Pin Description
Reference Input:
The output signals QA0:3 through QB0:3 will be synchronized to
this signal unless the device is programmed to bypass the PLL.
Feedback Input:
When programmed to zero delay buffer mode, this input must be
fed by one of the outputs (QA0:3 or QB0:3) to ensure proper functionality. If the trace
between FBIN and the output pin being used for feedback is equal in length to the
traces between the outputs and the signal destinations, then the signals received at
the destinations will be synchronized to the REF signal input.
Outputs from Bank A:
The frequency of the signals provided by these pins is deter-
mined by the feedback signal connected to FBIN, and the specific W152 option being
used. See
Table 2.
Outputs from Bank B:
The frequency of the signals provided by these pins is deter-
mined by the feedback signal connected to FBIN, and the specific W152 option being
used. See
Table 2.
Power Connections:
Connect to 3.3V. Use ferrite beads to help reduce noise for
optimal jitter performance.

Overview
The W152 products are eight-output zero delay buffers. A
Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) is used to take a time-varying signal
and provide eight copies of that same signal out. The external
feedback to the PLL provides outputs in phase with the refer-
ence inputs.
Internal dividers exist in some options allowing the user to get
a simple multiple (/2, x2, x4) of the reference input, for details
see
Table 1.
Because the outputs are separated into two
banks, it is possible to provide some combination of these mul-
tiples at the same time.
Functional Description
Logic inputs provide the user the ability to turn off one or both
banks of clocks when not in use, as described in
Table 2.
Dis-
abling a bank of unused outputs will reduce jitter and power
consumption, and will also reduce the amount of EMI gener-
ated by the W152.
These same inputs allow the user to bypass the PLL entirely
if so desired. When this is done, the device no longer acts as
a zero delay buffer, it simply reverts to a standard eight-output
clock driver.
The W152 PLL enters an auto power-down mode when there
are no rising edges on the REF input. In this mode, all outputs
are three-stated and the PLL is turned off.

Spread Aware
Many systems being designed now utilize a technology called
Spread Spectrum Frequency Timing Generation. Cypress has
been one of the pioneers of SSFTG development, and we de-
signed this product so as not to filter off the Spread Spectrum
feature of the Reference input, assuming it exists. When a
zero delay buffer is not designed to pass the SS feature
through, the result is a significant amount of tracking skew
which may cause problems in systems requiring synchroniza-
tion.
For more details on Spread Spectrum timing technology,
please see the Cypress application note titled, “EMI Suppres-
sion Techniques with Spread Spectrum Frequency Timing
Generator (SSFTG) ICs.”

Note:
3. Pin 16 needs to be connected to one of the outputs from either bank A or bank B, it should not be connected to both. Pins 2 and 10 are shown here as
examples. None of the outputs should be considered as preferred for the feedback path.
How to Implement Zero Delay
Typically, zero delay buffers (ZDBs) are used because a de-
signer wants to provide multiple copies of a clock signal in
phase with each other. The whole concept behind ZDBs is that
the signals at the destination chips are all going HIGH at the
same time as the input to the ZDB. In order to achieve this,
layout must compensate for trace length between the ZDB and
the target devices. The method of compensation is described
below.
External feedback is the trait that allows for this compensation.
The PLL on the ZDB will cause the feedback signal to be in
phase with the reference signal. When laying out the board,
match the trace lengths between the output being used for
feedback and the FBIN input to the PLL.
If it is desirable to either add a little delay, or slightly precede
the input signal, this may also be affected by either making the
trace to the FBIN pin a little shorter or a little longer than the
traces to the devices being clocked.
some other device. This implementation can be applied to any
device (ASIC, multiple output clock buffer/driver, etc.) which is
put into the feedback path.
Referring to
Figure 2,
if the traces between the ASIC/buffer
and the destination of the clock signal(s) (A) are equal in length
to the trace between the buffer and the FBIN pin, the signals
at the destination(s) device will be driven HIGH at the same
time the Reference clock provided to the ZDB goes HIGH.
Synchronizing the other outputs of the ZDB to the outputs form
the ASIC/Buffer is more complex however, as any propagation
delay in the ASIC/Buffer must be accounted for.

Multiple Supplies:
The voltage on any input or I/O pin cannot exceed the power pin during power-up. Power supply sequencing is NOT required.
4. Input frequency is limited by output frequency range and input to output frequency multiplication factor (which is determined by circuit configuration). See
Table 1.
5. Longer input rise and fall time will degrade skew and jitter performance.
6. All AC specifications are measured with a 50

9. For the higher drive -11 and -12, the load is 20 pF.
10. For frequencies above 25 MHz CY - CY = 125 ps.
