General Description
The SM3 timing module provides a clock output that meets or exceeds Stratum 3 specifications given in GR-1244-CORE (Issue 2),
GR-253-CORE (Issue 3), ITU-T G.812 (Type 3) and ITU-T G813 (Option 2). The SM3 features four reference inputs that will
auto-detect the following reference frequencies: 8 kHz, 1.544 MHz, 2.048 MHz, 12.96 MHz, 19.44 MHz, 25.92 MHz, 38.88 MHz,
51.84 MHz and 77.76 MHz.
The SM3 timing module can be configured during production to produce an output up to 77.76 MHz. This output is derived from
an onboard VCXO and must be specified when ordering. The BITS output selectable for either 1.544 or 2.048 MHz. The master/
slave output is 8KHz. The user communicates with the SM3 module through a SPI port. The user controls the SM3 operation by
writing to the appropriate registers . The user can also enable or disable SPI operation through a SPI_Enable pin.
The SM3 offers a wide range of options for the system designer. The bandwidth is SPI Por t-selectable from 0.025 Hz to 1.6 Hz.
0.098 Hz is the recommended operational bandwidth for SONET Minimum Clock and most Stratum 3 applications. The 8 kHz output has an adjustable pulse width. The pull-in range is also adjustable to establish the desired reference frequency rejection limits. A Free Run frequency calibration value can be written to the module to provide a high degree of accuracy in the free run mode.
The reference frequency for any given reference input is automatically detected. A wealth of status information is available
through the SPI Port registers. The user also has a choice between autonomous or full manual control operation.
In manual mode, the user controls the module operating modes Free Run, Hold Over or locked to a specific reference in normal mode. If the chosen reference is unavailable or disqualified the module automatically enters Hold Over.
In autonomous control mode, operational mode selection occurs automatically based on reference priority and qualification
status. When the active reference becomes disqualified, the module will switch to another qualified reference. If none is available,
it will switch to Holdover. In the revertive mode the module will seek to acquire the highest priority qualified reference. In the nonrevertive mode the module will not return to the previous reference even after it is re-qualified unless there are no other qualified
references.
Switching between references is hitless. Likewise, the output frequency slew rate is minimized during any change of operating
mode, including entry into and return from Free Run or Hold Over to protect traffic from transient-induced bit errors.
Reference Status information and the operating mode information is accessed through status registers. The module will set the
Interrupt pin (SPI_INT) low to indicate a status change. An Alarm pin is used to indicate failure of the active reference status.
Free Run operation guarantees an output within 4.6ppm of nominal frequency and Holdover operation guarantees the output
frequency will not change by more than 0.37ppm during the first 24 hours. Frequency accuracy is based on a TCXO for its small
size, low power consumption and outstanding performance over all environmental conditions.
The module operates on 3.3V ± 5% with a typical power draw of less than 500 milliwatts. The module operates over the 0° to
70°C commercial temperature range.

