PIN DESCRIPTIONS INPUTS OUTPUTS XTAL1, XTAL2 These pins form an oscillator when connected to an external crystal. The crystal is series resonant. Alternatively, these pins can be driven with 100K PECL level by an external source. FOUT, FOUT These differential positive-referenced ECL signals (PECL) are the output of the synthesizer. TEST The function of this TTL output is determined by the serial configuration bits T[2:0]. S_LOAD This TTL pin loads the configuration latches with the contents of the shift registers. The latches will be transparent when this signal is HIGH; thus, the register data must be stable on the HIGH-to-LOW transition of S_LOAD for proper operation. POWER VCC1 This is the positive supply for the chip and is normally connected to +5.0V. S_DATA This TTL pin is the input to the serial configuration shift registers. VCC_OUT This is the positive reference for the PECL outputs, FOUT and FOUT. It is constrained to be less than or equal to VCC1. S_CLOCK This TTL pin clocks the serial configuration shift registers. On the rising edge of this signal, data from S_DATA is sampled. VCC_QUIET This is the positive supply for the PLL and should be as noisefree as possible for low-jitter operation. P_LOAD This TTL pin loads the configuration latches with the contents of the parallel inputs. The latches will be transparent when this signal is LOW; thus, the parallel data must be stable on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of P_LOAD for proper operation. GND These pins are the negative supply for the chip and are normally all connected to ground. M[8:0] These TTL pins are used to configure the PLL loop divider. They are sampled on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of P_LOAD. M[8] is the MSB, M[0] is the LSB. The binary count on the M pins equates to the divide-by value for the PLL. OTHER LOOP_FILTER This is an analog I/O pin that provides the loop filter for the PLL. N[1:0] LOOP_REF This is an analog I/O pin that provides a reference voltage for the PLL. These TTL pins are used to configure the output divider modulus. They are sampled on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of P_LOAD.

Exposure to ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATlNG conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The internal oscillator uses the external quartz crystal as the basis of its frequency reference. The output of the reference oscillator is divided by eight before being sent to the phase detector. With a 16MHz crystal, this provides a reference frequency of 2MHz. The VCO within the PLL operates over a range of 400–800MHz. Its output is scaled by a divider that is configured by either the serial or parallel interfaces. The output of this loop divider is also applied to the phase detector. The phase detector and loop filter force the VCO output frequency to be M times the reference frequency by adjusting the VCO control voltage. Note that for some values of M (either too high or too low) the PLL will not achieve loop lock. External loop filter components are utilized to allow for optimal phase jitter performance. The output of the VCO is also passed through an output divider before being sent to the PECL output driver. The output divider is configured through either the serial or the parallel interfaces and can provide one of four divider ratios (2, 4, 8 or 16). This divider extends the performance of the part while providing a 50% duty cycle. The output driver is driven differentially from the output divider and is capable of driving a pair of transmission lines terminated in 50ý. The positive reference for the output driver is provided by a dedicated power pin (VCC_OUT) to reduce noise and provide application flexibility. The configuration logic has two sections: serial and parallel. The parallel interface uses the values at the M[8:0] and N[1:0] inputs to configure the internal counters. Normally upon system reset, the P_LOAD input is held LOW until sometime after power becomes valid. With S_LOAD held LOW, on the LOW-to-HIGH transition of P_LOAD, the parallel inputs are captured. The parallel interface has priority over the serial interface. Internal pull-up resistors are provided on the M[8:0] and N[1:0] inputs to reduce component count. The serial interface logic is implemented with a 14-bit shift register scheme. The register shifts once per rising edge of the S_CLOCK input. The serial input S_DATA must meet set-up and hold timing as specified in the AC parameters section of this data sheet. With P_LOAD held HIGH, the configuration latches will capture the value in the shift register on the HIGH-to-LOW edge of the S_LOAD input. See the programming section for more information. The TEST output reflects various internal node values and is controlled by the T[2:0] bits in the serial data stream. See the programming section for more information. 4 Precision Edge® SY89429A Micrel, Inc. Programming interface The TEST output provides visibility for one of several internal nodes (as determined by the T[1:0] bits in the serial configuration stream). It is not configurable through the parallel interface. Although it is possible to select the node that represents FOUT, the TTL output may not be able to toggle fast enough for some of the higher output frequencies. The T2, T1, T0 configuration latches are preset to 000 when P_LOAD is low, so that the FOUT outputs are as jitter-free as possible. The serial configuration port can be used to select one of the alternate functions for this pin. The Test register is loaded with the first three bits, the N register with the next two and the M register with the final eight bits of the data stream on the S_DATA input. For each register the most significant bit is loaded first (T2, N1 and M8). When T[2:0] is set to 100 the SY89429A is placed in PLL bypass mode. In this mode the S_CLOCK input is fed directly into the M and N dividers. The N divider drives the FOUT differential pair and the M counter drives the TEST output pin. In this mode the S_CLOCK input could be used for low speed board level functional test or debug. Bypassing the PLL and driving FOUT directly gives the user more control on the test clocks sent through the clock tree (See detailed Block Diagram). Because the S_CLOCK is a TTL level the input frequency is limited to 250MHz or less. This means the fastest the FOUT pin can be toggled via the S_CLOCK is 125MHz as the minimum divide ratio of the N counter is 2. Note that the M counter output on the TEST output will not be a 50% duty cycle due to the way the divider is implemented. Programming the device is accomplished by properly configuring the internal dividers to produce the desired frequency at the outputs. The output frequency can be represented by this formula: &/54 &84!, 8 . Where FXTAL is the crystal frequency, M is the loop divider modulus, and N is the output divider modulus. Note that it is possible to select values of M such that the PLL is unable to achieve loop lock. To avoid this, always make sure that M is selected to be 200 M 400 for a 16MHz input reference. M[8:0] and N[1:0] are normally specified once at power-on, through the parallel interface, and then possibly again through the serial interface. This approach allows the designer to bring up the application at one frequency and then change or fine-tune the clock, as the ability to control the serial interface becomes available. To minimize transients in the frequency domain, the output should be varied in the smallest step size possible.
