PL60708X EMI Reduction Spread-spectrum modulation reduces the emission of spectral components in the clock signal. The spectrum plot on the right (Figure 1) shows measurement results with the two spread settings versus no spread. This plot refers to the 11th harmonic in a 100MHz clock, at 1.1GHz. The scale is normalized to the strength of this spur without spread. The plot shows about 21dB reduction for 0.25% spread magnitude and 24dB for 0.50% spread magnitude.

All phase noise measurements were taken with an Agilent 5052B phase noise system. 7. Defined as skew between outputs at the same supply voltage and with equal load conditions; measured at the output differential crossing points. 8. Measured using a 25MHz crystal as the input reference source. If using an external reference input, use a low phase noise source. With an external reference, the phase noise follows the input source phase noise up to about 1MHz. 9. The modulation rate is the crystal frequency divided by 792. 10. The typical modulation makes the output frequency sweep between the target frequency (0%) and the down-spread value (0.25% or 0.5%). There is process variation on the modulation magnitude; the smallest and largest possible modulation magnitude sweep ranges are listed in the Spread Spectrum Characteristics table.

PL60708X Application Information The impedance value of the ferrite bead (FB) must be between 240Ω and 600Ω with a saturation current ≥150mA. Crystal Layout Keep the layers under the crystal as open as possible and do not place switching signals or noisy supplies under the crystal. Crystal load capacitance is built inside the die so no external capacitance is needed. See the Selecting a Quartz Crystal for the Clockworks Flex Family of Precision Synthesizers application note for more details. The VDDO1 and VDDO2 pins connect directly to the VDD plane. All VDD pins on the PL60708X connect to VDD after the power supply filter. HCSL Outputs Terminate HCSL outputs with 50Ω to VSS. For best performance, load all outputs. If you want to AC-couple or change the termination, contact Micrel’s applications group at: [email protected] (see Figure 6). Contact Micrel’s HBW applications group at: [email protected] if you need help selecting a suitable crystal for your application Power Supply Decoupling Place the smallest value decoupling capacitor (4.7nF) between the VDD and VSS pins, as close as possible to those pins and at the same side of the PCB as the IC. The shorter the physical path from VDD to capacitor and back from capacitor to VSS, the more effective the decoupling. Use one 4.7nF capacitor for each VDD pin on the PL60708X.
