2.5V Differential LVDS Clock Divider and
Fanout Buffer
8T74S208A-01
DATA SHEET
General Description
The 8T74S208A-01 is a high-performance differential LVDS clock
divider and fanout buffer. The device is designed for the frequency
division and signal fanout of high-frequency, low phase-noise clocks.
The 8T74S208A-01 is characterized to operate from a 2.5V power
supply. Guaranteed output-to-output and part-to-part skew
characteristics make the 8T74S208A-01 ideal for those clock
distribution applications demanding well-defined performance and
repeatability. The integrated input termination resistors make
interfacing to the reference source easy and reduce passive
component count. Each output can be individually enabled or
disabled in the high-impedance state controlled by a I
2
C register. On
power-up, all outputs are disabled.

Input Frequency Divider Operation
The FSEL1 and FSEL0 control pins configure the input frequency
divider. In the default state (FSEL[1:0] are set to logic 0:0 or left open)
the output frequency is equal to the input frequency (divide-by-1).
The other FSEL[1:0] settings configure the input divider to
divide-by-2, 4 or 8, respectively.
8T74S208A-01 is a combination of a 5-bit fixed addresses and two
variable bits which are set by the hardware pins ADR[1:0] (binary
11010, ADR1, ADR0). Bit 0 of slave address is used by the bus
controller to select either the read or write mode. The hardware pins
ADR1 and ADR0 and should be individually set by the user to avoid
address conflicts of multiple 8T74S208A-01 devices on the same
bus.

Output Enable Operation
The output enable/disable state of each individual differential output
Qx, nQx can be set by the content of the I
2
C register (see
Table 3C).
A logic zero to an I
2
C bit in register 0 enables the corresponding
differential output, while a logic one disables the differential output
(see
Table 3B).
After each power cycle, the device resets all I
2
C bits
(Dn) to its default state (logic 1) and all Qx, nQx outputs are disabled.
After the first valid I
2
C write, the output enable state is controlled by
the I
2
C register. Setting and changing the output enable state through
the I
2
C interface is asynchronous to the input reference clock.

START (S)
– defined as high-to-low transition on SDA while holding
SCL HIGH.
DATA
– between START and STOP cycles, SDA is synchronous with
SCL. Data may change only when SCL is LOW and must be stable
when SCL is HIGH.
ACKNOWLEDGE (A)
– SDA is driven LOW before the SCL rising
edge and held LOW until the SCL falling edge.

– defined as low-to-high transition on SDA while holding
SCL HIGH

C Interface Protocol
The 8T74S208A-01 uses an I
2
C slave interface for writing and
reading the device configuration to and from the on-chip
configuration registers. This device uses the standard I
2
C write
format for a write transaction, and a standard I
2
C read format for a
read transaction.
Figure 1
defines the I
2
C elements of the standard
I
2
C transaction. These elements consist of a start bit, data bytes, an
acknowledge or Not-Acknowledge bit and the stop bit. These
elements are arranged to make up the complete I
2
C transactions as
shown in
Figure 1
and