Detailed Description
The SM3 can accept up to 4 external references from 8 kHz to 77.76 MHz and each is monitored for signal presence and frequency
offset. Additionally, a cross-couple reference input is provided for master/slave operation. Reference selection may be manual or
automatic, according to pre-programmed priorities. All reference switches are performed in a hitless manner, and frequency ramp
controls ensure smooth output signal transitions. When references are switched, the device provides an automatic phase build-out to
minimize phase transitions in the output clocks.
Three output signals are provided, the first up to 77.76 MHz , the second fixed at 8 kHz for use as a Frame Sync signal as well as a
cross-couple reference for master/slave operation. The third output is a BITS clock, selectable as either 1.544 MHz or 2.048 MHz.
Device operation may be in Free Run, locked, or Hold Over modes. In Free Run, the clock frequencies are simply determined by the
accuracy of the calibrated internal clock. In locked mode, the SM3 phase locks to the selected input reference. While locked, a frequency
history is accumulated. In Hold Over mode, the output frequencies are generated according to this history.
The Digital Phase Locked Loop provides the critical filtering and frequency/phase control that meet or exceed all requirements in
critical jitter and accuracy performance parameters. Filter bandwidth may be configured to suit applications requirements.
Control functions are provided via standard SPI bus register interface. Register access provides visibility into a variety of registered
information as well as providing extensive programmable control capability.
Operating Modes: The SM3 Operates in Either Free Run, Locked, or Hold Over Mode:
Free Run – In Free Run mode, Output 1, M/S Output, and BITS_Clk, the output clocks, are determined directly from and have the
accuracy of the calibrated free running internal clock. Reference inputs continue to be monitored for signal presence and frequency
offset, but are not used to synchronize the outputs.
Locked – The Output 1, M/S Output, and BITS_Clk, outputs are phase locked and track the selected input reference. Upon entering
the Locked mode, the device begins an acquisition process that includes reference qualification and frequency slew rate limiting, if
needed. Once satisfactory lock is achieved, the “Locked” bit is set in the DPLL_Status register, and a compilation of the frequency history
of the selected reference is started. When a usable Hold Over history has been established, the Hold_Good pin is set, and the “Hold
Over Available” bit is set in the DPLL_Status register.
Phase comparison and phase lock loop filtering operations in the SM3 are completely digital. As a result, device and loop behavior
are entirely predictable, repeatable, and extremely accurate. Carefully designed and proven algorithms and techniques ensure
completely hit-less reference switches, operational mode changes, and master/slave switches.
Basic loop bandwidth is programmable from .025 Hz to 1.6 Hz, giving the user a wide range of control over the system response.
When a new reference is acquired, maximum frequency slew limits ensure smooth frequency changes. Once lock is achieved, (<100
seconds for stratum 3), the “Locked” bit is set. If the SM3 is unable to maintain lock, Loss of Lock (LOL) is asserted. All transitions
between locked, Hold Over and Free Run modes are performed with minimal phase events and smooth frequency and phase transitions.
Reference phase hits or phase differences encountered when switching references (or when entering locked mode) are nulled out
with an automatic phase build-out function, with a residual phase error of less than 1ns.
Hold Over – Upon entering Hold Over mode, the Output 1, M/S Output, and BITS_Clk, outputs are determined from the Hold Over
history established for the last selected reference. Output frequency is determined by a weighted average of the Hold Over history, and
accuracy is determined by the internal clock. Hold Over mode may be entered manually or automatically. Automatic entry into Hold Over
mode occurs when operating in the automatic mode, the reference is lost, and no other valid reference exists. The transfer into and out of
Hold Over mode is designed to be smooth and free of hits. The frequency slew is also limited to a maximum of ±2 ppm/sec.
The history accumulation algorithm uses a first order frequency difference filtering algorithm. Typical holdover accumulation takes
about 15 minutes. When a usable holdover history has been established, the Hold_Good pin is set, and the “Holdover Available” bit is set
in the DPLL_Status register. The holdover history continues to be updated after “Holdover Avaialble” is declared.
The algorithm accumulates the holdover history only when it has locked to either an external reference in Master operation or the M/S
REF clock in Slave operation, starting 15 minutes after power up. Tracking will be suspended automatically when switching to a new
reference and in Hold Over or Free Run mode. A set of registers allows the application to control a holdover history maintenance policy,
enabling either a re-build or continuance of the history when a reference switch occurs.

Furthermore, under register access control, a backup holdover history register is provided. It may be loaded from the active holdover
history or restored to the active holdover history. The active holdover history may also be flushed.
Holdover mode may be entered at any time. If there is no holdover history available, the prior output frequency will be maintained.
When in holdover, the application may read (via register access) the time since holdover was enterred.
Master/Slave Operation
Pairs of SM3 devices may be operated in a master/slave configuration for redundant timing source applications. A typical
configuration is shown below.:

M/S OUTPUT / OUTPUT1 / BITS
M/S OUTPUT / OUTPUT1 / BITS
Any output of each device may be cross-connected to the other device’s M/S Ref input. The device auto-detects the frequency on the
M/S Ref input. Master or slave state of a device is determined by the M/S pin. Thus, master/slave state is always manually controlled by
the application. The master synchronizes to the selected input reference, while the slave synchronizes to the M/S Ref input. (Note that
8kHz frame phase alignment is maintained across a master/slave pair of devices only if M/S Output is used as the cross couple signal.)
The unit operating in slave mode locks on and phase-aligns to the cross-reference clock (M/S Output or Output 1) from the unit in
master mode. The phase skew between the input cross-reference and the output clock for the slave unit is typically less than ±1ns (under
±3ns in dynamic situations, including reference jitter and wander).
Perfect phase alignment of the two Output 1 output clocks would require no delay on the cross-reference clock connection. To
accommodate path length delays, the SM3 provides a programmable phase skew feature. The slave’s Output 1 or M/S Output may be
phase shifted -32nS to +31.75nS relative to M/S Input according to the contents of the MS_Phase_Offset register to compensate for the
path length of the M/S Output or Output 1 to M/S Input connection. This offset may therefore be programmed to exactly compensate for
the actual path length delay associated with the particular application's cross-reference traces. The offset may further be adjusted to
accommodate any output clock distribution path delay differences. Thus, master/slave switches with the SM3 devices may be
accomplished with near-zero phase hits.
The first time a unit becomes a slave, such as immediately after power-up, its output clock phase starts out arbitrary, and will quickly
phase-align to the cross-reference from the master unit. The phase skew will be eliminated (or converged to the programmed phase
offset) step by step. The whole pull-in-and-lock process will complete in about 60 seconds. There is no frequency slew protection in slave
mode. In slave mode, the unit's mission is to lock to and follow the master.
Once a pair of units has been operating in aligned master/slave mode, and a master/slave switch occurs, the unit that becomes
master will maintain its output clock phase and frequency while a phase build-out (to the current output clock phase) is performed on its
selected reference input. Therefore, as master mode operation commences, there will be no phase or frequency hits on the clock output.
Likewise, the unit that becomes the slave will maintain its output clock frequency and phase for 1 msec before starting to follow the
cross-reference, protecting the downstream clock users during the switch. Assuming the phase offset is programmed for the actual
propagation delay of this cross-reference path, there will again be no phase hits on the output clock of the unit that has transitioned from
master to slave.

