PRELIMINARY
3.3V Programmable Skew Clock Buffer
Features
Functional Description
• All output pair skew <100 ps (typical)
The CY7C9915 RoboClock is a 150-MHz Low-voltage
Programmable Skew Clock Buffer that offers user-selectable
control over system clock functions. This multiple-output clock
driver provides the system integrator with functions necessary
to optimize the timing of high-performance computer systems.
Eight individual drivers, arranged as four pairs of user-controllable outputs, can each drive terminated transmission lines
with impedances as low as 50Ω while delivering minimal and
specified output skews and full-swing logic levels (LVTTL).
• Input Frequency Range: 3.75 MHz to 150 MHz
• Output Frequency Range: 3.75 MHz to 150 MHz
• User-selectable output functions
— Selectable skew to 18 ns
— Inverted and non-inverted
— Operation at 1⁄2 and 1⁄4 input frequency
— Operation at 2x and 4x input frequency (input as low
as 3.75 MHz)
• Zero input-to-output delay
• 3.3V power supply
• ± 3.0% Output Duty Cycle Distortion
• LVTTL outputs drive 50Ω terminated lines
• Low operating current
Each output can be hardwired to one of nine delay or function
configurations. Delay increments of 0.42 to 1.6 ns are determined by the operating frequency with outputs able to skew up
to ±6 time units from their nominal “zero” skew position. The
completely integrated PLL allows external load and transmission line delay effects to be canceled. When this “zero
delay” capability of the LVPSCB is combined with the
selectable output skew functions, the user can create
output-to-output delays of up to ±12 time units.
Divide-by-two and divide-by-four output functions are provided
for additional flexibility in designing complex clock systems.
When combined with the internal PLL, these divide functions
allow distribution of a low-frequency clock that can be multiplied by two or four at the clock destination. This facility
minimizes clock distribution difficulty while allowing maximum
system clock speed and flexibility.

Block Diagram Description
Phase Frequency Detector and Filter
These two blocks accept inputs from the Reference Frequency
(REF) input and the Feedback (FB) input and generate
correction information to control the frequency of the
Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO). These blocks, along with
the VCO, form a Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) that tracks the
incoming REF signal.
VCO and Time Unit Generator
The VCO accepts analog control inputs from the PLL filter
block and generates a frequency that is used by the time unit
generator to create discrete time units that are selected in the
skew select matrix. The operational range of the VCO is determined by the FS control pin. The time unit (tU) is determined
by the operating frequency of the device and the level of the
FS pin as shown in Table 1.

Skew Select Matrix
The skew select matrix is comprised of four independent
sections. Each section has two low-skew, high-fanout drivers
(xQ0, xQ1), and two corresponding three-level function select
(xF0, xF1) inputs. Table 2 below shows the nine possible
output functions for each section as determined by the function
select inputs. All times are measured with respect to the REF
input assuming that the output connected to the FB input has
0tU selected.
Notes:
1. For all three-state inputs, HIGH indicates a connection to VCC, LOW indicates a connection to GND, and MID indicates an open connection. Internal termination
circuitry holds an unconnected input to VCC/2.
2. The level to be set on FS is determined by the “normal” operating frequency (fNOM) of the VCO and Time Unit Generator (see Logic Block Diagram). Nominal
frequency (fNOM) always appears at 1Q0 and the other outputs when they are operated in their undivided modes (see Table 2). The frequency appearing at the
REF and FB inputs will be fNOM when the output connected to FB is undivided. The frequency of the REF and FB inputs will be fNOM/2 or fNOM/4 when the part
is configured for a frequency multiplication by using a divided output as the FB input.

Figure 1. Typical Outputs with FB Connected to a Zero-Skew Output[3]
Test Mode
The TEST input is a three-level input. In normal system
operation, this pin is connected to ground, allowing the
CY7C9915 to operate as explained briefly above (for testing
purposes, any of the three-level inputs can have a removable
jumper to ground, or be tied LOW through a 100Ω resistor.
This will allow an external tester to change the state of these
pins.)
If the TEST input is forced to its MID or HIGH state, the device
will operate with its internal phase locked loop disconnected,
and input levels supplied to REF will directly control all outputs.
Relative output to output functions are the same as in normal
mode.
In contrast with normal operation (TEST tied LOW). All outputs
will function based only on the connection of their own function
select inputs (xF0 and xF1) and the waveform characteristics
of the REF input.
Note:
3. FB connected to an output selected for “zero” skew (i.e., xF1 = xF0 = MID).

