DS8615/DS8616 130/225 MHz Low Power Dual Modulus Prescalers General Description The DS8615 series products are low power dual modulus prescalers which divide by 32/33 and 40/41 respectively. The modulus control (MC) input selects division by N when at a high TTL level and division by N a 1 when at a low TTL level. The clock inputs are buffered, providing 40/100 mVrms input sensitivity. The two outputs provide the user the option to wire either a totem-pole or open-collector output structure. Additionally, the user can wire a resistor between the two output pins to minimize edge transition emissions. The outputs are designed to drive positive edge triggered PLLs. These products can be operated from either an unregulated 5.5V to 13.5V source or regulated 5V g 10% source. Unregulated operation is obtained by connecting VS to the source with VREG open. Regulated operation is obtained by connecting both VS and VREG to the supply source. The device can be used in phase-locked loop applications such as FM radio or other communications bands to prescale the input frequency down to a more usable level. A digital frequency display system can also be derived separately or in conjunction with a phase-locked loop, and it can extend the useful range of many inexpensive frequency counters to 225 MHz.

Note 5: See Timing Diagrams. Timing Diagram TL/F/5240 – 3 The logical state of the modulus control input just prior to the output’s rising edge will determine the modulus ratio of the device immediately following that rising edge. The pulse width difference of N and N a 1 operation occurs during the output e HI conditions.

The capacitor should be made larger for lower frequencies. The input waveform may be sinusoidal, but below about 20 MHz the operation of the circuit becomes dependent on the slew rate of the input rather than amplitude. A square wave input with a slew rate of greater than 20 V/ms will permit correct operation down to lower frequencies, provided the proper input coupling capacitor is provided. For regulated mode operation connect VS to VREG to ensure proper operation (see Typical Application diagram). OPERATING NOTES The signal source is usually capacitively coupled to the input. At higher frequencies a 0.001 mF input capacitor (C1) is usually sufficient, with larger values used at the lower frequencies. If the input signal is likely to be interrupted, it may be desirable to connect a 100 kX resistor between one input and ground to stabilize the device. In the single-ended mode, it is preferable to connect the resistor to the unused input. In the differential mode, the resistor can be connected to either input. The addition of the 100 kX pulldown resistor causes a loss of input sensitivity, but prevents circuit oscillations under no signal (open circuit) conditions.
