either 0 or 1 will not affect any function of the device. Bits
labelled Set to 0 or Set to 1 must be set as stated during
initialization of the device, either following power-up, or
after a power-on reset (POR). Failure to correctly set these
bits may result in the device operating in an unexpected
way.
Some registers do not appear in this list. These are either
not used, or have test functionality. Do not write to any
undefined registers as this may cause the device to
operate in a test mode. If an undefined register has been
inadvertently addressed, the device should be reset to
ensure the undefined registers are at default values.

Bits (7:6) Unused.
Bit 5
=1 32/24 MHz to APLL: Feeds 2x Dig2 frequency to the APLL instead of the normal
77.76 MHz. Thus the normal OC-3/STM1 outputs are replaced with multiple E1/T1
rates. Note: Dig2 set bits (Reg. 39h Bits (7:6)) must be set to 11 for this mode.
=0 77.76MHz to APLL.
Bit 4
=1 Synchronizes the dividers in the output APLL section to the dividers in the DPLL
section such that their phases align. This is necessary in order to have phase
alignment between inputs and output clocks at OC-3 derived rates (6.48 MHz to
77.76 MHz). Keeping this bit high may be necessary to avoid the dividers getting out
of synchronization when quick changes in frequency occur such as a force into
Free-run.
=0 The dividers may get out of phase following step changes in frequency, but in this
mode the correct number of high frequency edges is guaranteed within any
synchronization period. The output will frequency lock (default).
The device will always remain in synchronization 2 seconds from a reset, before the
default setting applies.
Bit 3

source. Each reference source should be given a unique number, however two
sources given the same priority number will be assigned on a first in first out basis.
It is recommended to reserve the priority value “1” as this is used when forcing
reference selection via the cnfg_ref_selection register. If the User does not intend to
use the cnfg_ref_selection register then the priority value “1” need not be reserved.

Description
Default Value (Bin)
This register is used to set up each of the 4 input reference sources.
Bits (7:6) of each byte defines the operation undertaken on the input frequency, in
accordance with the following key:
00
01
10
11
The input frequency is fed directly into the DPLL. (default).
The input frequency is internally divided down to 8 kHz, before being fed into
the DPLL. (For high jitter tolerance).
Unsupported configuration - do not use.
Uses the division coefficient stored in registers 46 and 47 (cnfg_freq_divn) to
divide the input by this value prior to being fed into the DPLL. The frequency
monitors must be disabled. The divided down frequency should equal 8 kHz.
The frequency (3:0) should be set to the nearest spot frequency just below the
actual input frequency. The DivN feature works for input frequencies between
1.544 MHz and 100 MHz.
Bits (5:4) define which leaky bucket group (0-3) is used, as defined in registers 50 to
5F. (default 00).
Bits (3:0) defines the frequency of the reference source in accordance with the
following:
0000 8 kHz,
0001 1.544 MHz (SONET)/2.048 MHz (SDH) (as defined by register 34, bit 2)
(default SEC4),

Description
Default Value (Bin)
This register contains several individual configuration fields, as detailed below:
Bit 7
=1 Auto 2 kHz Sync enable: External 2 kHz Sync will be enabled only when the source
is locked to 6.48 MHz. Otherwise it will be disabled (default)
=0 Auto 2 kHz Sync disable: The user controls this function using bit 3 of this register,
as described below.
Bit 6
=1 Phase Alarm Timeout enable: The phase alarm will timeout after 100 seconds
(default).
=0 Phase Alarm Timeout disable: The phase alarm will not timeout and must be reset
by software.
Bit 5
=1 Rising Clock Edge selected: The device will reference to the rising edge of the
external 12.8 MHz crystal oscillator signal
=0 Falling edge Edge selected: The device will reference to the falling edge of the
external 12.8 MHz crystal oscillator signal (default).
Bit 4
=1 Holdover offset enable: The device will adopt the Holdover offset value stored in
the cnfg_holdover_offset register, in order to set the frequency in Holdover
=0 Holdover offset disable: The device will ignore the value and Holdover will freeze
the frequency of the DPLL on entering Holdover mode (default).
Bit 3
= 1 External 2 kHz Sync Enable: The device will align the phase of its internally
generated Frame Sync signal (8 kHz) and Multi-Frame Sync signal (2 kHz) with that of
the signal supplied to the Sync2K pin. The device should be locked to a 6.48 MHz
output from another ACS8509.
= 0 External 2 kHz Sync Disable: The device will ignore the Sync2k pin.
Bit 2
= 1 SONET Mode: The device expects the input frequency of any input channel given
the value '0001' in the cnfg_ref_source_frequency register to be 1544 kHz
= 0 SDH Mode: The device expects the input frequency of any input channel given the
value “0001” in the cnfg_ref_source_frequency register to be 2048 kHz.

