Crystal/LVCMOS-to-
LVDS/LVCMOS Frequency Synthesizer
ICS8440258-46
DATA SHEET
General Description
The ICS8440258-46 is an eight output synthesizer optimized to
generate Ethernet clocks. The device will generate 125MHz and
25MHz clocks from a 25MHz crystal with a very good jitter
performance. The ICS8440258-46 uses IDT’s 3
RD
generation low
phase noise VCO technology. The ICS8440258-46 is packaged in a
small, 5mm x 5mm VFQFN package.

Description
Differential clock outputs. LVDS interface levels.

Differential clock outputs. LVDS interface levels.
Core supply pins.
Differential clock outputs. LVDS interface levels.
Differential clock outputs. LVDS interface levels.
Single-ended clock outputs. LVCMOS/LVTTL interface levels.
Output supply pin for Q4 and Q5 LVCMOS outputs.
Output supply pin for Q6 and Q7 LVCMOS outputs.
No connect.
Analog supply pin.
PLL Bypass. When LOW, Q[0:3], nQ[0:3], Q4, Q5 is driven from the
VCO output. When HIGH, the PLL is bypassed and Q[0:3], nQ[0:3], Q4,
Q5 output frequency = reference clock frequency/N output divider.
LVCMOS/LVTTL interface levels.
Active HIGH Master Reset. When logic HIGH, the internal dividers are
reset causing the outputs to go low. When logic LOW, the internal
dividers and the outputs are enabled. LVCMOS/LVTTL interface levels.
Single-ended reference clock input. LVCMOS/LVTTL interface levels.
Selects between the crystal or REF_CLK inputs as the PLL reference
source. When HIGH, selects REF_CLK. When LOW, selects XTAL
inputs. LVCMOS/LVTTL interface levels.
Crystal oscillator interface. XTAL_OUT is the output, XTAL_IN is the
input.

NOTE: Electrical parameters are guaranteed over the specified ambient operating temperature range, which is established when the device is
mounted in a test socket with maintained transverse airflow greater than 500 lfpm. The device will meet specifications after thermal equilibrium
has been reached under these conditions.
NOTE: Device characterized with a 25MHz, 12pF quartz crystal.
NOTE 1A: Defined as skew between outputs at the same supply voltage and with equal load conditions. Measured at the differential cross
point.