Reference Input Quality Monitoring
Each reference input is monitored for signal presence and frequency offset. Signal presence for the Ref1-4 inputs is indicated in the
Ref_Activity register and signal presence for the M/S REF is indicated in bit 0 of the M/S REF_Activity register. The frequency offset
between the Ref1-4 inputs and the calibrated local oscillator is available in the Ref_Frq_Offset registers (4). Register Ref_Pullin_Sts
indicates, for each of the Ref1-4 inputs, if the reference is within the maximum pull-in range. The maximum pull-in range is indicated in
register Max_Pullin_Range, and may be set in 0.1ppm increments. Typically, it would be set according to the values specified by the
standards (GR-1244) appropriate for the particular stratum of operation.
The Ref_Qualified register contains the “anded” condition of the Ref_Activity and Ref_Pullin_Sts registers for each of the Ref1-4
inputs, qualified for 10 seconds. When a reference signal has been present for > 10 seconds and is within the pull-in range, it’s bit is set.
The Ref_Available register contains the “anded” condition of the Ref_Qualified register and the Ref_Mask register, and therefore
represents the availability of a reference for selection when automatic reference and operational mode selection is enabled.
Reference Input Selection, Frequencies, and Mode Selection
One of four reference input signals (Ref 1-4) are selected for synchronization in Master mode (as below in the Op_Mode register
description. 0x05). Ref1-4 may each be 8 kHz, 1.544 MHz, 2.048 MHz, 12.96 MHz, 19.44 MHz, 25.92 MHz, 38.88 MHz, 51.84 MHz or
77.76 MHz.
Reference frequencies are auto-detected (frequency determined by the chip) and the detected frequency can be read from the
Ref_Frq_Priority registers (See Register Descriptions and Operation section).
The M/S REF input for slave operation is frequency auto-detected and may be 8kHz, 1.544MHz, 2.048MHz, 12.96MHz, 19.44MHz,
25.92MHz, 38.88MHz, 51.84MHz or 77.76MHz. Signal presence and frequency for the M/S REF input is indicated in bits 0-3 of the M/S
REF_Activity register.
Active reference and operational mode selection may be manual or automatic, as determined by bit 1 in the Ctl_Mode register. In
manual mode, register writes to Op_Mode select the reference and mode. The reset default is manual mode.
In automatic mode, the reference is selected according to the priorities written to the four Ref_Frq_Priority registers. Individual
references may be masked for use/non-use according to the Ref_Mask register. A reference may only be selected if it is “available” - that
is, it is qualified, as indicated in the Ref_Qualified register, and is not masked (See Reference Input Quality Monitoring and Register
Descriptions and Operation sections).
Furthermore, Bit 3 of each Ref_Frq_Priority register will determine if that reference is revertive or non-revertive. When a reference
fails, the next highest priority “available” (signal present, non-masked, and acceptable frequency offset) reference will be selected. When
a reference returns, it will be switched to only if it is of higher priority and the current active reference is marked “Revertive”. Additionally,
the reversion is delayed according to the value written to the Ref_Rev_Delay register (From 0 to 255 minutes).