interface will initially be set as the pins UPSEL (pins 58 - 60) - the pin set up can be

this setting.
This register can be used to change the microprocessor mode after start up,
supporting booting from EPROM and subsequently communicating via another mode.
At start up the EPROM will down load the pre-programmed settings for all the
registers, and as the last operation, action the change of interface with this last

DATASHEET
Also, in a Master/Slave redundancy-protection scheme,
Selection of Input Reference Clock Source
Under normal operation, the input reference sources are
selected automatically by an order of priority. But, for
special circumstances, such as chip or board testing, the
selection may be forced by configuration.
Automatic operation selects a reference source based on
its pre-defined priority and its current availability. A table
is maintained which lists all reference sources in the order
of priority. This is initially downloaded into the ACS8509
via the microprocessor interface by the Network Manager,
and is subsequently modified by the results of the ongoing
quality monitoring. In this way, when all the defined
sources are active and valid, the source with the highest
programmed priority is selected but, if this source fails,
the next-highest source is selected, and so on.
Restoration of repaired reference sources is handled
carefully to avoid inadvertent disturbance of the output
clock. The ACS8509 has two modes of operation;
Revertive and Non-Revertive. In Revertive mode, if a
revalidated (or newly validated) source has a higher
priority than the reference source which is currently
selected, a switchover will take place. Many applications
prefer to minimize the clock switching events and choose
Non-Revertive mode. In Non-Revertive mode, when a
re-validated (or newly validated) source has a higher
priority then the selected source will be maintained. The
re-validation of the reference source will be flagged in the
sts_sources_valid register and, if not masked, will
generate an interrupt.
Selection of the re-validated source can only take place
under software control - the software should briefly
enable Revertive mode to affect a switchover to the higher
priority source. If the selected source fails under these
conditions the device will indicate that it is still locked to
the failed reference. It will not select the higher priority
source until instructed to do so by the software; by briefly
setting the Revertive mode bit. When there is a reference
available with higher priority than the selected reference,
there will be NO change of reference source as long as the
Non-Revertive mode remains on AND the device will
remain indicating a locked state on the failed reference.
This is the case even if there are lower priority references
available or the currently selected reference fails. When
the ONLY valid reference sources that are available have
a lower priority than the selected reference, a failure of
the selected reference will always trigger a switchover,
regardless of whether Revertive or Non-Revertive mode
has been chosen.
Revision 2.00/January 2006 © Semtech Corp.
the Slave device(s) must follow the Master device. The
alignment of the Master and Slave devices is part of the
protection mechanism. The availability of each source is
determined by a combination of local and remote
monitoring of each source. Each input reference source
supplied to each ACS8509 device is monitored locally and
the results are made available to other devices.
Forced Control Selection
A configuration register, cnfg_ref_selection, controls both
the choice of automatic or forced selection and the
selection itself (when forced selection is required). The
forced selection of an input reference source occurs when
the cnfg_ref_selection variable contains a non-zero value,
the value then representing the input port required to be
selected. This is not the normal mode of operation, and
the cnfg_ref_selection variable is defaulted to the all-one
value on reset, thereby adopting the automatic selection
of the reference source.
Automatic Control Selection
When an automatic selection is required, the
cnfg_ref_selection register must be set to all zero or all
one. The configuration registers,
cnfg_ref_selection_priority, held in the µP port block,
consists of 3, 8-bit registers organised as one 4-bit
register per input reference port. Each register holds a 4bit value which represents the desired priority of that
particular port. Unused ports should be given the value,
“0000” or “1111”, in the relevant register to indicate they
are not to be included in the priority table. On power-up, or
following a reset, the whole of the configuration file will be
defaulted to the values defined by Table 6. The selection
priority values are all relative to each other, with lowervalued numbers taking higher priorities. Each reference
source should be given a unique number, the valid values
are 1 to 15 (dec). A value of 0 disables the reference
source. However if two or more inputs are given the same
priority number those inputs will be selected on a first in,
first out basis.
If the first of two same priority number sources goes
invalid the second will be switched in. If the first then
becomes valid again, it becomes the second source on
the first in, first out basis, and there will not be a switch. If
a third source with the same priority number as the other
two becomes valid, it joins the priority list on the same
first in, first out basis. There is no implied priority based on
the channel numbers.

