Feature Description
The ACS1823 low-jitter dual frequency synthesizer can generate up to four individually programmable clock outputs
from a crystal oscillator interface using either a fundamental or 3rd Overtone crystal. The oscillator port also provides
an option to use temperature compensated OCXO/TCXO reference clocks for applications requiring long term
frequency stability.
The dual PLLs offer great flexibility and eliminate the need for two PLL chips to support two different standards. For
example, one PLL could be used for Ethernet Clocks (25 MHz, 125 MHz, 156.25 MHz) and the other PLL could be
used to generate a W-CDMA reference frequency such as 30.72 MHz.
Besides supporting free running or fixed frequency synthesis in asynchronous systems such as Ethernet, the
ACS1823 can also serve as a low phase noise, software controlled frequency synthesizer or Numerically Controlled
Oscillator (NCO) forming part of a larger system loop. In this case, the I2C/SPI serial interface allows microprocessor
control of the APLL 34-bit fractional feedback divider in very small steps to steer the output frequency.
Alternatively, if an analog control loop is desired, the ACS1823 may be driven by an upstream VCXO that is steered
by a control voltage. The ACS1823 will track the VCXO frequency while generating low phase noise output clocks.
An integrated high PSRR voltage regulator simplifies power integrity and requires VDD = 3.3V.

Theory of Operation
Analog Phase Locked Loop operation (APLL)
The ACS1823 contains a pair of independent APLL slices, with each slice consisting of a Voltage Controlled
Oscillator (VCO), fractional Feedback Divider (AFB), a Phase and Frequency Detector (APFD) and a high-speed Output
Divider (ODIV).
The VCO has an operational range of 2.15 GHz – 2.80 GHz and is locked to the specified multiple of the device’s
reference clock by the AFB and APFD. When locked, the high-speed ODIV divider is used to pre-scale the VCO output
prior to driving the lower speed output clock dividers (OUTnH and OUTnL).
When using the device as a “software controlled synthesizer” or NCO, frequency adjustment is achieved by using
either I2C or SPI commands to modify the integer and fractional portions of the fractional feedback divider.
For ease of configuration, the “CleanClock” software tool is may be used to calculate coefficient register values
based on reference frequency, output frequency and target VCO rate. The tool automatically configures all divider
ratios and assigns the relevant frequency plan. When using the associated evaluation board, this graphical user
interface allows users to continually monitor device status on a USB connected windows based PC.
The theory of operation descriptions below are intended to illustrate device functionality as device settings do not
need to be manually calculated.

Table 2: ACS1823 Reference Clock Configuration
Two basic modes of operation are supported by the PLL:
1) Software Controlled Synthesizer mode:
For optimal performance when the I2C/SPI port is used to remotely adjust the AFB divider ratio, the
reference XTALA/XTALB frequency should ideally be chosen to create a fractional ratio with the target output
frequency on CLKOUT.
2) Fixed Frequency Synthesizer mode:
When used to simply multiply the reference oscillator by a static ratio, best jitter performance is achieved
when the APLL is operated in integer only mode which requires the VCO frequency to be an exact integer
multiple of the reference oscillator connected to XTALA/XTALB. If this is not possible, it is recommended to
select a crystal oscillator that is not near a multiple or sub-multiple of the output frequency on CLKOUT.
XO Doubler Circuit
For optimal performance, it is recommended to operate the APFD above 60MHz. This may be achieved either by
using a reference oscillator above 60MHz, or (for lower rate frequencies) enabling the on chip XO Doubler Circuit
which multiplies the XTALA/XTALB rate by a factor of two.
For XTALA/XTALB rates below 30MHz output jitter will increase due to the APFD frequency dropping below 60MHz.
If the input reference frequency is above 60 MHz, the XO Doubler feature should not be used.

