AV9155C-44 - Low Cost 20-Pin Frequency Generator

Integrated Circuit Systems 2008/08/22 09:35

General Description
The AV9155C-44 is a low cost frequency generator designed specifically for desktop and  notebook PC applications with either 3.3V or 5.0V power supply voltage.
Its CPU clocks provide all necessary CPU frequencies for 286, 386 and 486 systems, including support for the latest speeds of processors.
The device uses a 14.318 MHz crystal to generate the CPU and all peripheral clocks for integrated desktop motherboards.
The dual 14.318 MHz clock outputs allows one output for the system and one to be the input to an ICS graphics frequency generator such as the AV9194.
The CPU clock offers the unique feature of smooth, glitchfree transitions from one frequency to the next, making this ideal device to use whenever slowing the CPU speed.
The AV9155C-44 makes a gradual transition between frequencies, so that it obeys the Intel cycle-to-cycle timing specification for 486 systems.
The simultaneous 2X and 1X CPU clocks offer controlled skew to within 1.5ns (max) of each other.

Features
*Compatible with 286, 386, and 486 CPUs
*Supports turbo modes
*Generates communications clock, keyboard clock, floppy disk clock, system reference clock, bus clock and CPU clock
*Output enable tristates outputs
*Up to 100 MHz at 5V or 3.3V
*20-pin DIP or SOIC
*All loop filter components internal
*Skew-controlled 2X and 1X CPU clocks
*Power-down option

ICS87993I - 1-TO-5 DIFFERENTIAL-TO-3.3V LVPECL PLL CLOCK DRIVER W/DYNAMIC CLOCK SWITCH

Integrated Circuit Systems 2008/07/10 09:25

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ICS87993I is a PLL clock driver designed specifically for redundant clock tree designs.
The device receives two differential LVPECL clock signals from which it generates 5 new differential LVPECL clock outputs.
Two of the output pairs regenerate the input signal frequency and phase while the other three pairs generate 2x, phase aligned clock outputs.
External PLL feedback is used to also provide zero delay buffer performance.
The ICS87993I Dynamic Clock Switch (DCS) circuit continuously monitors both input CLK signals.
Upon detection of a failure (CLK stuck HIGH or LOW for at least 1 period), the INP_BAD for that CLK will be latched (H).
If that CLK is the primary clock, the DCS will switch to the good secondary clock and phase/frequency alignment will occur with minimal output phase disturbance.
The typical phase bump caused by a failed clock is eliminated.

FEATURES
* 5 differential 3.3V LVPECL outputs
* Selectable differential clock inputs
* CLKx, nCLKx pair can accept the following differential input levels: LVPECL, LVDS, LVHSTL, HCSL, SSTL
* VCO range: 200MHz to 500MHz
* External feedback for “zero delay” clock regeneration with configurable frequencies
* Cycle-to-cycle jitter (RMS): 20ps (maximum)
* Output skew: 70ps (maximum), within one bank
* 3.3V supply voltage
* -40°C to 85°C ambient operating temperature
* Pin compatible with MPC993