The input port <SEC3> is for the connection of the
synchronous clock of the TOUT0 output of the Master
device (or the active-Slave device), to be used to align the
TOUT0 output with the Master (or active-Slave) device if
this device is acting in a subordinate-Slave or
subordinate-Master role.
Ultra Fast Switching
A reference source is normally disqualified after the leaky
bucket monitor thresholds have been crossed. An option
for a faster disqualification has been implemented,
whereby if register 48H, bit 5 (Ultra Fast Switching), is set
then a loss of activity of just a few reference clock cycles
will set the “no activity alarm” and cause a reference
switch. This can be chosen to cause an interrupt to occur
instead of or as well as causing the reference switch. The
sts_interrupts register 05 Hex Bit 14 (main_ref_failed) of
the interrupt status register is used to flag inactivity on the
reference that the device is locked to much faster than
the activity monitors can support. If bit 6 of the
cnfg_monitors register (flag ref loss on TDO) is set, then
the state of this bit is driven onto the TDO pin of the
device.
The flagging of the loss of the main reference failure on
TDO is simply allowing the status of the sts_interrupt bit
14 to be reflected in the state of the TDO output pin. The
pin will, therefore remain High until the interrupt is
cleared. This functionality is not enabled by default so the
usual JTAG functions can be used. When JTAG is normally
used straight out of power-up, then this feature will have
no bearing on the functionality. The TDO flagging feature
will need to be disabled if JTAG is not enabled on powerup and the feature has since been enabled.
When the TDO output from the ACS8509 is connected to
the TDI pin of the next device in the JTAG scan chain, the
implementation should be such that a logic change
caused by the action of the interrupt on the TDI input
should not effect the operation when JTAG is not active.
Clock Quality Monitoring
Clock quality is monitored and used to modify the priority
tables of the local and remote ACS8509 devices. The
following parameters are monitored:
Revision 2.00/January 2006 © Semtech Corp.
DATASHEET
1. Activity (toggling)
2. Frequency (This monitoring is only performed when
there is no irregular operation of the clock or loss of clock
condition)
Any reference source which suffers a loss-of-signal, lossof-activity, loss-of-regularity or clock out-of-band condition
will be declared as unavailable.
Clock quality monitoring is a continuous process which is
used to identify clock problems. There is a difference in
dynamics between the selected clock and the other
reference clocks. Anomalies occurring on non-selected
reference sources affect only that source's suitability for
selection, whereas anomalies occurring on the selected
clock could have a detrimental impact on the accuracy of
the output clock.
Anomalies, whether affecting signal purity or signal
frequency, could induce jitter or frequency offsets in the
output clock, leading to anomalous behavior. Anomalies
on the selected clock, therefore, have to be detected as
they occur and the phase locked loop must be temporarily
isolated until the clock is once again pure. The clock
monitoring process cannot be used for this because the
high degree of accuracy required dictates that the
process be slow.
To achieve the immediacy required by the phase locked
loop requires an alternative mechanism. The phase
locked loop itself contains appropriate circuitry, based
around the phase detector, and isolates itself from the
selected reference source as soon as a signal impurity is
detected. It can likewise respond to frequency offsets
outside the permitted range since these result in
saturation of the phase detector. When the phase locked
loop is isolated from the reference source, it is essentially
operating in a Holdover state; this is preferable to feeding
the loop with a standby source, either temporarily or
permanently, since excessive phase excursions on the
output clock are avoided. Anomalies detected by the
phase detector are integrated in a leaky bucket
accumulator. Occasional anomalies do not cause the
accumulator to cross the alarm setting threshold, so the
selected reference source is retained. Persistent
anomalies cause the alarm setting threshold to be
crossed and result in the selected reference source being
rejected.