Output Signals and Frequency
Output 1 is the primary output, and in locked mode is synchronized to the selected reference. Output 1 must be specified at the time
of ordering as any one of the following frequencies : 12.96 MHz, 19.44 MHz, 25.92 MHz, 38.88 MHz, 51.84 MHz or 77.76 MHz.
M/S Output is an 8 kHz output available as a frame reference or synchronization signal for cross-coupled pairs of SM3 devices
operated in master/slave mode. In master mode, M/S Output is synchronized to the selected reference. In slave mode, M/S Output is in
phase with the M/S REF offset by the value written to the Phase_offset register (+31.75 to -32nS, with .25nS resolution). M/S Output
may be a 50% duty cycle signal, or variable high-going pulse width, as determined by the Ctl_Mode and Fr_Pulse_Width registers. In
variable pulse width mode, the width may be from 1 to 15 multiples of the Output 1 cycle time. See Register Descriptions and Operation
section.
BITS_Clk is the BITS clock output at either 1.544 MHz or 2.048 MHz. It is selected by the T1/E1 input and its state may be read
in bit 3 of the Ctl_Mode register. When T1/E1 = 1, the BITS frequency is 1.544 MHz, and when T1/E1 = 0, the BITS frequency is
2.048 MHz. This output clock is digitally synthesized from Output1 directly and will be synchronized to M/S Output.
Interrupts
The SM3 module supports eight different interrupts and appears in INTR_EVENT (0x12) register. Each interrupt can be individually
enabled or disabled via the INTR_ENABLE (0x13) register. Each bit enables or disables the corresponding interrupt from asserting the
SPI_INT pin. Interrupt events still appear in the INTR_EVENT (0x12) register independent of their enable state. All interrupts are cleared
once INTR_EVENT (0x12) register is read. The interrupts are:
•
Any reference changing from available to not available
•
Any reference changing from not available to available
•
M/S REF changing from activity to no activity
•
M/S REF changing from no activity to activity
•
DPLL Mode status change
•
Reference switch in automatic reference selection mode
•
Loss of Signal
•
Loss of Lock
Interrupts and Reference Change in Autonomous Mode
Interrupts can be used to determine the cause of a reference change in autonomous mode. Let us assume that the module is
currently locked to REF1. The module switches to REF2 and SPI_INT pin is asserted. The user reads the INTR_EVENT (0x12) register.
If the module is operating in autonomous revertive mode, the cause can be determined from bits 1, 4,5, 6 and 7. Bit 5 is set to
indicate Active reference change. If Bit 6 is set then the cause of the reference change is Loss of Active Reference. If Bit 7 is set then the
cause of the reference change is a Loss of Lock alarm on the active reference. If Bit 1 is set then the cause of the reference change is
the availability of a higher priority reference.
Note: The DPLL Mode Status Change bit (Bit 4) is also set to indicate a change in DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register, during an interrupt
caused by a reference change. The data in DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register however is not useful in determining the cause of a reference
change. This is because bits 0-2 of this register always reflects the status of the current active reference and hence cannot be used to
determine the status of the last active reference.
Interrupts in Manual Mode
In manual operating mode, when the active reference fails due to a Loss of Signal or Loss of Lock alarm, an interrupt is generated.
For example, in case of a Loss of Signal, bits4 and 6 of INTR_EVENT (0x12) register would be set to indicate Loss of Signal and DPLL
Mode Status Change. The user may choose to read the DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register, though in manual mode bit6 of INTR_EVENT
(0x12) register is a mirror of bit0 of DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register. This holds true for a Loss of Lock alarm, where bit7 of INTR_EVENT
(0x12) register is a mirror of bit1 of DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register.
Internal Clock Calibration
The internal clock may be calibrated by writing a frequency offset v.s. nominal frequency into the Calibration register. This calibration
is used by the synchronization software to create a frequency corrected from the actual internal clock output by the value written to the
Calibration register. See register descriptions.

Phase_Offset, 0x0e (R/W)
Bit 7 ~ Bit 0
The 2’s complement value of phase offset between Master Output module and Slave Output module, ranges from -32 nS to
+31.75 nS
Positive Value: Master Output rising edge leads Slave Output
Negative Value: Master Output rising edge lags Slave Output
In slave mode, the slave’s outputs may be phase shifted -32nS to +31.75nS in .25nS increments, relative to the Master module according to the contents of the Phase_Offset register, to compensate for the path length of the Master to Slave connection.
If a phase offset is used, then the two SM3 devices would typically be written to the appropriate phase offset values for the respective path lengths of each Master to Slave connection, to ensure that the same relative output signal phases will persist through
master/slave switches.
Calibration, 0x0f (R/W)
Bit 7 ~ Bit 0
2’s complement value of local oscillator digital calibration in 0.05 ppm resolution
To digitally calibrate the free running clock synthesized from the internal clock, this register is written with a value corresponding
to the known frequency offset of the oscillator from the nominal center frequency.

BITS 4 and 5 of the Ctl_Mode register determine if the M/S 8 kHz output is 50% duty cycle or pulsed (high going) outputs. When
they are pulsed, the Fr_Pulse_Width register determines the width. Width is the register value multiple of the Sync_Clk clock period. Valid values are 1 - 15.

Bit 1 indicates a loss of lock (LOL). Loss of lock will be asserted if lock is not achieved within the specified time for the stratum level
of operation, or lock is lost after being established previously. LOL will not be asserted for automatic reference switches.
Bit 2 indicates successful phase lock. It will typically be set in <100 seconds for stratum 3 with a good reference. It will indicate “not

BITS 2 - 0 indicate the priority of each reference for use in automatic reference selection mode (bit 1 of the Ctl_Mode register =0). In
manual reference selection mode (bit 1 of the Ctl_Mode register = 1), these BITS are read-only and will contain either the reset default or values written when last in automatic reference selection mode. For equal priority values, lower reference numbers have
higher priority.
Bit 3 specifies if the reference is revertive or non-revertive in automatic reference selection mode. When a reference fails, the next
highest priority “available” (signal present, non-masked, and acceptable frequency offset) reference will be selected. When a reference returns, it will be switched to only if it is of higher priority and the current active reference is marked “Revertive”.
BITS 7 - 4 indicate the auto-detected frequency for each reference. Invalid frequencies may result in erroneous device operation. If
there is no activity on a reference, bits 7-4will be = 0000. Bits 7-4 are read only. 0x1c - 0x1f correspond to Ref1 - Ref4.

