ICS ICS728

ICS728
LOW COST 27 MHZ 3.3 VOLT VCXO
Description
Features
The ICS728 combines the functions of a VCXO
(Voltage Controlled Crystal Oscillator) and PLL (Phase
Locked Loop) frequency doubler onto a single chip.
Used in conjunction with an external pullable quartz
crystal, this monolithic integrated circuit replaces more
costly hybrid (canned) VCXO devices. The ICS728 is
designed primarily for data and clock recovery
applications within end products such as set-top box
receivers.
• Ideal for set-top box applications using 13.5 MHz
external pullable crystal to generate lock 27 MHz
clock transport video clock
• On-chip VCXO with guaranteed pull range of ±110
ppm minimum
• VCXO input tuning voltage 0 to 3.3 V
• Packaged in 8-pin SOIC (150 mil wide)
• Available in Pb (lead) free package
The ICS728 exhibits a moderate VCXO gain of 110
ppm/V typical, when used with a high quality external
pullable quartz crystal.
The frequency of the on-chip VCXO is adjusted by an
external control voltage input into pin VIN. Because
VIN is a high impedance input, it can be driven directly
from an PWM RC integrator circuit. Frequency output
increases with VIN voltage input. The usable range of
VIN is 0 to 3.3 V.

LOW COST 27 MHZ 3.3 VOLT VCXO
External Component Selection
The third overtone mode of the crystal and all spurs
must be >100 ppm distant from 3x the fundamental
resonance measured with a physical load of 14 pF.
The ICS728 requires a minimum number of external
components for proper operation.
Decoupling Capacitor
A decoupling capacitor of 0.01µF must be connected
between VDD (pin 2) and GND (pin 4), as close to
these pins as possible. For optimum device
performance, the decoupling capacitor should be
mounted on the component side of the PCB. Avoid the
use of vias in the decoupling circuit.
Series Termination Resistor
When the PCB trace between the clock output (CLK,
pin 5) and the load is over 1 inch, series termination
should be used. To series terminate a 50Ω trace (a
commonly used trace impedance) place a 33Ω resistor
in series with the clock line, as close to the clock output
pin as possible. The nominal impedance of the clock
output is 20Ω.
Quartz Crystal
The ICS728 VCXO function consists of the external
crystal and the integrated VCXO oscillator circuit. To
assure the best system performance (frequency pull
range) and reliability, a crystal device with the
recommended parameters (shown below) must be
used, and the layout guidelines discussed in the
following section shown must be followed.
The frequency of oscillation of a quartz crystal is
determined by its “cut” and by the load capacitors
connected to it. The ICS728 incorporates on-chip
variable load capacitors that “pull” (change) the
frequency of the crystal. The crystal specified for use
with the ICS728 is designed to have zero frequency
error when the total of on-chip + stray capacitance is 14
pF.
Recommended Crystal Parameters:
Initial Accuracy at 25°C
Temperature Stability
Aging
Load Capacitance
Shunt Capacitance, C0
C0/C1 Ratio
Equivalent Series Resistance
Crystal Tuning Load Capacitors
The crystal traces should include pads for small fixed
capacitors, one between X1 and ground, and another
between X2 and ground. Stuffing of these capacitors
on the PCB is optional. The need for these capacitors is
determined at system prototype evaluation, and is
influenced by the particular crystal used and by PCB
layout. The typical required capacitor value is 1 to 4 pF.
To determine the need for and value of the crystal
adjustment capacitors, you will need a PC board of
your final layout, a frequency counter capable of 1 ppm
resolution and accuracy, two power supplies, and some
samples of the crystals which you plan to use in
production, along with measured initial accuracy for
each crystal at the specified crystal load capacitance,
CL.
To determine the value of the crystal capacitors:
1. Connect VDD of the ICS728 to 3.3 V. Connect pin 3
of the ICS728 to the second power supply. Adjust the
voltage on pin 3 to 0V. Measure and record the
frequency of the CLK output.
2. Adjust the voltage on pin 3 to 3.3 V. Measure and
record the frequency of the same output.
To calculate the centering error:
6 ( f 3.0V – f t arg et ) + ( f 0V – f t arg et )
Error = 10 x ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ – error xtal

If the centering error is less than ±25 ppm, no
adjustment is needed. If the centering error is more
than 25 ppm negative, the PC board has excessive
stray capacitance and a new PCB layout should be
considered to reduce stray capacitance. (Alternately,
the crystal may be re-specified to a higher load

Integrated Circuit Systems
The external crystal must be connected as close to the
chip as possible and should be on the same side of the
PCB as the ICS728. There should be no vias between
the crystal pins and the X1 and X2 device pins. There
should be no signal traces underneath or close to the
crystal.

capacitance. Contact ICS for details.) If the centering
error is more than 25 ppm positive, add identical fixed
centering capacitors from each crystal pin to ground.
The value for each of these caps (in pF) is given by:
External Capacitor = 2 x (centering error)/(trim
sensitivity)
Trim sensitivity is a parameter which can be supplied by
your crystal vendor. If you do not know the value,
assume it is 30 ppm/pF. After any changes, repeat the
measurement to verify that the remaining error is
acceptably low (typically less than ±25 ppm).
Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the ICS728. 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.