Leaky Bucket Timing
Activity Monitoring
The time taken (in seconds) to raise an inactivity alarm on
a reference source that has previously been fully active
(Leaky Bucket empty) will be:
The ACS8509 has a combined inactivity and irregularity
monitor. The ACS8509 uses a “leaky bucket”
accumulator, which is a digital circuit which mimics the
operation of an analog integrator, in which input pulses
increase the output amplitude but die away over time.
Such integrators are used when alarms have to be
triggered either by fairly regular defect events, which
occur sufficiently close together, or by defect events
which occur in bursts. Events which are sufficiently
spread out should not trigger the alarm. By adjusting the
alarm setting threshold, the point at which the alarm is
triggered can be controlled. The point at which the alarm
is cleared depends upon the decay rate and the alarm
clearing threshold. On the alarm setting side, if several
events occur close together, each event adds to the
amplitude and the alarm will be triggered quickly; if events
occur a little more spread out, but still sufficiently close
together to overcome the decay, the alarm will be
triggered eventually. If events occur at a rate which is not
sufficient to overcome the decay, the alarm will not be
triggered. On the alarm clearing side, if no defect events
occur for a sufficient time, the amplitude will decay
gradually and the alarm will be cleared when the
amplitude falls below the alarm clearing threshold. The
ability to decay the amplitude over time allows the
importance of defect events to be reduced as time passes
by. This means that, in the case of isolated events, the
(cnfg_upper_threshold_n) / 8
where n is the number (0 to 3) of the Leaky Bucket
Configuration. If an input is intermittently inactive then
this time can be longer. The default setting of
cnfg_upper_threshold_n is 6, therefore the default time is
0.75 s.
The time taken (in seconds) to cancel the activity alarm on
a previously completely inactive reference source is
calculated, for a particular Leaky Bucket, as:
[2 (a) x (b - c)]/ 8
where:
a = cnfg_decay_rate_n
b = cnfg_bucket_size_n
c = cnfg_lower_threshold_n
(where n = the number (0 to 3) of the relevant
Leaky Bucket Configuration in each case).

alarm will not be set, whereas, once the alarm becomes
set, it will be held on until normal operation has persisted
for a suitable time (but if the operation is still erratic, the
alarm will remain set). See Figure 9.
The “leaky bucket” accumulators are programmable for
size, alarm set & reset thresholds and decay rate. Each
source is monitored over a 128 ms period. If, within a 128
ms period, an irregularity occurs that is not deemed to be
due to allowable jitter/wander, then the accumulator is
incremented. The accumulator will continue to increment
up to the point that it reaches the programmed bucket
size. The “fill rate” of the leaky bucket is, therefore, 8
units/second.
The “leak rate” of the leaky bucket is programmable to be
in multiples of the fill rate (x1, x0.5, x0.25 and x0.125) to
give a programmable leak rate from 8 units/sec down to
1 unit/sec. A conflict between trying to “leak” at the same
time as a “fill” is avoided by preventing a “leak” when a
“fill” event occurs. Disqualification of a non-selected
reference source is based on inactivity, or on an out of
band result from the frequency monitors. The currently
selected reference source can be disqualified for phase,
frequency, inactivity or if the source is outside the DPLL
lock range. If the currently selected reference source is
disqualified, the next highest priority, active reference
source is selected.
Frequency Monitoring
The ACS8509 performs frequency monitoring to identify
reference sources which have drifted outside the
acceptable frequency range of ±16.6 ppm (measured
with respect to the output clock). The
sts_reference_sources out-of-band alarm for a particular
reference source is raised when the reference source is
outside the acceptable frequency range. The ACS8509
DPLL has a programmable frequency limit of ±80 ppm. If
the range is programmed to be > 16.6 ppm, the frequency
monitors should be disabled so the input reference
source is not automatically rejected as out of frequency
range.
Modes of Operation
The ACS8509 has three primary modes of operation
(Free-run, Locked and Holdover) supported by three
secondary, temporary modes (Pre-Locked, Lost_Phase
and Pre-Locked2). These are shown in the State
Transition Diagram, Figure 10.
Revision 2.00/January 2006 © Semtech Corp.
DATASHEET
The ACS8509 can operate in Forced or Automatic control.
On reset, the ACS8509 reverts to Automatic Control,
where transitions between states are controlled
completely automatically. Forced Control can be invoked
by configuration, allowing transitions to be performed
under external control. This is not the normal mode of
operation, but is provided for special occasions such as
testing, or where a high degree of hands-on control is
required.
Free-run mode
The Free-run mode is typically used following a power-onreset or a device reset before network synchronization
has been achieved. In the Free-run mode, the timing and
synchronization signals generated from the ACS8509 are
based on the Master clock frequency provided from the
external oscillator and are not synchronized to an input
reference source. The frequency of the output clock is a
fixed multiple of the frequency of the external oscillator,
and the accuracy of the output clock is equal to the
accuracy of the Master clock.
The transition from Free-run to Pre-locked occurs when
the ACS8509 selects a reference source.
Pre-Locked mode
The ACS8509 will enter the Locked state in a maximum of
100 seconds, as defined by GR-1244-CORE specification,
if the selected reference source is of good quality. If the
device cannot achieve lock within 100 seconds, it reverts
to Free-run mode and another reference source is
selected.
Locked mode
The Locked mode is used when an input reference source
has been selected and the PLL has had time to lock.
When the Locked mode is achieved, the output signal is in
phase and locked to the selected input reference source.
The selected input reference source is determined by the
priority table.
When the ACS8509 is in Locked mode, the output
frequency and phase follows that of the selected input
reference source. Variations of the external crystal
frequency have a minimal effect on the output frequency.
Only the minimum to maximum frequency range is
affected. Note that the term, “in phase”, is not applied in
the conventional sense when the ACS8509 is used as a
frequency translator (e.g., when the input frequency is
2.048 MHz and the output frequency is 19.44 MHz) as