Performance Specifications
Performance Definitions
Jitter and Wander – Jitter and wander are defined respectively as “the short-term and long-term variations of the significant instants
of a digital signal from their ideal positions in time”. They are therefore the phase or position in time modulations of a digital signal relative
to their ideal positions. These phase modulations can in turn be characterized in terms of their amplitude and frequency. Jitter is defined
as those phase variations at rates above 10Hz, and wander as those variations at rates below 10Hz.
Fractional frequency offset and drift – The fractional frequency offset of a clock is the ratio of the frequency error (from the nominal
or desired frequency) to the desired frequency. It is typically expressed as (n parts in 10X), or (n x 10-X). Drift is the measure of a clock’s
frequency offset over time. It is expressed the same way as offset.
Time Interval Error (TIE) – TIE is a measure of wander and is defined as the variation in the time delay of a given signal relative to an
ideal signal over a particular time period. It is typically measured in nS. TIE is set to zero at the start of a measurement, and thus
represents the phase change since the beginning of the measurement.
Maximum Time Interval Error (MTIE) – MTIE is a measurement of wander that finds the peak-to-peak variations in the time delay of
a signal for a given window of time, called the observation interval (t). Therefore it is the largest peak-to-peak TIE in any observation
interval of length t within the entire measurement window of TIE data. MTIE is therefore a useful measure of phase transients, maximum
wander and frequency offsets. MTIE increases monotonically with increasing observation interval.
Time Deviation (TDEV) – TDEV is a measurement of wander that characterizes the spectral content of phase noise. TDEV(t is the
RMS of filtered TIE, where the bandpass filter is centered on a frequency of 0.42/t.
SM3 Performance
Input Jitter Tolerance – Input jitter tolerance is the amount of jitter at its input a clock can tolerate before generating an indication of
improper operation. GR-1244 and ITU-813 requirements specify jitter amplitude v.s. jitter frequency for jitter tolerance. The SM3 device
provides jitter tolerance that meets the specified requirements.
Input Wander Tolerance – Input wander tolerance is the amount of wander at its input a clock can tolerate before generating an
indication of improper operation. GR-1244 and ITU-813 requirements specify input wander TDEV vs. Integration Time as shown below.

Free Run Frequency Accuracy – Free Run frequency accuracy is the maximum fractional frequency offset while in Free Run mode.
It is determined by the accuracy of the internal clock.

The values in Bits 3-0 of this register have no effect on the operation of the Slave module.
For the Slave module to track the Master accurately, an appropriate Phase Offset value should be written to
PHASE_OFFSET register (Address 0x0e), to compensate for the path delay.
The module will lock to the Cross Reference Input (XREF) from the master.
IV RESET Parameters:

The reset pin should be held low for a minimum of 10 milliseconds to ensure a complete reset occurs.
The SPI interface should not be accessed for a minimum of 1200ms after the reset pin is de-asserted.
Switching Master/Slave designations:
The following steps need to be taken before making Master module a Slave and vice versa.
1.
Copy the value in the PHASE_OFFSET register (Address 0x0e) of the Slave to the Master module's PHASE_OFFSET
regsiter (Address 0x0e).
2.
Read the contents of Bits 3-0 of the Master's OP_MODE register (Address 0x05) and copy it into Bits 3-0 of the Slave's
OP_MODE register (Address 0x05).
3.
It is recommended that the contents of REF(1-4)_FRQ_PRIORITY registers (Address 0x1c-0x1f) and REF_MASK register
(Address 0x0b) from Master be copied to Slave to ensure seamless Master/Slave switches.
Master/Slave switches should be performed with minimal delay between switching the states of each of the two devices.