Figure 2. Zero-Skew and/or Zero-Delay Clock Driver
Figure 2 shows the LVPSCB configured as a zero-skew clock
buffer. In this mode the CY7C9915 can be used as the basis
for a low-skew clock distribution tree. When all of the function
select inputs (xF0, xF1) are left open, the outputs are aligned
and may each drive a terminated transmission line to an
independent load. The FB input can be tied to any output in
this configuration and the operating frequency range is
selected with the FS pin. The low-skew specification, coupled
with the ability to drive terminated transmission lines (with
impedances as low as 50Ω), allows efficient printed circuit
board design.

Figure 3. Programmable-Skew Clock Driver
Figure 3 shows a configuration to equalize skew between
metal traces of different lengths. In addition to low skew
between outputs, the LVPSCB can be programmed to stagger
the timing of its outputs. The four groups of output pairs can
each be programmed to different output timing. Skew timing
can be adjusted over a wide range in small increments with the
appropriate strapping of the function select pins. In this configuration the 4Q0 output is fed back to FB and configured for
zero skew. The other three pairs of outputs are programmed
to yield different skews relative to the feedback. By advancing
the clock signal on the longer traces or retarding the clock
signal on shorter traces, all loads can receive the clock pulse
Document #: 38-07687 Rev. *A
at the same time.
In this illustration the FB input is connected to an output with
0-ns skew (xF1, xF0 = MID) selected. The internal PLL
synchronizes the FB and REF inputs and aligns their rising
edges to insure that all outputs have precise phase alignment.
Clock skews can be advanced by ±6 time units (tU) when using
an output selected for zero skew as the feedback. A wider
range of delays is possible if the output connected to FB is also
skewed. Since “Zero Skew”, +tU, and –tU are defined relative
to output groups, and since the PLL aligns the rising edges of
REF and FB, it is possible to create wider output skews by

proper selection of the xFn inputs. For example a +10 tU
between REF and 3Qx can be achieved by connecting 1Q0 to
FB and setting 1F0 = 1F1 = GND, 3F0 = MID, and 3F1 = High.
(Since FB aligns at –4 tU and 3Qx skews to +6 tU, a total of
+10 tU skew is realized.) Many other configurations can be
realized by skewing both the output used as the FB input and
skewing the other outputs.
REF
1Qx and 2Qx outputs run at 80 MHz. The 4Q0 and 4Q1
outputs are programmed to divide by two, which results in a
40-MHz waveform at these outputs. Note that the 20- and
40-MHz clocks fall simultaneously and are out of phase on
their rising edge. This will allow the designer to use the rising
edges of the 1⁄2 frequency and 1⁄4 frequency outputs without
concern for rising-edge skew. The 2Q0, 2Q1, 1Q0, and 1Q1
outputs run at 80 MHz and are skewed by programming their
select inputs accordingly. Note that the FS pin is wired for
80-MHz operation because that is the frequency of the fastest
output.

Figure 4. Inverted Output Connections
Figure 4 shows an example of the invert function of the
LVPSCB. In this example the 4Q0 output used as the FB input
is programmed for invert (4F0 = 4F1 = HIGH) while the other
three pairs of outputs are programmed for zero skew. When
4F0 and 4F1 are tied HIGH, 4Q0 and 4Q1 become inverted
zero phase outputs. The PLL aligns the rising edge of the FB
input with the rising edge of the REF. This causes the 1Q, 2Q,
and 3Q outputs to become the “inverted” outputs with respect
to the REF input. By selecting which output is connect to FB,
it is possible to have 2 inverted and 6 non-inverted outputs or
6 inverted and 2 non-inverted outputs. The correct configuration would be determined by the need for more (or fewer)
inverted outputs. 1Q, 2Q, and 3Q outputs can also be skewed
to compensate for varying trace delays independent of
inversion on 4Q.

Figure 5. Frequency Multiplier with Skew Connections
Figure 5 illustrates the LVPSCB configured as a clock multiplier. The 3Q0 output is programmed to divide by four and is
fed back to FB. This causes the PLL to increase its frequency
until the 3Q0 and 3Q1 outputs are locked at 20 MHz while the

