ESCRIPTION
The ICS87946I is a low skew, ÷1, ÷2 LVCMOS
Clock Generator and a member of the
HiPerClockS™
HiPerClockS™ family of High Performance Clock
Solutions from ICS. The ICS87946I has two select-
able single ended clock inputs. The single ended
clock inputs accept LVCMOS or LVTTL input levels. The low
impedance LVCMOS outputs are designed to drive 50Ω series
or parallel terminated transmission lines. The effective fanout
can be increased from 10 to 20 by utilizing the ability of the
outputs to drive two series terminated lines.
,&6
The divide select inputs, DIV_SELx, control the output fre-
quency of each bank. The outputs can be utilized in the ÷1,
÷2 or a combination of ÷1 and ÷2 modes. The master reset
input, MR/nOE, resets the internal frequency dividers and also
controls the active and high impedance states of all outputs.
The ICS87946I is characterized at 3.3V core/3.3V output. Guar-
anteed output and part-to-part skew characteristics make the
ICS87946I ideal for those clock distribution applications demand-
ing well defined performance and repeatability.