Application Notes
Available Output1 frequencies are: 12.96 MHz, 19.44 MHz, 25.92 MHz, 38.88 MHz, 51.84 MHz or 77.76MHz. After the module is
powered up, pull the reset pin low for 10ms. Wait 1200ms and read the contents of register 0x33. If it reads 1 then the module came up
properly. If it reads 0 then reset the module and re-read register0c33 after 1200ms. The contents of 0x33 must read 1 before using the
module.
Reference Inputs – The application may supply up to 4 reference inputs, applied at input pins Ref1 - 4. They may each be 8 kHz,
1.544 MHz, 2.048 MHz, 12.96 MHz, 19.44 MHz, 25.92 MHz, 38.88 MHz, 51.84 MHz or 77.76 MHz. The device auto-detects the
reference frequencies, and they may be read from the Ref(1-4)_Frq_Priority registers in register control mode, as described in the control
mode sections that follow.
Reference switches are performed in a hitless manner. However, if the application externally changes the frequency of a particular
reference, the device requires 20ms to auto-detect the new frequency. Manual switches to a frequency changed reference should not be
made during this interval. Automatic reference selection mode accounts for the auto-detection in the reference qualification.
References would typically (but need not be) connected in decreasing order of usage priority. For example if redundant BITS clocks
are available, they would typically be assigned to Ref1 and Ref2, with other transmission derived signals following thereafter.
Master/Slave operation – For some applications, reliability requirements may demand that the clock system be duplicated. The
SM3 device will support the master/slave duplicated configuration for such applications. To facilitate it’s use, the device includes the
necessary signal cross coupling and control functions. Redundancy for reliability implies two major considerations: 1) Maintaining
separate failure groups such that a failure in one group does not affect it’s mate, and 2) Physical and logical partitioning for repair, such
that a failed component can be replaced while the mate remains in service, if so desired. System design needs to account to meet
system level goals.

Master/Slave Configuration – A pair of devices are interconnected by cross-coupling their respective M/S Outputs or Output1 to
the other device’s M/S REF input (See Figure 8). Additionally, the reference inputs for each device would typically be correspondingly the
same, so that when a Master/Slave switch occurs, synchronization would continue with the same reference. (The SM3 continues to
qualify the reference inputs even in slave mode.) The references may be driven by the same signal directly or via separate drivers, as the
redundancy of that part of the system requires. Distribution path lengths are not critical here, as a phase build-out will occur when a
device switches from slave to master.
The path lengths of the two M/S Output to M/S REF signals is of interest, however. They need not be the same. However, to
accommodate path length delays, the SM3 provides a programmable phase skew feature, which allows the application to offset the
output clock from the cross-reference signal by -32ns to +31.75ns. This offset may therefore be programmed to exactly compensate for
the actual path length delay associated with the particular application’s cross-reference traces. The offset may be further adjusted to
accommodate any output clock distribution path delay differences. Phase offset is programmed by writing to the Phase_Offset register,
and is typically a one-time device initialization function. (See register description and Register Access Control sections). Thus, master/
slave switches with the SM3 devices may be accomplished with near-zero phase hits.
Master/Slave Operation and Control – The Master/Slave state is always manually controlled by the application. Master or slave
state of a device is determined by the MASTER SELECT pin. Choosing the master/slave states is a function of the application, based on
the configuration of the rest of the system and potential detected fault conditions.
M/S REF input activity and frequency may be monitored by reading the M/S_Activity register (0x07). Any changes on M/S REF input
are signaled by the SPI_INT and noted by reading the Intr_Event register (0x12) bits 2 & 3.
When operating in Register Access Manual Control mode, it is important to set the slave reference selection the same as the master
to ensure use of the same reference when/if the slave becomes master. In Register Access Manual Control mode, the Ref_Mask
register should also be written to the same value for both devices.
Master/slave switches should be performed with minimal delay between switching the states of each of the two devices. This can be
easily accomplished, for example, by controlling the master/slave state with a single signal, coupled to one of the devices through an
inverter. While performing Master/Slave switches, one has to make sure that both modules are not in slave mode. This creates a “Timing
Loop” that can cause undesirable effects.
In the case of Register Access Automatic Control mode, where reference selection is automatic, it is necessary to read the
operational mode BITS 3-0) from the master’s Op_Mode register and write it to the slave’s Op_Mode register. The master’s reference
selection will then be used by the slave when it becomes master. In addition to having the references populated the same, and in the
same order for both devices, it is desireable to write the reference frequency and priority registers Ref(1-4)_Frq_Priority and the
Ref_Mask registers to the same values for both devices to ensure seamless master/slave switches.
Reset – Device reset is an initialization time function, which resets internal logic and register values. A reset is performed
automatically when the device is powered up. Registers return to their default values, as noted in the register descriptions.
Holdover History Accumulation and Maintenance -- Holdover history accumulation and maintenance may be controlled in greater
detail if register bus access to the device is provided. Holdover history accumulation and control encompasses three device internal
registers, three bus access registers for control and access, and two status bits in the DPLL_Status register.
Hold Over History
Accumulation Register
Active

Backup
Hold Over History
Once lock has been achieved, holdover history is compiled in the accumulation register. It is transferred to the Active holdover history
when it is ready (typically in about 15 minutes). The “Holdover Available” bit and output pin are set to “1”. From then on, the Active
holdover history is continually updated and kept in sync with the holdover history accumulation register. (See Figure 11).

