frequencies for a wide variety of applications. The
ICS843034-06 has a 4:1 input Multiplexer from
which the following inputs can be selected: one
differential input, one single-ended input, or two
crystal oscillators, thus making the device ideal for frequency
translation or frequency generation. The ICS843034-06 has
dual LVPECL outputs that may be programmed for ÷2, ÷4 or
÷5 from the VCO frequency. The ICS843034-06 also supplies
a buffered copy of the reference clock or crystal frequency on
the single-ended REF_OUT pin which can be enabled or
disabled (disabled by default). The output frequency can be
programmed using either a serial or parallel programming
interface. This device supports Spread Spectrum Clocking
(SSC) for EMI reduction.

ESCRIPTION
NOTE: The functional description that follows describes opera-
tion using a 25MHz crystal. Valid PLL loop divider values for
different crystal or input frequencies are defined in the Input
Frequency Characteristics, Table 5, NOTE 1.
The ICS843034-06 features a fully integrated PLL and there-
fore requires no external components for setting the loop band-
width. A fundamental crystal is used as the input to the on-
chip oscillator. The output of the oscillator is fed into the phase
detector. A 25MHz crystal provides a 25MHz phase detector
reference frequency. The VCO of the PLL operates over a range
of 560MHz to 750MHz. The output of the M divider is also
applied to the phase detector.
The phase detector and the M divider force the VCO output
frequency to be M times the reference frequency by adjusting the
VCO control voltage. Note that for some values of M (either too
high or too low), the PLL will not achieve lock. The output of the
VCO is scaled by a divider prior to being sent to each of the
LVPECL output buffers. The divider provides a 50% output duty
cycle.
The ICS843034-06 supports either serial or parallel programming
modes to program the M feedback divider and N output divider.
Figure 1
shows the timing diagram for each mode. In parallel
mode, the nP_LOAD input is initially LOW. The data on the M and
NA inputs are passed directly to the M divider and N output divid-
ers. On the LOW-to-HIGH transition of the nP_LOAD input, the
data is latched and the M and N dividers remain loaded until the
next LOW transition on nP_LOAD or until a serial event occurs.
As a result, the M and NA bits can be hardwired to set the M
divider and NA output divider to a specific default state that will
automatically occur during power-up. The TEST output is LOW
when operating in the parallel input mode. The relationship
between the VCO frequency, the crystal frequency and the M
divider is defined as follows:
fVCO = fxtal x M
The M value and the required values of M0 through M8 are shown
in Table 4B to program the VCO Frequency Function Table. Valid
M values for which the PLL will achieve lock for a 25MHz refer-
ence are defined as 23
≤
M
≤
30. The frequency out is defined as
follows:
FOUT = fVCO = fxtal x M
N
Serial operation occurs when nP_LOAD is HIGH and S_LOAD
is LOW. The shift register is loaded by sampling the S_DATA
bits with the rising edge of S_CLOCK. The contents of the shift
register are loaded into the M divider and NA output divider
when S_LOAD transitions from LOW-to-HIGH. The M divide
and NA output divide values are latched on the HIGH-to-LOW
transition of S_LOAD. If S_LOAD is held HIGH, data at the
S_DATA input is passed directly to the M divider and NA output
divider on each rising edge of S_CLOCK. The serial mode can
be used to program the M and NA bits and test bits T1 and T0.
The internal registers T0 and T1 determine the state of the
TEST output as follows:

ODULATION
The ICS843034-06 offers the option of a spread spectrum
modulated output clock. The spread spectrum is controlled via
4 bits in the serial bit stream. These four bits configure the
SSM to be enabled and the amount of spread modulation to be
selected. See
Table 1
for the definition of the four bits. The four
additional bits are added at the beginning of the serial data
stream and are labeled SS3, SS2, SS1 and SS0. The initial
state of SS3, SS2, SS1 and SS0 is 0, 0, 0, 0 which places the
ICS843034-06 in the mode of spread spectrum off. Addition-
ally, a parallel load will result in spread spectrum modulation
being off. The ICS843034-06 offers down-spread or center-
spread using triangle-wave modulation.
