DATASHEET
QUAD PLL WITH VCXO FOR HDTV
Description
The ICS477-05 generates five high-quality,
high-frequency clock outputs including two reference
outputs from a low frequency pullable crystal. It is
designed to replace crystals and crystal oscillators in
most electronic systems.
Using Phase-Locked-Loop (PLL) techniques, the
device runs from a fundamental mode, pullable crystal.
It can replace multiple crystals and oscillators, saving
board space and cost.

External Components
The ICS477-05 requires a minimum number of external
components for proper operation.
Crystal Tuning Load Capacitors
The crystal traces should include pads for small fixed
capacitors, one between X1 and ground, and another
between X2 and ground. Stuffing of these capacitors on
the PCB is optional. The need for these capacitors is
determined at system prototype evaluation, and is
influenced by the particular crystal used (manufacture
and frequency) and by PCB layout. The typical required
capacitor value is 1 to 4 pF.
To determine the need for and value of the crystal
adjustment capacitors, you will need a PC board of your
final layout, a frequency counter capable of about 1 ppm
resolution and accuracy, two power supplies, and some
samples of the crystals which you plan to use in
production, along with measured initial accuracy for
each crystal at the specified crystal load capacitance,
CL.
To determine the value of the crystal capacitors:
1. Connect VDD of the ICS477-05 to 3.3 V. Connect pin
4 of the ICS477-05 to the second power supply. Adjust
the voltage on pin 3 to 0V. Measure and record the
frequency of the 27 MHz output.
2. Adjust the voltage on pin 4 to 3.3 V. Measure and
record the frequency of the same output.
Decoupling Capacitors
Decoupling capacitors of 0.01µF must be connected
between VDD and GND, as close to these pins as
possible. For optimum device performance, the
decoupling capacitors should be mounted on the
component side of the PCB. Avoid the use of vias in the
decoupling circuit.
Series Termination Resistor
When the PCB trace between the clock outputs and the
loads are over 1 inch, series termination should be
used. 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
.
Quartz Crystal
The ICS477-05 VCXO function consists of the external
crystal and the integrated VCXO oscillator circuit. To
assure the best system performance (frequency pull
range) and reliability, a crystal device with the
recommended parameters (shown below) must be
used, and the layout guidelines discussed in the
following section must be followed.
The frequency of oscillation of a quartz crystal is
determined by its “cut” and by the load capacitors
connected to it. The ICS477-05 incorporates on-chip
variable load capacitors that “pull” (change) the
frequency of the crystal. The crystal specified for use
with the ICS477-05 is designed to have zero frequency
error when the total of on-chip + stray capacitance is 14
pF.
The external crystal must be connected as close to the
chip as possible and should be on the same side of the
PCB as the ICS477-05. There should be no via’s
between the crystal pins and the X1 and X2 device pins.
There should be no signal traces underneath or close to
the crystal.
See application note MAN05 for complete crystal
specifications.

If the centering error is less than ±25 ppm, no
adjustment is needed. If the centering error is more than
25 ppm negative, the PC board has excessive stray
capacitance and a new PCB layout should be

considered to reduce stray capacitance. (Alternately,
the crystal may be re-specified to a higher load
capacitance. Contact ICS for details.) If the centering
error is more than 25 ppm positive, add identical fixed
centering capacitors from each crystal pin to ground.
The value for each of these caps (in pF) is given by:
External Capacitor =
2 x (centering error)/(trim sensitivity)
Trim sensitivity is a parameter which can be supplied by
your crystal vendor. If you do not know the value,
assume it is 30 ppm/pF. After any changes, repeat the
measurement to verify that the remaining error is
acceptably low (typically less than ±25 ppm).
PCB Layout Recommendations
For optimum device performance and lowest output
phase noise, the following guidelines should be
observed.
1) The 0.01µF decoupling capacitors should be
mounted on the component side of the board as close
to the VDD pins as possible. No vias should be used
between the decoupling capacitors and VDD pins. The
PCB trace to VDD pin should be kept as short as
possible, as should the PCB trace to the ground via.
2) The external crystal should be mounted just 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, the 33Ω series termination resistor
(if needed) 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. Other signal traces should be routed away
from the ICS477-05. This includes signal traces just
underneath the device, or on layers adjacent to the
ground plane layer used by the device.
Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the ICS477-05. These ratings,
which are standard values for ICS 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.