FINAL
the input and output cycles will be constantly moving past
each other; however, this variation will itself be cyclical
over time unless the input and output are not locked.
Lost_Phase mode
Lost-phase mode is entered when the current phase
error, as measured within the DPLL, is larger than a preset
limit (see register 04, bits 5:3), as a result of a frequency
or phase transient on the selected reference source.
This mode is similar in behavior to the Pre-locked or
Pre-locked(2) modes, although in this mode the DPLL is
attempting to regain lock to the same reference rather
than attempt lock to a new reference.
If the DPLL cannot regain lock within 100 s, the source is
disqualified, and one of the following transitions takes
place:
1. Go to Pre-Locked(2);
- If a known-good standby source is available.
2. Go to Holdover;
- If no standby sources are available.
Holdover mode
The Holdover mode is used when the ACS8509 has been
in Locked mode for long enough to acquire stable
frequency data, but the final selected reference source
has become unavailable and a replacement has not yet
been qualified for selection. In Holdover mode, the
ACS8509 provides the timing and synchronization signals
to maintain the Network Element (NE), but they are not
phase locked to any input reference source.
The timing is based on a stored value of the frequency
ratio obtained during the last Locked mode period.
To allow for further development of the way the internal
algorithm operates, and to allow for customized switching
behavior, the switch to and from Holdover state may be
controlled by external software.
The device must be set in either “manual” mode or
“automatic” mode:
1. Register cnfg_mode bit holdover offset enable set high
(manual mode). The Holdover frequency is determined by
the value in register cnfg_holdover_offset. This is a 19 bit
signed number, with a LSB resolution of 0.0003 ppm,
which gives an adjustment range of ±80 ppm. This value
can be derived from a reading of the register
sts_curr_inc_offset (addr 0D, 0C and 07) which gives, in
Revision 2.00/January 2006 © Semtech Corp.
DATASHEET
the same format, an indication of the current output
frequency deviation, which would be read when the
device is locked. If required, this value could be read by an
external microcontroller and averaged over the time
required. The averaged value could then be fed to the
cnfg_holdover_offset register ready for setting of the
averaged frequency value when the device enters
Holdover mode. The sts_curr_inc_offset value is internally
derived from the Digital Phase Locked Loop (DPLL)
integral path value, which already represents a well
averaged measure of the current frequency, depending
on the loop bandwidth selected.
2. Register cnfg_mode bit holdover offset enable set low
(automatic mode). In automatic control, the device can be
run in one of two ways:
2.1 Register cnfg_holdover_offset register 40 bit 7 auto
holdover averaging is set high. The value is averaged
internally over 32 samples at 32 seconds apart, giving the
average frequency over approximately the last 20
minutes. The proportional DPLL path is ignored so that
recent signal disturbances do not affect the Holdover
frequency value. If the device has been previously
correctly locked, missing pulses in the input clock stream
fed to the SETS IC are ignored, hence also avoiding any
frequency disturbances to the output frequency value
when an input clock source fails.
2.2 Register cnfg_holdover_offset register 40 bit 7 auto
holdover averaging is set low. This simply freezes the
DPLL at the current frequency (as reported by the
sts_curr_inc_offset register). The proportional DPLL path
is ignored so that recent signal disturbances do not affect
the Holdover frequency value.
Automatic control with internal averaging (option 2.1) is
the default condition. If the TCXO frequency is varying due
to temperature fluctuations in the room, then the
instantaneous value can be different from the average
value, and then it may be possible to exceed the
0.05 ppm limit (depending on how extreme the
temperature fluctuations are). It is advantageous to
shield the TCXO to slow down frequency changes due to
drift and external temperature fluctuations.
The frequency accuracy of Holdover mode has to meet the
ITU-T, ETSI and Telcordia performance requirements. The
performance of the external oscillator clock is critical in
this mode, although only the frequency stability is
important - the stability of the output clock in Holdover is
directly related to the stability of the external oscillator.

