SM843256
10 Gigabit Ethernet and SONET, 6 output,
Ultra-Low Jitter LVPECL Frequency
Synthesizer
General Description
The SM843256 provides a low-noise timing solution for
high speed, high accuracy synthesis of clock signals.
Common applications include SONET, Gigabit Ethernet,
10 Gigabit Ethernet, and similar networking standards. It
includes a unique power reduction methodology, along
with a patented RotaryWave
TM
architecture that provides a
very stable clock with very low noise.
Power supplies of either 3.3V or 2.5V are supported, with
superior jitter and phase noise performance. The device
synthesizes different low noise LVPECL output
frequencies such as 125MHz, 156.25MHz, 312.5MHz, and
625MHz for Ethernet applications; 77.76MHz, 155.52MHz,
311.04MHz, and 622.08MHz for SONET applications. The
crystal reference frequencies used include 25MHz and
19.44Mhz for Ethernet and SONET applications,
respectively.
The SM843256 is an excellent replacement for IDT Femto-
clocks, with improved accuracy, power consumption,
waveform integrity, and jitter.

Notes:
1. Permanent device damage may occur if absolute maximum ratings are exceeded. This is a stress rating only and functional operation is not implied
at conditions other than those detailed in the operational sections of this data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended
periods may affect device reliability.
2. The data sheet limits are not guaranteed if the device is operated beyond the operating ratings.
3. Package thermal resistance assumes exposed pad is soldered (or equivalent) to the devices most negative potential on the PCB.
4. The circuit is designed to meet the DC specifications shown in the above table after thermal equilibrium has been established.
