Z9973
3.3V, 125MHz, Multi-Output Zero Delay Buffer
Description
The Z9973 has an integrated PLL that provides low skew and low jitter clock outputs for high performance
microprocessors. Three independent banks of four outputs as well as an independent PLL feedback output, FB_OUT,
provide exceptional flexibility for possible output configurations. The PLL is ensured stable operation given that the VCO
is configured to run between 200 MHz to 480 MHz. This allows a wide range of output frequencies up to125MHz.
The phase detector compares the input reference clock to the external feedback input. For normal operation, the
external feedback input, FB_IN, is connected to the feedback output, FB_OUT. The internal VCO is running at multiples
of the input reference clock set by FB_SEL(0:2) and VCO_SEL select inputs, refer to Frequency Table. The VCO
frequency is then divided down to provide the required output frequencies. These dividers are set by SELA(0,1),
SELB(0,1), SELC(0,1) select inputs, see table 2 below. For situations were the VCO needs to run at relatively low
frequencies and hence might not be stable, assert VCO_SEL low to divide the VCO frequency by 2. This will maintain
the desired output relationships, but will provide an enhanced PLL lock range.
The Z9973 is also capable of providing inverted output clocks. When INV_CLK is asserted high, QC2 and QC3 output
clocks are inverted. These clocks could be used as feedback outputs to the Z9973 or a second PLL device to generate
early or late clocks for a specific design. This inversion does not affect the output to output skew.

Z9973
3.3V, 125MHz, Multi-Output Zero Delay Buffer
Zero Delay Buffer
When used as a zero delay buffer the Z9973 will likely be in a nested clock tree application. For these applications the
Z9973 offers a low voltage PECL clock input as a PLL reference. This allows the user to use LVPECL as the primary
clock distribution device to take advantage of its far superior skew performance. The Z9973 then can lock onto the
LVPECL reference and translate with near zero delay to low skew outputs.
By using one of the outputs as a feedback to the PLL the propagation delay through the device is eliminated. The PLL
works to align the output edge with the input reference edge thus producing a near zero delay. The reference frequency
affects the static phase offset of the PLL and thus the relative delay between the inputs and outputs. Because the static
phase offset is a function of the reference clock the Tpd of the Z9973 is a function of the configuration used.
Glitch-Free Output Frequency Transitions
Customarily when output buffers have their internal counter’s changed “on the fly’ their output clock periods will:
A. Contain short or “runt” clock periods. These are clock cycles in which the cycle(s) are shorter in period than either
the old or new frequency that is being transitioned to.
B. Contain stretched clock periods. These are clock cycles in which the cycle(s) are longer in period than either the old
or new frequency that is being transitioned to.
This device specifically includes logic to guarantee that runt and stretched clock pulses do not occur if the device logic
levels of any or all of the following pins changed “on the fly” while it is operating: SELA, SELB, SELC, and VCO_SEL.

SYNC Output
In situations were output frequency relationships are not integer multiples of each other the SYNC output provides a
signal for system synchronization. The Z9973 monitors the relationship between the QA and the QC output clocks. It
provides a low going pulse, one period in duration, one period prior to the coincident rising edges of the QA and QC
outputs. The duration and the placement of the pulse depend on the higher of the QA and QC output frequencies. The
following timing diagram illustrates various waveforms for the SYNC output. Note that the SYNC output is defined for all
possible combinations of the QA and QC outputs even though under some relationships the lower frequency clock could
be used as a synchronizing signal.

Power Management
The individual output enable / freeze control of the Z9973 allows the user to implement unique power management
schemes into the design. The outputs are stopped in the logic ‘0’ state when the freeze control bits are activated. The
serial input register contains one programmable freeze enable bit for 12 of the 14 output clocks. The QC0 and FB_OUT
outputs can not be frozen with the serial port, this avoids any potential lock up situation should an error occur in the
loading of the serial data. An output is frozen when a logic ‘0’ is programmed and enabled when a logic ‘1’ is written. The
enabling and freezing of individual outputs is done in such a manner as to eliminate the possibility of partial “runt” clocks.
The serial input register is programmed through the SDATA input by writing a logic ‘0’ start bit followed by 12 NRZ freeze
enable bits. The period of each SDATA bit equals the period of the free running SCLK signal. The SDATA is sampled on
the rising edge of SCLK.