Application Notes continued
Holdover History Accumulation and Maintenance continued – Whenever holdover is entered, it is the Active Holdover History that
is used to determine the holdover frequency. The History_Cmd register allows the application to issue three holdover history control
commands:
1) Save the Active Holdover History to the Backup History.
2) Restore a Backup History to the Active.
3) Flush the active History as well as the accumulation register. The Backup history remains intact.
Both the Active and the Backup holdover histories are loaded with the calibrated freerun synthesizer control data on reset/power-up.
The application might use the “save to backup” in a situation where, for example, the primary reference is known to be of higher
quality than any secondary references, in which case it may be desirable to save and then restore the holdover history accumulated on
the primary reference if the primary reference is lost and holdover is entered upon loss of a secondary reference. Users can restore the
history from backup any time, even while operating in Holdover mode. The frequency transient will be smooth and continuous. It is the
responsibility of application software to keep track of the age and viability of the holdover backup history. Given time and temperature
effects on oscillator aging, the application may wish to periodically perform a “Save” of the Active history to keep the backup current.
When switching to a new reference, the active holdover history will remain intact and marked as “Holdover Available” (if it was
available before the reference switch) until a new history is accumulated on the new reference (Typically 15 minutes after lock has been
achieved). During the new history accumulation, the “Holdover Build Complete” bit is reset. Once the new history accumulation is
complete, it is transferred to the Active History and the “Holdover Build Complete” bit is set. The active history will then continue to be
updated to track the reference.
The History_Policy register allows the application to control how a new history is built. When set to “Rebuild”:
1) History accumulation begins when lock is achieved on the new reference.
2) The holdover history is rebuilt (taking about 15 minutes). The Active History remains untouched until it is replaced when the build is
complete.
When the policy is set to “Continue”:
1) If there is no “Available” Active History, a new build occurs, as under the “Rebuild” policy.
2) If there is an “Available” Active History, it will continue, the accumulation register will be loaded from the
Active History, and the “Build” process is essentially completed immediately following lock on the new reference.
The “Continue” policy may be used by the application if, for example, it is known that the reference switched to may be traced to the
same source and therefore likely has no frequency offset from the prior reference. In that case, the “Continue” policy avoids the delay of
rebuilding the holdover history. If the switch is likely to be between references with known or unknown frequency offset, then it is
preferable to use the “Rebuild” policy.
The time since the holdover state was entered may be read from the Holdover_Time register. Values are from 0 to 255 hours, limited
at 255, and reset to 0 when not in the holdover state.
Boundary Scan IEEE1149.1-2001 (Limited Testability Support) - This module exposes a boundary scan chain which contains one
or more boundary scan testable IEEE1149.1-2001 complaint devices. The exposed boundary scan chain is IEEE1149.1-2001
compliant, and supports all documented testing modes of devices contained within chain. Integration of this module into an existing
boundary scan chain will require the following.
- Substitution of modules footprint with provided testability model schematic.
- Modified net list will need to be loaded into boundary scan test vector generation software.
Testability Model Schematic and BSDL file(s) can be obtained directly from factory.
Control Modes
The device must in turn be operated in a manual or automatic control mode.
Reset may be pulled low for a minimum of 10mS after SM3 start-up (or any other desired time) to initialize the full device state.
The BITS clock output frequency is selected by the T1/E1 pin. When T1/E1 = 1, the BITS frequency is 1.544 MHz, and when T1/E1 = 0,
the BITS frequency is 2.048 MHz.
MASTER SELECT - Determines the master or slave mode. Set to “1” for a master, and “0” for a slave. Master/slave switches should
be performed with minimal delay between switching the states of each of the two devices. This can be easily accomplished, for example,
by controlling the master/slave state with a single signal, coupled to one of the devices through an inverter.
For simplex operation, the device should be in Master mode - set MASTER SELECT to “1”.

SM3 Application Note on Interrupts
The SM3/3E module supports eight different interrupts and appears in INTR_EVENT (0x12) register. Each interrupt can be
individually enabled or disabled via the INTR_ENABLE (0x13) register. Each bit enables or disables the corresponding interrupt from
asserting the SPI_INT pin. Interrupt events still appear in the INTR_EVENT (0x12) register independent of their enable state. All
interrupts are cleared once INTR_EVENT (0x12) register is read. The interrupts are

