ESCRIPTION
The ICS844008I-15 is an 8 output LVDS
Synthesizer optimized to generate PCI Express
HiPerClockS™
reference clock frequencies and is a member
of the HiPerClocks
TM
family of high performance
clock solutions from ICS. Using a 25MHz
parallel resonant crystal, the following frequencies can be
generated based on F_SEL pin: 100MHz or 125MHz. The
ICS844008I-15 uses ICS’ 3
rd
generation low phase noise
VCO technology and can achieve <1ps typical rms phase
jitter, easily meeting PCI Express jitter requirements. The
ICS844008I-15 is packaged in a 32-pin LQFP package.