Figure 6. Frequency Divider Connections
Figure 6 demonstrates the LVPSCB in a clock divider application. 2Q0 is fed back to the FB input and programmed for
zero skew. 3Qx is programmed to divide by four. 4Qx is
programmed to divide by two. Note that the falling edges of the
4Qx and 3Qx outputs are aligned. This allows use of the rising
edges of the 1⁄2 frequency and 1⁄4 frequency without concern
for skew mismatch. The 1Qx outputs are programmed to zero
skew and are aligned with the 2Qx outputs. In this example,
the FS input is grounded to configure the device in the 15- to
30-MHz range since the highest frequency output is running at
20 MHz.
Figure 7 shows some of the functions that are selectable on
the 3Qx and 4Qx outputs. These include inverted outputs and
outputs that offer divide-by-2 and divide-by-4 timing. An
inverted output allows the system designer to clock different
subsystems on opposite edges, without suffering from the
pulse asymmetry typical of non-ideal loading. This function
allows the two subsystems to each be clocked 180 degrees
out of phase, but still to be aligned within the skew spec.
The divided outputs offer a zero-delay divider for portions of
the system that need the clock to be divided by either two or
four, and still remain within a narrow skew of the “1X” clock.
Without this feature, an external divider would need to be
added, and the propagation delay of the divider would add to
the skew between the different clock signals.
These divided outputs, coupled with the Phase Locked Loop,
allow the LVPSCB to multiply the clock rate at the REF input
by either two or four. This mode will enable the designer to
distribute a low-frequency clock between various portions of
the system, and then locally multiply the clock rate to a more
suitable frequency, while still maintaining the low-skew characteristics of the clock driver. The LVPSCB can perform all of the
functions described above at the same time. It can multiply by

Cascaded clock buffers will accumulate low-frequency jitter
because of the non-ideal filtering characteristics of the PLL
filter. It is recommended that not more than two clock buffers
be connected in series.

Notes:
7. These inputs are normally wired to VCC, GND, or left unconnected (actual threshold voltages vary as a percentage of VCC). Internal termination resistors hold
unconnected inputs at VCC/2. If these inputs are switched, the function and timing of the outputs may glitch and the PLL may require an additional tLOCK time
before all data sheet limits are achieved.
8. CY7C9915 should be tested one output at a time, output shorted for less than one second, less than 10% duty cycle. Room temperature only.
9. Total output current per output pair can be approximated by the following expression that includes device current plus load current:
CY7C9915:ICCN = [(4 + 0.11F) + [[((835 –3F)/Z) + (.0022FC)]N] x 1.1
Where
F = frequency in MHz
C = capacitive load in pF
Z = line impedance in ohms
N = number of loaded outputs; 0, 1, or 2
FC = F ∗ C
10. Total power dissipation per output pair can be approximated by the following expression that includes device power dissipation plus power dissipation due to the
load circuit:
PD = [(22 + 0.61F) + [[(1550 + 2.7F)/Z) + (.0125FC)]N] x 1.1
See note 9 for variable definition.
11. The minimum input clock pulse (HIGH or LOW) is the greater of the two parameters. Therefore, below 50MHz the limit is 10%; above 50MHz the limit is 2ns.
12. In test mode, Max REF input frequency is 133MHz.

Notes:
13. Test measurement levels for the CY7C9915 are TTL levels (1.5V to 1.5V). Test conditions assume signal transition times of 2 ns or less and output loading as shown
in the AC Test Loads and Waveforms unless otherwise specified.
14. SKEW is defined as the time between the earliest and the latest output transition among all outputs for which the same tU delay has been selected when all are
loaded with 30 pF and terminated with TTL AC Test Load.
15. Guaranteed by statistical correlation. Tested initially and after any design or process changes that may affect these parameters.
16. tSKEWPR is defined as the skew between a pair of outputs (XQ0 and XQ1) when all eight outputs are selected for 0tU.
17. tSKEW0 is defined as the skew between all outputs when they are selected for 0tU. Other outputs are divided or inverted but not shifted.
18. CL=0 pF. For CL=30 pF, tSKEW0=0.35 ns.
19. There are three classes of outputs: Nominal (multiple of tU delay), Inverted (4Q0 and 4Q1 only with 4F0 = 4F1 = HIGH), and Divided (3Qx and 4Qx only in Divide-by-2
or Divide-by-4 mode).
20. tDEV is the output-to-output skew between the same outputs of any two devices operating under the same conditions (VCC ambient temperature, air flow, etc.)
21. tODC is measure at VCCN/2.
22. Specified with outputs loaded with 30 pF. tORISE and tOFALL measured between 0.8V and 2.0V.
23. tLOCK is the time that is required before synchronization is achieved. This specification is valid only after VCC is stable and within normal operating limits. This parameter is
measured from the application of a new signal or frequency at REF or FB until tPD is within specified limits.
