IDT ICS524

DATASHEET
ICS524
LOW SKEW 1 TO 4 CLOCK BUFFER
Description
Features
The ICS524 is a low skew, single input to four output, clock
buffer. Part of ICS’ ClockBlocksTM family, this is our lowest
skew, small clock buffer.

See the ICS552-02 for a 1 to 8 low skew buffer. For more
than eight outputs, see the MK74CBxxx BuffaloTM series of
clock drivers.
ICS makes many non-PLL and PLL based low skew output
devices as well as Zero Delay Buffers to synchronize
clocks. Contact us for all of your clocking needs.

External Components
A minimum number of external components are required for proper operation. A decoupling capacitor of 0.01 µF
should be connected between VDD on pin 5 and GND on pin 8, as close to the device as possible. A 33 Ω series
terminating resistor may be used on each clock output if the trace is longer than 1 inch.
To achieve the low output skew that the ICS524 is capable of, careful attention must be paid to board layout.
Essentially, all four outputs must have identical terminations, identical loads and identical trace geometries. If they
do not, the output skew will be degraded. For example, using a 30Ω series termination on one output (with 33Ω on
the others) will cause at least 15 ps of skew.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the ICS524. These ratings, which are
standard values for ICS commercially rated parts, are stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device at
these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied.
Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods can affect product reliability. Electrical
parameters are guaranteed only over the recommended operating temperature range.
