DSC591-03
Crystal-less
TM
Clock Generator
for Baseboard Management Controller (BMC)
General Description
The DSC591-03 is a two output Crystal-less
TM
clock generator.
It implements Discera’s
proven silicon MEMS technology to provide
excellent jitter, stability and reliability. The
device incorporates features useful in servers
and other applications that employ the
Baseboard Management Controller (BMC),
such as the ability for the two LVCMOS
outputs to drive up to four loads. Three pins
are dedicated for selecting various drive
strengths per LVCMOS output. Independent
drive strength control facilitates signal
integrity optimization as well as the reduction
in EMI and power supply ripple noise.
The DSC591-03 is packaged in a 14-pin
3.2x2.5 mm QFN package and available in
temperature
grades
from
extended
commercial to automotive.

DSC591-03
Low-Jitter Configurable Dual CMOS Oscillator
Operational Description
The DSC591-03 is a BMC clock generator
consisting of a MEMS resonator and a support
PLL IC.
The device features two CMOS
outputs, dual 50MHz or 50 and 25MHz, as
chosen by the frequency select (FS) pin 7. See
Table 2. There is also independent control of
the output voltage levels. The high voltage
level of CLK1 is equal to the main supply
voltage, VDD (pin 13). VDD0 (pin 12) sets
the high voltage level of CLK0. VDD0 must be
equal to or less than VDD at all times to
insure proper operation. VDD0 can be as low
as 1.65V.
When Enable (pin 1) is floated or connected to
VDD, the DSC591-03 is in operational mode.
Driving Enable to ground will tri-state both
output drivers (hi-impedance mode).
The DSC591-03 features programmable drive
strength for each output. Using six control
pins (C0S[2:0] & C1S[2:0]), output drive
strength can be adjusted to match circuit
board impedances to reduce power supply
noise, overshoot/undershoot and EMI. Table
1 displays typical drive levels at VDD=3.6V
and room temperature.