FINAL
Pre-Locked(2) mode
This state is very similar to the Pre-Locked state. It is
entered from the Holdover state when a reference source
has been selected and applied to the phase locked loop.
It is also entered if the device is operating in Revertive
mode and a higher-priority reference source is restored.
Upon applying a reference source to the phase locked
loop, the ACS8509 will enter the Locked state in a
maximum of 100 seconds, as defined by GR-1244-CORE
specification, if the selected reference source is of good
quality.
If the device cannot achieve lock within 100 seconds, it
reverts to Holdover mode and another reference source is
selected.
Protection Facility
The ACS8509 supports redundancy protection. The
primary functions of this include:
- Alignment of the priority tables of both Master and Slave
ACS8509 devices so as to align the selection of reference
sources of both Master and Slave ACS8509 devices.
- Alignment of the phases of the 8 kHz and 2 kHz clocks in
both Master and Slave ACS8509 devices to within one
cycle of the 77.76 MHz internal clock.
When two ACS8509 devices are to be used in a
redundancy-protection scheme within an NE, one will be
designated as the Master and the other as the Slave. It is
expected that an NE will use the TOUT0 output for its
internal operations because the TOUT4 output is intended
to feed an SSU/BITS system. An SSU/BITS will not be
bothered by phase differences between signals arriving
from different sources because it typically incorporates
line build-out functions to absorb phase differences on
reference inputs. This means that the phasing of the
composite clocks between two ACS8509 devices do not
have to be mutually-aligned.
The same is not true, however, of the TOUT0 output signals
(O1 ,O2, O3, Frame clock and Multi-Frame clock). It is
usually important to align the phases of all equivalent
TOUT0 signals generated by different sources so that
switch-over from one device to another does not affect the
internal operations of the NE. Both ACS8509 devices will
produce the same signals, which will be routed around the
NE to the various consumers (clock sinks). With the
possible exception of a through-timing mode, the signals
from the Master device will be used by all consumers,
Revision 2.00/January 2006 © Semtech Corp.
DATASHEET
unless the Master device fails, when each consumer will
switch over to the signals generated by the Slave device.
Switchover to a new TOUT0 clock should be as hitless as
possible. This requires the signals of both ACS8509 devices
to be phase aligned at each consumer. Phase alignment
requires frequency alignment. To ensure that both
devices can generate output clocks locked to the same
source, both devices are supplied with the same
reference sources on the same input ports and will have
identical priority tables.
Failures of selected reference sources will result in both
ACS8509 devices making the same updates to their
priority tables as availability information will be updated in
both devices. Although, in principle, the priority tables will
be the same if the same reference sources are used on
the same input port on each device, in practice, this is
only true if the reference sources actually arrive at each
device - failures of a source seen only by one device and
not by the other, such as could be caused, for example, by
a backplane connector failure, would result in the priority
tables becoming misaligned. It is thus necessary to force
the priority tables to be aligned under normal operating
conditions so that the devices can make the same
decisions - this can be achieved by loading the availability
seen by one device (via the sts_reference_sources
register) into the cnfg_sts_remote_sources_valid register
of the other device.
Another factor which could affect hit-less switching is the
frequency of the local oscillator clock used by each
ACS8509 device: these clocks are not mutually aligned
and, whilst this has no impact on the frequency of the
output clocks during locked mode, it could cause the
output frequencies to diverge during Holdover mode if no
action were taken to avoid it.
In order to maintain alignment of the output frequencies
of each ACS8509 device even during Holdover, the Master
device's 6.48 MHz output is fed into the Slave device on
its SEC3 pin, whilst the Multi-Frame Sync (2 kHz) output is
fed to the Sync2k input of the Slave. In this way, the Slave
locks to the master's output and remains locked whilst
the Master moves between operating states. Only when
the Master fails does the Slave use its own reference
inputs - should the Master have been in the Holdover
state, the Slave device will see the same lack of reference
sources and also enter the Holdover state. This scheme
also provides a convenient way to phase-align all TOUT0
output clocks in Master and Slave devices, and also to
detect the failure of the Master device.