Interrupts and Reference change in Autonomous mode: Interrupts can be used to determine the cause of a reference change in
autonomous mode. Let us assume that the module is currently locked to REF1. The module switches to REF2 and SPI_INT pin is
asserted. The user reads the INTR_EVENT (0x12) register.
If the module is operating in autonomous non-revertive mode, the cause can be determined from bits4, 5, 6 and 7. Bit 5 is set to indicate
Active reference change. If Bit 6 is set then the cause of the reference change is Loss of Active Reference. If Bit 7 is set then the cause of
the reference change is a Loss of Lock alarm on the active reference.
If the module is operating in autonomous revertive mode, the cause can be determined from bits 1, 4, 5, 6 and 7. Bit 5 is set to indicate
Active reference change. If Bit6 is set then the cause of the reference change is Loss of Active Reference. If Bit 7 is set then the cause of
the reference change is a Loss of Lock alarm on the active reference. If Bit 1 is set then the cause of the reference change is the
availability of a higher priority reference.
Note: The DPLL Mode Status Change bit (Bit 4) is also set to indicate a change in DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register, during an interrupt
caused by a reference change. The data in DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register however is not useful in determining the cause of a reference
change. This is because bits0-2 of this register always reflects the status of the current active reference and hence cannot be used to
determine the status of the last active reference.
Interrupts in Manual Mode: In manual operating mode, when the active reference fails due to a Loss of Signal or Loss of Lock alarm, an
interrupt is generated. For example, in case of a Loss of Signal, bits 4 and 6 of INTR_EVENT (0x12) register would be set to indicate
Loss of Signal and DPLL Mode Status Change. The user may choose to read the DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register, though in manual
mode bit6 of INTR_EVENT (0x12) register is a mirror of bit 0 of DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register. This holds true for a Loss of Lock alarm,
where bit 7 of INTR_EVENT (0x12) register is a mirror of bit 1 of DPLL_STATUS (0x11) register.

Required External Components
1. Place series resistors (33 ohms) on all reference inputs (Pins 4 - 7).
2. Place series resistors (33 ohms) on SPI_IN and SPI_CLK inputs (Pins 21, 22).
3. Place one .01uF and one 47-100uF capacitor at the input power pin (Pin 23).
PCB Layout Recommendations

VPN
Orient module so airflow is parallel along the header strips (pins).
Place de-coupling and/or filter components as close to module pins as possible.
Do not place any components directly beneath the module on the topside of the host PCB.
Ensure that only clean and well-regulated power is supplied to the module.
Isolate power and ground inputs to the module from noisy sources.
Provide power and ground connections through a 0.050" wide trace (minimum) using 1-oz. Cu or equivalent copper feature (i.e.
internal plane, copper area fill, etc.).
7. Keep module signals away from sensitive or noisy analog and digital circuitry.
8. Avoid split ground planes as high-frequency return currents may be affected.
9. Allow extra spacing between traces of high-frequency inputs and outputs.
10.Keep all traces as short as possible - avoid meandering trace paths.
11.Avoid routing signals directly beneath the module on the topside of the host PCB.
12.If possible, provide a copper area directly beneath the module on the topside of the host PCB. Connect this copper area to
ground.
13.It is recommended that the connections of the JTAG, VPP and VPN pins be routed to pads, preferably in a SIL pattern as shown
in Figure 12 below. It is recommended to use 0.1” center to center spacing.

Optional Socket Mounting Recommendations
Mating sockets may be used if permanent installation of the SM3 module is not desired. Two possible sources for these sockets
include:
1.
Samtec, "Low Profile Socket Strips", SL Series, PN SL-114-G-19. (http://www.samtec.com/)
2.
Mill-Max, "Single-In-Line Sockets", 315 Series, PN 315-xx-114-41-001. (http://www.mill-max.com/)
The SM3 requires two 14-pin sockets. The optional dual footprint configuration shown in Figure 13 requires one 14-pin and two
16-pin sockets.

Optional SM3/SM3E Dual Footprint
A dual footprint configuration may be used when designing a host circuit board containing the Connor Winfield SM3 or SM3E
modules. The smaller SM3 contains a subset of the signal pins found on the larger SM3E in locations which allow for a simple
dual footprint arrangement like the one shown in Figure 13.

Figure 13
The modules shown in Figure 13 are arranged in a left-justified fashion. Notice that right justified or center justified (with an
additional column of SM3 pins) arrangements are also possible, depending on the designer's preference.
Placement of external components
1.
Place series resistors (33 ohms) at the source of all reference inputs (SM3 Pins 4 - 7, SM3E Pins 4-7 & 15-18).
2.
Place series resistors (33 ohms) at the source of SPI_IN and SPI_CLK inputs (SM3 Pins 21,22, SM3E Pins 25 & 26).
3.
Place one .01uF and one 47-100uF capacitor at the input power pin (SM3 Pin 23, SM3E Pin 27).
4.
One 4.7uF (25V) capacitor is required at the VPP pin (SM3 & SM3E Pin 14).
5.
One 4.7uF (25V) capacitor is required at the VPN pin (SM3 Pin 15, SM3E Pin 19).
Be sure to consult Connor Winfield's respective datasheets for additional mechanical, electrical, footprint and keep-out information.
