PL60708X
PCIe Octal, Ultra-Low Jitter,
HCSL Frequency Synthesizer
General Description
The PL607081 and PL607082 are members of the PCI
Express family of devices from Micrel and provide
extremely low-noise spread-spectrum clocks for PCI
Express requirements.
The devices operate from a 3.3V or 2.5V power supply
and synthesize eight HCSL output clocks. The PL607081
synthesizes 25MHz, 100MHz, or 200MHz frequencies and
the PL607082 synthesizes 25MHz, 125MHz, or 250MHz
frequencies. The PL60708x devices accept a 25MHz
crystal or LVCMOS reference clock.
Datasheets and support documentation are available on
Micrel’s web site at:
www.micrel.com.

EMI Reduction
Spread-spectrum modulation reduces the emission of
spectral components in the clock signal. The spectrum plot
on the right (Figure
1)
shows measurement results with the
two spread settings versus no spread. This plot refers to
the 11th harmonic in a 100MHz clock, at 1.1GHz. The
scale is normalized to the strength of this spur without
spread. The plot shows about 21dB reduction for
0.25%
spread magnitude and 24dB for
0.50%
spread magnitude.
The plot also shows
downwards.
