Control & Monitoring
The ZL™30410 is a digital phase locked loop (DPLL) ideal for
Synchronous Optical Network (SONET), Synchronous Digital
Hierarchy (SDH) and T1/E1 line cards.
The ZL30410 is based on an enhanced DPLL architecture
that ensures an efficient route to compliance with international
synchronization standards. Featuring industry-leading jitter
performance, reference out of range detection, and excellent
holdover accuracy, the ZL30410 ensures reliable line card
clocks even in the presence of jitter, wander and interruptions
to the reference signal.
The new DPLL is a standard, IC-based solution that eliminates
requirements for external loop filter components and reduces
board space, cost and complexity compared to traditional
DSP-based or module solutions.
Applications
Line card synchronization for SDH, SONET, DS3, E3, J2
(DS2), E1 and DS1 interfaces
Timing card synchronization for SDH Option 1 and PDH
Network Elements
Clock generation for ST-BUS and GCI timing

Industry-leading digital PLL jitter performance of 325ps on
155.52MHz clock allows a direct interface to
STM-1/OC-3 framers and mappers.
Very low MTIE after hitless reference switching between
references with different frequencies.
Automatic reference out of range detection continuously
monitors timing references, and alarms if frequency error
exceeds 12ppm.
Holdover accuracy of 0.07ppb (10-9) ensures precise
timing when the network reference is down.
Flexible for Multiple System Requirements
Supports free-run, normal (locked) or holdover modes.
Selectable loop filter corner frequency supports line card
(12Hz) and SDH Option 1 timing card (6Hz) applications.
STM-1, OC-3, DS3, E3, 19.44MHz, DS2, E1, DS1, 8kHz
and TDM bus clock outputs to 16.384MHz.
Accepts reference inputs from two independent sources
and synchronizes to any combination of 8kHz, 1.544MHz,
2.048MHz and 19.44MHz.
Simplifies Line Card Design
Hardware interface control and status pins allow the
device to operate without a dedicated microprocessor
interface.
External oscillator enhances flexibility with choice of size,
source, quality and cost.

MULTI-SERVICE LINE CARD PLL
VOICE / DATA
SONET and SDH are the leading transport technologies for
high-speed networks, offering versatility, reliability and the
ability to support synchronous and asynchronous traffic.
Synchronization of network elements in the SONET/SDH
infrastructure is critical to system performance.
The ZL30410 further improves synchronization with reference
out of range detection, which allows the device to verify the
accuracy of reference signals, and reject references exceeding 12ppm.
As shown below, the ZL30410 synchronizes line cards in compliance with the ITU-T G.813 Option 1 and Option 2, and the
Telcordia GR-253-CORE specifications. Paired with a 20MHz
clock oscillator, the ZL30410 provides line card clocks that
support all of the stability requirements for wander, phase
transient control and holdover.
Achieving the industry’s best digital PLL jitter performance,
the ZL30410 can directly drive jitter-sensitive STM-1 and
OC-3 components. It also provides clocks and framing pulses
required by commonly used STM-1, OC3 and T1/E1 framers
and mappers. This eliminates requirements for a companion
analog PLL or clock dividers, as well as external loop filters,
thereby reducing cost, board space and complexity.
The DPLL enables hitless reference switching between references of different frequencies, and provides Stratum 3E
holdover accuracy of 0.07ppb. This allows network equipment
to continue to send and receive data even when the source of
network synchronization is interrupted or changed.
The ZL30410 can also serve as the main timing card DPLL
in SDH Option 1 and T1/E1 stratum 4 or 4E systems.
Equipped with hardware interface control and status pins,
the device is able to operate in all modes without a dedicated microprocessor.