Interfacing an external reference source on XTALA and XTALB
A high quality sinusoidal external reference clock can be used in place of the crystal at XTAL/XTALB. The figure below
provides examples of single ended and differential interfaces to the XTALA/XTALB inputs. Note that the output jitter
performance depends on the quality and frequency of the VCO reference clock. Jitter generation specifications in
the AC-Characteristics Table are given for a crystal chosen with attention to spur frequencies. Use of an external
clock instead of a crystal may impact the total output jitter.

Divider Configuration
Frequency synthesis in the APLL Slice is configured by setting appropriate division rates in the various frequency

Figure 4 : APLL Slice Block Diagram
Each APLL slice has an AFB feedback divider with integer and fractional components and a high speed ODIV output
divider. Each of the four device outputs can select the output from either slice and divide it through a two-stage
divider to generate the final output frequency. This mechanism allows multiple different, but related, frequencies to
be generated by a single slice. In the following discussion on frequency selection, the slice-specific and outputspecific dividers are considered together.

DATASHEET
Software Controlled Synthesizer Mode
When using the ACS1823 in software controlled NCO synthesizer mode, the output frequency is steered by
modifying the AFB feedback divider to adjust the frequency ratio between VCO and the XTALA/XTALB reference
oscillator. The 34 bit fractional 𝐴𝐹𝐵𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑐 divider allows this ratio to be controlled with a worst case tuning resolution
of 3.5 parts per trillion (ppt). To protect against partial or incomplete frequency update, both 𝐴𝐹𝐵𝐼𝑛𝑡 and 𝐴𝐹𝐵𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑐
dividers need to be written before the new ratio is transferred to the APLL. Register update only occurs when the
𝐴𝐹𝐵𝐼𝑛𝑡 MSB byte is written in the register map.
NCO tuning resolution is dependent on the ratio between 𝑓𝑥𝑡𝑎𝑙 and 𝑓𝑣𝑐𝑜 . It may be estimated by the following simple
relationship which ignores the effects of fixed point arithmetic.
𝑆𝑢 =
𝑓𝑥𝑡𝑎𝑙 ∗ 𝑋𝑂𝐷𝑏𝑙
𝑓𝑣𝑐𝑜 ∗ 234
Example
Using the following device configuration the NCO tuning resolution may be quickly estimated by:
𝑆𝑢 =

= 1.4 𝑝𝑝𝑡

Where:𝑓𝑥𝑡𝑎𝑙
𝑋𝑂𝑑𝑏𝑙
=

In practice, the NCO tuning resolution is dependent on the rounding affects introduced by the fixed point dividers,
and may be found by calculating the VCO frequency change caused by incrementing the 𝐴𝐹𝐵𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑐 divider.
For the 𝑋𝑂𝑑𝑏𝑙 , 𝑓𝑥𝑡𝑎𝑙 and 𝑓𝑣𝑐𝑜 rates listed above, the ideal AFB feedback divider ratio would be
𝐴𝐹𝐵𝑖𝑛𝑡
𝐴𝐹𝐵𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑐
=

40 (dec)
0.6901041666667 (dec)
First step is to determine the required value ‘x’ to be written into the 𝐴𝐹𝐵𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑐 register:
𝑥 = 𝐴𝐹𝐵𝐹𝑟𝑎𝑐 ∗ 234
hence:
𝑥 = 0.6901041666667 ∗ 234
= 11,855,899,307 (dec)
(Rounded to nearest integer)
= 0𝑥2_𝐶2𝐴𝐴_𝐴𝐴𝐴𝐵
(34 bit hexadecimal)
This gives an actual VCO frequency of: 𝑓 = 2,500,000,000.00119 Hz
Now increment the 𝐴𝐹𝐵𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑐 divider
x + 1 = 0𝑥2_𝐶2𝐴𝐴_𝐴𝐴𝐴𝐶 (hex)

