DS31400
8-Input, 14-Output, Dual DPLL Timing IC
with Sub-ps Output Jitter
General Description
The DS31400 is a flexible, high-performance timing IC
for diverse frequency conversion and frequency
synthesis applications. On each of its eight input clocks
and 14 output clocks, the device can accept or generate
nearly any frequency between 2kHz and 750MHz. The
device offers two independent DPLLs to serve two
independent clock-generation paths.
The input clocks are divided down, fractionally scaled as
needed, and continuously monitored for activity and
frequency accuracy. The best input clock is selected,
manually or automatically, as the reference clock for
each of the two flexible, high-performance digital PLLs.
Each DPLL lock to the selected reference and provides
programmable bandwidth, very high-resolution holdover
capability and truly hitless switching between input
clocks. The digital PLLs are followed by a clock
synthesis subsystem, which has seven fully
programmable digital frequency synthesis blocks, three
high-speed low-jitter APLLs, and 14 output clocks, each
with its own 32-bit divider and phase adjustment. The
APLLs provide fractional scaling and output jitter less
than 1ps RMS.
For telecom systems, the device has all required
features and functions to serve as a central timing
function or as a line card timing IC. With a suitable
oscillator the DS31400 meets the requirements of
Stratum 2, 3E, 3, 4E and 4; G.812 Types I–IV; G.813;
and G.8262.
