LCK4953/L-LCK4953
Low-Voltage PLL Clock Driver
Features
■
■
■
■
■
■
Fully integrated PLL.
Output frequency up to 130 MHz in PLL mode.
Nine outputs with high-impedance disable.
32-lead TQFP.
50 ps cycle-to-cycle jitter.
Pin compatible with the
Motorola
®
MPC953 clock
driver.
The LCK4953 is fully 3.3 V compatible and requires
no external loop filter components. All control inputs
accept LVCMOS or LVTTL compatible levels while
the outputs provide LVCMOS levels with the ability to
drive terminated 50
Ω
transmission lines. For series-
terminated 50
Ω
lines, each of the LCK4953 outputs
can drive two traces giving the device an effective
fan-out of 1:18. For the optimum combination of
board density and performance, the device is
packaged in a 7 mm
×
7 mm 32-lead TQFP package.
The L-LCK4953 is a lead-free device.
Table 1. Function Table
Description
The LCK4953 is a PLL-based clock driver device
intended for high-performance clock tree designs.
The LCK4953 is 3.3 V compatible with output
frequencies of up to 130 MHz and output skews of
75 ps. The LCK4953 can meet the most demanding
timing requirements and employs on-chip voltage
regulators to minimize cycle-to-cycle jitter and phase
jitter.
The LCK4953 is ideal for use as a zero delay, low
skew, fan-out buffer due to its differential LVPECL
reference input along with an external feedback
input. The MROEB pin of the LCK4953, when driven
high, will reset the internal counters and 3-state the
output buffers. The LCK4953 has been optimized for
zero delay performance.

Power Supply Filtering
The LCK4953 is a mixed-signal product that is susceptible to random noise, especially when this noise is on the
power supply pins. To isolate the output buffer switching from the internal phase-locked loop, the LCK4953
provides separate power supplies for the phase-locked loop (V
DD
A) and for the output buffers (V
DD
). In a digital
system environment, besides this isolation technique, it is highly recommended that both V
DDA
and V
DD
power
supplies be filtered to reduce the random noise as much as possible.
Figure 3 illustrates a typical power supply filter scheme. A filter for the LCK4953 should be designed to target noise
in the 100 kHz to 10 MHz range, due to the LCK4953’s susceptibility to noise with spectral content in this range.
The RC filter in Figure 3 will provide a broadband filter with approximately –40 dB attenuation for noise with
spectral content above 20 kHz. More elaborate power supply schemes may be used to achieve increased power
supply noise filtering.

Driving Transmission Lines
The LCK4953 clock driver was designed to drive high-speed clock terminals in a terminated transmission line
environment. Point-to-point distribution of signals is a common method in most high-performance clock networks.
Either series-terminated or parallel-terminated transmission lines can be used in a point-to-point scheme. The
parallel technique terminates the signal at the end of a line with a 50
Ω
resistance to V
DD
/2. This draws a fairly high
level of dc current. Due to this aspect, only a single terminated line can be driven by each output of the LCK4953
clock driver. However, for the series-terminated case, there is no dc current draw. Therefore, the outputs are
capable of driving multiple series-terminated lines.
Figure 4 illustrates an output driving a single series-terminated line.

Figure 4. Single Transmission Line
In Figure 4, because the output buffer has an impedance of 14
Ω,
the series resistance (R

) is set at 36
Ω.
This
ensures that the total impedance is matched with the 50
Ω
transmission line.
Figure 5 illustrates an output driving two series-terminated lines.

In Figure 5, the two series resistors (R

are set at 22
Ω
because the 14
Ω
output buffer can be viewed as two 28
Ω
resistors in parallel. Accordingly, for each transmission line, the impedance is well matched.
