PRELIMINARY INFORMATION ICS291 Triple PLL Field Prog. Spread Spectrum Clock Synthesizer Description Features The ICS291 field programmable spread spectrum clock synthesizer generates up to six high-quality, high-frequency clock outputs including multiple reference clocks from a low-frequency crystal input. It is designed to replace crystals, crystal oscillators and stand alone spread spectrum devices in most electronic systems. • • • • • • • • • Using ICS’ VersaClockTM software to configure PLLs and outputs, the ICS291 contains a One-Time Programmable (OTP) ROM for field programmability. Programming features include input/output frequencies, spread spectrum amount, eight selectable configuration registers and up to two sets of three low-skew outputs. Each of the two output groups are powered by a separate VDDO voltage. VDDO may vary from 1.8 V to VDD. Using Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) techniques, the device runs from a standard fundamental mode, inexpensive crystal, or clock. It can replace multiple crystals and oscillators, saving board space and cost. • • • • • Packaged as 20-pin TSSOP Eight addressable registers Replaces multiple crystals and oscillators Output frequencies up to 200 MHz at 3.3 V Configurable Spread Spectrum Modulation Input crystal frequency of 5 to 27 MHz Clock input frequency of 3 to 166 MHz Up to six reference outputs Separate 1.8 to 3.3 V VDDO output level controls for each bank of 3 outputs Up to two sets of three low-skew outputs Operating voltages of 3.3 V Controllable output drive levels Advanced, low-power CMOS process Available in Pb (lead) free packaging The ICS291 is also available in factory programmed custom versions for high-volume applications.

Spread Spectrum Clock Synthesizer External Components set within the range of M = 1 to 1024 and N = 1 to 32,895. The ICS291 requires a minimum number of external components for proper operation. The ICS291 also provides separate output divide values, from 2 through 63, to allow the two output clock banks to support widely differing frequency values from the same PLL. Series Termination Resistor Clock output traces over one inch should use series termination. 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. Each output frequency can be represented as: OutputFreq = REFFreq ----⋅M N Output Drive Control The ICS291 has two output drive settings. For VDDO=VDD, low drive should be selected when outputs are less than 100 MHz. High drive should be selected when outputs are greater than 100 MHz. Decoupling Capacitors As with any high-performance mixed-signal IC, the ICS291 must be isolated from system power supply noise to perform optimally. Decoupling capacitors of 0.01µF must be connected between each VDD and the PCB ground plane. For optimum device performance, the decoupling capacitor should be mounted on the component side of the PCB. Avoid the use of vias on the decoupling circuit. For VDDO<2.8 V, high drive should be selected for all output frequencies. (Consult the AC Electrical Characteristics for output rise and fall times for each drive option.) ICS VersaClock Software Crystal Load Capacitors The device crystal connections should include pads for small capacitors from X1 to ground and from X2 to ground. These capacitors are used to adjust the stray capacitance of the board to match the nominally required crystal load capacitance. Because load capacitance can only be increased in this trimming process, it is important to keep stray capacitance to a minimum by using very short PCB traces (and no vias) been the crystal and device. Crystal capacitors must be connected from each of the pins X1 and X2 to ground. The value (in pF) of these crystal caps should equal (CL -6 pF)*2. In this equation, CL= crystal load capacitance in pF. Example: For a crystal with a 16 pF load capacitance, each crystal capacitor would be 20 pF [(16-6) x 2] = 20. ICS291 Configuration Capabilities The architecture of the ICS291 allows the user to easily configure the device to a wide range of output frequencies, for a given input reference frequency. The frequency multiplier PLL provides a high degree of precision. The M/N values (the multiplier/divide values available to generate the target VCO frequency) can be VersaClock software quickly evaluates accessible VCO frequencies with available output divide values and provides an easy to understand, bar code rating for the target output frequencies. The user may evaluate output accuracy, performance trade-off scenarios in seconds. Spread Spectrum Modulation The ICS291 utilizes frequency modulation (FM) to distribute energy over a range of frequencies. By modulating the output clock frequencies, the device effectively lowers energy across a broader range of frequencies; thus, lowering a system’s electromagnetic interference (EMI). The modulation rate is the time from transitioning from a minimum frequency to a maximum frequency and then back to the minimum. 3 MDS 291 C Integrated Circuit Systems, Inc. ICS applies years of PLL optimization experience into a user friendly software that accepts the user’s target reference clock and output frequencies and generates the lowest jitter, lowest power configuration, with only a press of a button. The user does not need to have prior PLL experience or determine the optimal VCO frequency to support multiple output frequencies. ● 525 Race Street, San Jose, CA 95126 Revision 062205 ● tel (408) 297-1201 ● www.icst.com PRELIMINARY INFORMATION ICS291 Triple PLL Field Prog. Spread Spectrum Clock Synthesizer Spread Spectrum Modulation can be applied as either “center spread” or “down spread”. During center spread modulation, the deviation from the target frequency is equal in the positive and negative directions. The effective average frequency is equal to the target frequency. In applications where the clock is driving a component with a maximum frequency rating, down spread should be applied. In this case, the maximum frequency, including modulation, is the target frequency. The effective average frequency is less than the target frequency. The ICS291 operates in both center spread and down spread modes. For center spread, the frequency can be modulated between ±0.125% to ±2.0%. For down spread, the frequency can be modulated between -0.25% to -4.0%. Both output frequency banks will utilize identical spread spectrum percentage deviations and modulation rates, if a common VCO frequency can be identified. Spread Spectrum Modulation Rate The spread spectrum modulation frequency applied to the output clock frequency may occur at a variety of rates. For applications requiring the driving of “down-circuit” PLLs, Zero Delay Buffers, or those adhering to PCI standards, the spread spectrum modulation rate should be set to 30-33 kHz. For other applications, a 120 kHz modulation option is available. Absolute Maximum Ratings Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the ICS291. 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.