FINAL
DATASHEET
If a Master device fails, the Slave has to take over
responsibility for the generation of the output clocks,
including the 8 kHz and 2 kHz Frame and Multi-Frame
clocks. The Slave device is also given responsibility for
building the priority table and performing the reference
switching operations. The Slave device, therefore, adopts
a more active role when the Master has failed. The
cnfg_mode register 34 (Hex) Bit 1 contains the
Master/Slave control bit to determine the designation of
the device.
The monitoring of the reference sources performed by a
Master ACS8509 results in a list of available sources
being placed in a sts_valid_sources register. This
information is used within the device as one of the masks
used to build the device's priority table. The information is
passed to the Slave device and used to configure the
cnfg_sts_remote_sources_valid register so that it can use
it as a mask in building its own priority tables. The
information is passed between devices using the
microprocessor port.
To restore redundancy protection, the Master has to be
repaired and replaced. When this occurs, the new Master
cannot immediately adopt its normal role because it must
not cause phase hits on the output clocks. It has,
therefore, to adopt a subordinate role to the active Slave
device, at least until such time as it has acquired
alignment to the 8 kHz and 2 kHz frame and Multi-Frame
clocks and the priority table of the Slave device; then,
when a switch-back (restoration) is ordered, the Master
can take over responsibility. These activities, in Master or
Slave operation, are summarized in Table 15 and
described in detail in Application Note AN-SETS-2.
Alignment of the Selection of Reference Sources
for TOUT4 Generation in the Master and Slave
ACS8509
Alignment of Priority Tables in Master and Slave
ACS8509
Correct protection will only be achieved by connecting
individual reference sources to the same input ports on
each device and priority tables in each device must be
aligned to each other.
The Master device must take account of the availability of
each reference source seen by another device and a
Slave device must adopt the same order of priority as the
Master device (except that the Slave's highest-priority
input is SEC3). Both devices monitor the reference
sources and decide the availability of each source; if the
failure of a reference source is seen by both devices, they
will both update their priority tables - however, if the
reference source failure is only seen by one device and
not by both, the priority tables could get out of step: this
could be catastrophic if it resulted in two devices choosing
different reference sources since any slight differences in
frequency variation over time (e.g. wander) would misalign the phase of the 8 kHz Frame and 2 kHz Multi-Frame
clocks produced by the individual devices, resulting in
phase hits on switchover. It is therefore important that the
same priority table be built by each device, using the
reference source availability seen by each device.
Revision 2.00/January 2006 © Semtech Corp.
As stated previously, there is no need to align the phases
of the TOUT4 outputs in Master and Slave devices. There is
a need, however, to ensure that all devices select the
same reference source. But, since there is no Holdover
mode required for the generation of the TOUT4 clock, and
every reference source is continuously monitored within
each device, it is permissible to rely on external
intelligence to command a switchover to an alternative
source should the selected one fail. The time delay
involved in detecting the failure, indicating it to the
outside and selecting a new source, will result only in the
SSU/BITS entering its Holdover mode for a short time.
Alignment of the Phases of the 8 kHz and 2 kHz
Clocks in both Master and Slave ACS8509
In addition to aligning the edges of the TOUT0 outputs of
Master and Slave devices, it is necessary to align the
edges of the Frame and Multi-Frame clocks. If this is not
performed, frame alignment may be lost in distant
equipment on switch-over to an alternative device,
resulting in anomalous network operation of a very
serious nature.
In accordance with the alignment mechanism used with
the main TOUT0 clock (described in the opening
paragraphs of this section), whereby the 6.48 MHz output
of the Master device is supplied to the Slave device, the
alignment of both the 8 kHz and 2 kHz clocks is
accomplished (they are already synchronous to the TOUT0
clocks) by feeding the 2 kHz clock of the Master device
into the Slave device. The Multi-Frame Sync clock output
of the Slave device is also fed to the Sync2K input of the
Master device. Alignment of the Multi-Frame Sync input
occurs only when cnfg_mode register, bit 3, address
34Hex External 2 kHz Sync Enable is set to 1.