𝐴𝐹𝐵𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑐 =

Then:
DATASHEET
= 0.690104166724
This gives a revised VCO frequency of: 𝑓𝑉𝐶𝑂 = 2,500,000,000.00477 Hz
For the configuration used in this example, an increase of 1 LSB in the 𝐴𝐹𝐵𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑐 value increases the fVCO frequency
by 0.00358Hz or 1.43 ppt
VCO Operation
The APLL contains a fully integrated Voltage Controlled Oscillator with an allowed range of 2.15 GHz to 2.8 GHz. The
VCO circuit integrates all required filter and charge pump components avoiding the need for external components.
Following initial Divider configuration, the VCO calibration circuit must be activated to lock the APLL to the reference
oscillator. Calibration ensures the optimum VCO operating setup and is performed automatically at power-up and
reset.
Once calibrated the VCO may be pulled by +/- 500ppm without the requirement to re-calibrate.
When using both APLL slices optimum jitter performance is attained when the VCO frequencies are a minimum of 50
MHz apart.
Factory Pre-configuration
If desired, the ACS1823 can be factory pre-configured with default register settings, reducing the configuration
necessary by the local CPU. In this mode, the customer can provide Semtech with the required device setting and a
unique part number will be assigned for that configuration.
CNFG
[1:0]
To support multiple applications with a single custom part number, up to four completely independent
configurations can be pre-programmed. The particular configuration to use is determined by the state of the
CNFG[1:0] pins at reset. Table 3 shows the pin settings for selecting a particular pre-programmed configuration.

CLKOUT Divider Paths
Each output path has a multiplexer at the beginning of the divider chain allowing source selection from either APLL.
Although there is no restriction on APLL selection, optimum jitter performance is achieved when the odd clock paths
(CLKOUT1 & CLKOUT3) are driven from slice A and the even clock paths (CLKOUT2 & CLKOUT4) are driven from
slice B.
CLKOUT Drivers
Universal drivers are used to drive the CLKOUT signal. These highly flexible drivers can be configured to match
LVPECL, CML, LVDS or LVCMOS interconnection standards. Options exist to enable on chip termination (100 ohm or
50 ohm) for driving differential signal schemes. Note that the use of on chip termination will increase current
consumption.
For systems that require signal conditioning to prevent unwanted reflections or fast rising edges, options exist to
allow the output clock signals to be slew rate limited. For CMOS mode, a range of driver strengths is provided
allowing the output current to be optimized depending on load conditions
Buffered Reference Oscillator Path
For applications that require a buffered version of the reference XTALA/XTALB oscillator an APLL bypass mode is
available in register 0x029 for CLKOUT3 that provides access to the XTALA/XTALB frequency via the universal output
driver.

The device contains an internal power on reset watchdog circuit and crystal oscillator envelope detector. Both
circuits are activated during the power up sequence and require the following conditions to be met before
commencing startup:1) VDD Rail exceeds 2.25V
2) Voltage level on RESETB exceeds 0.7 * VDD
3) XTALA/XTALB oscillator has an amplitude in excess of 500mVpp
Once these qualification conditions are met, the device will commence startup.
Startup sequence
Once the qualification criterions are met the startup sequence will begin. Once started, the sequence will complete
within 500ms.

DATASHEET
Two-wire (I2C) microprocessor interface
When Pin I2C_SPI = Low, ACS1823 supports Fast Mode (400 kHz clock) two-wire (I2C) communication. In I2C mode,
bidirectional serial data is communicated on SDA and the serial clock on SCL. Consistent with normal practice for
the I2C interface, SDA and SCL must normally be provided with appropriate external pull-up resistors to VDD for
proper operation (I2C is an open drain interface). The three LSBs of the internal I2C slave address are set by the pins
ADD2, ADD1 and ADD0, making the I2C interface address 1101(ADD2)(ADD1)(ADD0)(R/W).
The format for an I2C write to ACS1823 is:
S
Slave Addr
O
A
Byte Addr
A
Data

P
The format for an I2C read command is:

