AV9172
Low Skew Output Buffer
General Description
Features
The AV9172 is designed to generate low skew clocks for
clock distribution in high-performance PCs and workstations.
It uses phase-locked loop technology to align the phase and
frequency of the output clocks with an input reference clock.
Because the input to output skew is guaranteed to ±500ps, the
part acts as a “zero delay” buffer.
•
The AV9172 has six configurable outputs. The AV9172-01
version has one output that runs at the same phase and
frequency as the reference clock. A second output runs at the
same frequency as the reference, but can either be in phase or
180° out of phase from the input clock. Two outputs are
provided that are at twice the reference frequency and in
phase with the reference clock. The final outputs can be
programmed to be replicas of the 2x clocks or non-overlapping
two phase clocks at twice the reference frequency. The
AV9172-01 and AV9172-03 operates with input clocks
from 10 MHz to 50 MHz while producing outputs from
10 MHz to 100 MHz. The AV9172-07 operates with input
clocks from 20 to 100 MHz.
The use of a phase-locked loop (PLL) allows the output
clocks to run at multiples of the input clock. This permits
routing of a lower speed clock and local generation of a
required high speed clock. Synchronization of the phase
relationship between the input clock and the output clocks is
accomplished when one output clock is connected to the
input pin FBIN. The PLL circuitry matches rising edges of the
input clock and output clocks.
AV9172-07 input is 66 MHz with 66 and 33 MHz
output buffers
• AV9172-01 is pin compatible with Gazelle GA1210E
• ±250ps skew (max) between outputs
• ±500ps skew (max) between input and outputs
• Input frequency range from 10 MHz to 50 MHz
(-01, -03) and from 20 MHz to 100 MHz (-07)
• Output frequency range from 10 MHz to 100 MHz
(-01, -03, -07)
• Special mode for two-phase clock generation
• Inputs and outputs are fully TTL-compatible
• CMOS process results in low power supply current
• High drive, 25mA outputs
• Low cost
• 16-pin SOIC (150-mil) or 16-pin PDIP package
The AV9172 is fabricated using CMOS technology which
results in much lower power consumption and cost compared
with the gallium arsenide-based GA1210E. The typical
operating current for the AV9172 is 50mA versus 120mA for
the GA1210E.
ICS offers several versions of the AV9172. The different

Notes:
1. 1X designates that the output is a replica of CLKIN.
2. 2X designates that the output is twice the frequency of
CLKIN, and in phase.
3. 1X# means that the output is at the same frequency and
180°C out of phase (inverted) from CLKIN.
4. Ø1 will produce a ¼ duty cycle clock of CLKIN.
5. Ø2 will produce a ¼ duty cycle clock delayed 180° from
CLKIN.

Note: The phase alignment between the 1X clock outputs and
reference clocks input will be either at a 0 or 180 degrees
offset if the 2X clock is used as the feedback signal (connected to the FBIN pin). Which relationship occurs is totally
random and has the potential to change any time the device has
its VDD supply cycled off or the devices input clock
removed.
