DESCRIPTION
The PL133-47 is an advanced fanout buffer design for
high performance, low-power, small form factor applica-
tions. The PL133-47 accepts a reference clock input from
DC to 150MHz and provides 4 outputs of the same fre-
quency.
The PL133-47 is offered in a SOP-8L package and it offers
the best phase noise, additive jitter performance, and low-
est power consumption of any comparable IC.

LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS
The following guidelines are to assist you with a performance optimized PCB d esign:
Signal Integrity and Termination
Considerations
- Keep traces short!
- Trace = Inductor. With a capacitive load this equals
ringing!
- Long trace = Transmission Line. Without proper termi-
nation this will cause reflections ( looks like ringing ).
- Design long traces (> 1 inch) as “striplines” or
“microstrips” with defined impedance.
- Match trace at one side to avoid refl ections bouncing
back and forth.
Decoupling and Power Supply
Considerations
- Place decoupling capacitors as close as possible
to the VDD pin(s) to limit noise from the power
supply
- Addition of a ferrite bead in series with VDD can
help prevent noise from other board sources
- Value of decoupling capacitor is frequency de-
pendant. Typical values to use are 0.1
F
for de-
signs using frequencies < 50MHz and 0.01F for
designs using frequencies > 50MHz.
( Typical buffer impedance 20 ohm)
Typical CMOS termination
Place Series Resistor as close as possible to CMOS output
CMOS Output Buffer
To CMOS Input
50 ohm line
Connect a 33 ohm series resistor at each of the output clocks to
enhance the stability of the output signal

When a buffer is used to pass a signal then the buffer will add a little bit of its own noise. The phase noise on the output of the
buffer will be a little bit more than the phase noise in the input signal. To quantify the noise addition in the buffer we compare the
Phase Jitter numbers from the input and the output. The difference is called "Additive Phase Jitter". The formula for the Additive
Phase Jitter is as follows:
Additive Phase Jitter = (Output Phase Jitter) - (Input Phase Jitter)