Data

Data

P
Where S indicates the I2C ‘start’ condition, A indicates the I2C ‘acknowledge’ condition and P indicates the I2C ‘stop’
condition; ACS1823 supports multiple data word read and writer operations.
Four-wire (SPI) serial microprocessor interface
When Pin I2C_SPI = High, ACS1823 supports four-wire Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) communication. In SPI mode,
serial data is input on SDI, serial data is output on SDO, serial clock is input on SCLK and slave select is input on SS;
the maximum clock rate in SPI mode is one quarter of the oscillator frequency, after optional internal frequency
doubling. When operated in SPI mode, external pull up resistors should not be used (SPI is not an open drain
interface).
SPI configuration is defined in the register map at address 0x004.
The SPI protocol consists of a read/write bit, 7 bits of address and 1 or more bytes of data. The interface provided
on ACS1823 supports many configurable variations, including




clock polarity: (CPOL in conventional SPI)
o CPOL=0, the clock is normally low
o CPOL=1, the clock is normally high (default)
clock edge selection: (CPHA)
o CPHA=CPOL, data is captured on the rising edge, propagated on the falling edge of SCK (default)
o CPHA=!CPOL, data is captured on falling edge, propagated on rising edge of SCK
endianness: (BITORDER)
o BITORDER = 0, lsb-first
o BITORDER = 1, msb-first (default)
RW bit: (RWBIT_POS)
o RWBIT_POS = 0, RW bit at beginning of address field. (default)
o RWBIT_POS = 1, RW bit at end of address field
An example default mode of SPI write and read operations are shown in the following diagrams, showing only 8 bit
accesses.

SDA_SDO is tristated while ADD2_SS is inactive (high) to allow multi-slave operation with shared signaling.
Note that the data driven out on SDA_SDO is a copy of the signaling driven in on SDI during the previous cycle. This
can be used by the host to raise confidence that the previous access was successful. The data portion of a read
access is the exception of course, as the data being driven out is the read data itself.
Multi-byte accesses
Multi-byte accesses are also supported by continuing the data byte field while ADD2_SS is held low

Register Map Paging and Addressing (I2C / SPI)
The ACS1823 addressing range is split into pages to accommodate substantially more than the 128 registers
supported by an unpaged 7 bit addressing scheme.
The page register used by ACS1823 resides at address 0x000.
For example register addresses within the range 0x001 – 0x07f (Page 0) require the page register to be programed
0x00 which is the default value following power up or reset. To access register addresses within the range 0x080 –
0x0FF the page register must be written to hold 0x01. Once programmed all subsequent I2C/SPI physical
addresses will be offset to access Page 1.
Care must be taken when using auto increment mode for multi-byte register access to avoid inadvertent crossing of
page boundaries.

High speed input and output interfaces
The internal configuration of the high speed differential CLKINn input includes weak on-chip termination which sets
the common mode when AC-coupling is used; external dual 50Ω single ended or 100Ω differential termination must
be provided near the chip inputs for proper operation
Figure 13 : High Speed Input Configuration
The ACS1823 CLKOUTn output ports may be internally configured to drive CML, LVDS and LVPECL termination
schemes. Common mode output voltage is determined by the interface mode and selection of VDD. Both the
CLKINn+ and CLKOUTn+ interfaces may also be configured for single ended LVCMOS operation (up to 250MHz), with
the corresponding CLKINn- and CLKOUTn- pins unused.

The CLKOUTn outputs can be individually disabled (squelched) using the serial control interface. When disabled, the
output drivers are disconnected from VDD and the output dividers and output driver current sources are disabled to
conserve power

Revision History
The Revision Status, as shown in top right corner of the datasheet, may be TARGET, PRELIMINARY, or FINAL, and
refers to the status of the Device (not the datasheet), with the design cycle. TARGET status is used when the design
is being realized but is not yet physically available, and the datasheet content reflects the intention of the design.
The datasheet is raised to PRELIMINARY status when initial prototype devices are physically available, and the
datasheet content more accurately represents the realization of the design. The datasheet is only raised to FINAL
status after the device has been fully characterized, and the datasheet content updated with measured, rather than
simulated parameter values.
