DATASHEET
T1/E1 CLOCK MULTIPLIER
Description
The ICS548-05 is a low-cost, low-jitter,
high-performace clock synthesizer designed to
produce x16 and x24 clocks from T1 and E1
frequencies. Using IDT’s patented analog/digital
Phase- Locked Loop (PLL) techniques, the device uses
a crystal or clock input to synthesize popular
communications frequencies. Power down modes allow
the chip to turn off completely, or the PLL and clock
output to be turned off separately.
IDT manuafactures the largest variety of
communications clock synthesizers for all applications.
Consult IDT to eliminate VCXO’s, crystals, and
oscillators from your board.

Application Information
Series Termination Resistor
Clock output traces should use series termination. To
series terminate a 50Ω trace (a commonly used trace
impedance), place a 33Ω resistor in series with the
clock line, as close to the clock output pin as possible.
The nominal impedance of the clock output is 20Ω
.
PCB Layout Recommendations
For optimum device performance and lowest output
phase noise, the following guidelines should be
observed.
1) Each 0.01µF decoupling capacitor should be
mounted on the component side of the board as close
to the VDD pin as possible. No vias should be used
between decoupling capacitor and VDD pin. The PCB
trace to VDD pin should be kept as short as possible, as
should the PCB trace to the ground via. Distance of the
ferrite bead and bulk decoupling from the device is less
critical.
2) The external crystal should be mounted next to the
device with short traces. The X1 and X2 traces should
not be routed next to each other with minimum spaces,
instead they should be separated and away from other
traces.
3) To minimize EMI and obtain the best signal integrity,
the 33Ω series termination resistor should be placed
close to the clock output.
4) An optimum layout is one with all components on the
same side of the board, minimizing vias through other
signal layers (the ferrite bead and bulk decoupling
capacitor can be mounted on the back). Other signal
traces should be routed away from the ICS548-05. This
includes signal traces just underneath the device, or on
layers adjacent to the ground plane layer used by the
device.
Decoupling Capacitors
As with any high performance mixed-signal IC, the
ICS548-05 must be isolated from system power supply
noise to perform optimally.
Decoupling capacitors of 0.01µF should be connected
between each VDD and GND on pins 3 and 5, as close
to the device as possible Other VDD’s can be
connected to pin 3. If reFOUT is not used, then REFEN
should be connected directly to ground.
Crystal Load Capacitors
If a crystal is used, the device crystal connections
should include pads for capacitors from X1 to ground
and from X2 to ground. These capacitors are used to
adjust the stray capacitance of the board to match the
nominally required crystal load capacitance. To reduce
possible noise pickup, use very short PCB traces (and
no vias) been the crystal and device.
The value of the load capacitors can be roughly
determined by the formula C = 2(C
L
- 6) where C is the
load capacitor connected to X1 and X2, and C
L
is the
specified value of the load capacitance for the crystal. A
typical crystal C
L
is 18pF, so C = 2(18 - 6) = 24pF.
Because these capacitors adjust the stray capacitance
of the PCB, check the output frequency using your final
layout to see if the value of C should be changed. For a
clock input, leave X2 unconnected (floating).

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the ICS548-05. These ratings,
which are standard values for IDT commercially rated parts, are stress ratings only. Functional operation of
the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of the
specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods can
affect product reliability. Electrical parameters are guaranteed only over the recommended operating
temperature range.
