ICS9176C-03
Low Skew Output Buffer
General Description
The IC9176C-03 is designed specifically to support the
tight timing requirements of high-performance
microprocessors and chip sets. Because the jitter of the
device is limited to ±250ps, the ICS9176C-03 is ideal for
clocking Pentium™ systems. the 10 high drive (40mA), lowskew (±250ps) outputs make the ICS9176C-03 a perfect fit
for PCI clocking requirements.
The ICS9176C-03 has 10 outputs synchronized in phase and
frequency to an input clock. The internal phase locked loop
(PLL) acts either as 1X clock multiplier or a 1/2X clock
multiplier depending on the state of the input control pins T0
and T1. With metal mask options, any type of ratio between
the input clock and output clock can be achieved, including
2X.
The PLL maintains the phase frequency relationship between
the input clock and the outputs by externally feeding back
FBOUT to FBIN. Any change in the input will be tracked by
all 10 outputs. However, the change at the outputs will
happen smoothly so no glitches will be present on any driven
input. The PLL circuitry matches rising edges of the input
clock and the output clock. Since the input to FBIN skew is
guarenteed to ±500ps, the part acts as a "zero delay" buffer.
The ICS9176C-03 has a total of eleven ouputs. Of these,
FBOUT is dedicated as the feedback into the PLL and another,
Q/2, has an output frequency half that of the remaining nine.
These nine outputs can either by running at the same speed as
the input, or at half the frequency of the input. With Q/2 as
the feedback to FBIN, the nine 'Q' outputs will be running at
twice the input frequency in the normal divide-by-1 mode.
In this case, the output can go to 120 MHz with a 60 MHz
input clock. The maximum rise and fall time of an output is
14ns and each is TTL-compatible with a 40mA symmetric
drive.

The ICS9176C-03 is fabricated using CMOS technology
which results in much lower power consumption and cost
compared with the gallium arsenide based 1086E. The typical
operating current for the ICS9176C-03 is 60mA versus 115mA
for the GA1086E.

ICS9176C-03
Applications
FBOUT is normally connected to FBIN to facilitate input to
output skew control. However, there is no requirement that
the external feedback connection be a direct hardwire from an
output pin to the FBIN pin. As long as the signal at FBIN is
drived directly from the FBOUT pin and maintains its frequency,
additional delays can be accommodated. The clock phase of
the outputs (rising edge) will be adjusted so that the phase of
FBIN and ithe input clock will be the same. See Figure 1 for an
example.
The ICS9176C-03 is also ideal for clocking multi-processor
systems. The 10 outputs can be used to synchonize the
operation of CPU cache and memory banks operating at
different speeds. Figure 2 depicts a 2-CPU system in which
processors and associated periperals are operating at 66 MHz.
Each of the nine outputs operating at 66 MHz are fully utilized
to drive the appropriate CPU, cache and memory control logic.
The 33 MHz output is used to synchronize the operation of
the slower memory bank to restart of the system.
Figure 1
In Figure 1, the propagation delay through the divide by 2
circuit is eliminated. The internal phase-locked loop will adjust
the output clock on the ICS9176C-03 to ensure zero phase
delay between the FBIN and CLK signals, as a result, the
rising edge at the output of the divide by two circuit will be
aligned with the rising edge of the 66 MHz input clock. This
type of configuration can be used to eliminate propagation
delay as long as the signal at FBIN is continuous and is not
gated or conditional.