JTAG
FINAL
The JTAG connections on the ACS8509 allow a full
boundary scan to be made. The JTAG implementation is
fully compliant to IEEE 1149.1, with the following minor
exceptions, and the user should refer to the standard for
further information.
1. The output boundary scan cells do not capture data
from the core, and so do not support INTEST. However this
does not affect board testing.
2. In common with some other manufacturers, pin TRST is
internally pulled low to disable JTAG by default. The
standard is to pull high. The polarity of TRST is as the
standard: TRST high to enable JTAG boundary scan mode,
TRST low for normal operation.
DATASHEET
3. The device does not support the optional tri-state
capability (HIGHZ). This will be supported on the next
revision of the device.
The JTAG timing diagram is shown in Figure 13.
PORB
The Power On Reset (PORB) pin resets the device if forced
Low for a power on reset to be initiated. The reset is
asynchronous, the minimum Low pulse width is 5 ns.
Reset is needed to initialize all of the register values to
their defaults. Asserting Reset is required at power on,
and may be re-asserted at any time to restore defaults.
This is implemented most simplistically by an external
capacitor to GND along with the internal pull-up resistor.
The ACS8509 is held in a reset state for 250 ms after the
PORB pin has been pulled High. In normal operation PORB
should be held High.

DATASHEET
Serial Mode
In Serial mode, the device is configured to interface with a serial microprocessor bus. The combined minimum High
and Low times for SCLK define the maximum clock rate.
For Write access this is 2.77 MHz (360 ns). For Read access the maximum SCLK rate is slightly slower and is affected
by the setting of CLKE, being either 2.0 MHz (500 ns) or 1 MHz (1 us).
This mismatch in rates is caused by the sampling technique used to detect the end of the address field in Read mode.
It takes up to 3 cycles of an internal 6.40 MHz clock to start the Read process following receipt of the final address bit.
This is 468 ns. The Read data is then decoded and clocked out onto SDO directly using SCLK. With CLKE=1, the falling
edge of SCLK is used to clock out the SDO. With CLKE=0, the rising edge of SCLK is used to clock out the SDO.
A minimum period of 500 ns (468 capture plus 32 decode) is required between the final address bit and clocking it
out onto SDO. This means that to guarantee the correct operation of the Serial interface, with CLKE=0, SCLK has a
maximum clock rate of 2 MHz. With CLKE=1, SCLK has a maximum clock rate of 1 MHz.
SCLK is not required to run between accesses (i.e., when CSB = 1). The following Figures show the timing diagrams for
Write and Read access for this mode.

EPROM Mode
This mode is suitable for use with an EPROM, in which configuration data is stored (one-way communication - status
information will not be accessible). A state machine internal to the ACS8509 device will perform numerous EPROM
read operations to read the data out of the EPROM. In EPROM Mode, the ACS8509 takes control of the bus as Master
and reads the device set-up from an AMD AM27C64 type EPROM at lowest speed (250ns) after device set-up (system
reset). The EPROM access state machine in the up interface sequences the accesses. Figure 23 shows the access
timing of the device in EPROM mode.
Further information can be found in the AMD AM27C64 datasheet.

Revision Status/History
FINAL
The Revision Status of the datasheet, as shown in the
center of the datasheet header bar, may be DRAFT,
PRELIMINARY, or FINAL, and refers to the status of the
Device (not the datasheet) within the design cycle. DRAFT
status is used when the design is being realized but is not
yet physically available, and the datasheet content
reflects the intention of the design. The datasheet is
raised to PRELIMINARY status when initial prototype
devices are physically available, and the datasheet
content more accurately represents the realization of the
design. The datasheet is only raised to FINAL status after
DATASHEET
the device has been fully characterized, and the
datasheet content updated with measured, rather than
simulated parameter values.
This is a FINAL release (Revision 2.00) of the ACS8509
datasheet. Changes made for this document revision are
given in Table 42, together with a brief summary of
previous revisions. For specific changes between earlier
revisions, refer (where available) to those earlier
revisions. Always use the current version of the datasheet.
