700MHZ, CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR-TODIFFERENTIAL LVDS FREQUENCY SYNTHESIZER
ICS8442B
DATA SHEET
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The ICS8442B is a general purpose, dual output Crystal-toDifferential LVDS High Frequency Synthesizer . The ICS8442B
has a selectable TEST_CLK or crystal input. The TEST_CLK
input accepts LVCMOS or LVTTL input levels and translates
them to LVDS levels. The VCO operates at a frequency range
of 250MHz to 700MHz.The VCO frequency is programmed in
steps equal to the value of the input reference or crystal frequency. The VCO and output frequency can be programmed
using the serial or parallel interface to the configuration logic.
The low phase noise characteristics of the ICS8442B makes
it an ideal clock source for Gigabit Ethernet and Sonet applications.

700MHz, CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR-TO-DIFFERENTIAL LVDS FREQUENCY SYNTHESIZER
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
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
NOTE: The functional description that follows describes operation 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 ICS8442B features a fully integrated PLL and therefore requires no external components for setting the loop
bandwidth. 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 250MHz to 700MHz. The output of
the M divider is also applied to the phase detector.
The M value and the required values of M0 through M8 are
shown in Table 3B, Programmable VCO Frequency Function
Table. Valid M values for which the PLL will achieve lock for a
25MHz reference are defined as 10 ≤ M ≤ 28. The frequency
out is defined as follows: FOUT = fVCO = fxtal x M
N
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 N output divider when S_LOAD transitions from LOW-to-HIGH. The M
divide and N output divide values are latched on the HIGH-toLOW transition of S_LOAD. If S_LOAD is held HIGH, data at
the S_DATA input is passed directly to the M divider and N
output divider on each rising edge of S_CLOCK. The serial
mode can be used to program the M and N bits and test bits
T1 and T0. The internal registers T0 and T1 determine the state
of the TEST output as follows:
T1 T0
TEST Output
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
LVDS output buffers. The divider provides a 50% output duty cycle.
The programmable features of the ICS8442B support two
input modes to program the M divider and N output divider.
The two input operational modes are parallel and serial.
Figure 1 shows the timing diagram for each mode. In parallel mode, the nP_LOAD input is initially LOW. The data on
inputs M0 through M8 and N0 and N1 is passed directly to
the M divider and N output divider. On the LOW-to-HIGH
transition of the nP_LOAD input, the data is latched and
the M divider remains loaded until the next LOW transition
on nP_LOAD or until a serial event occurs. As a result, the
M and N bits can be hardwired to set the M divider and N

POWER SUPPLY FILTERING TECHNIQUES
As in any high speed analog circuitry, the power supply pins
are vulnerable to random noise. The ICS8442B provides
separate power supplies to isolate any high switching noise
from the outputs to the internal PLL. VDD and VDDA, should
be individually connected to the power supply plane through
vias, and bypass capacitors should be used for each pin. To
achieve optimum jitter performance, better power supply
isolation is required. Figure 2 illustrates how a 10Ω along
|with a 10μF and a .01μF bypass capacitor should be
connected to each VDDA pin.

CRYSTAL INPUT INTERFACE
A crystal can be characterized for either series or parallel mode
operation. The ICS8442B has a built-in crystal oscillator circuit.
This interface can accept either a series or parallel crystal without
additional components and generate frequencies with accuracy
suitable for most applications. Additional accuracy can be
achieved by adding two small capacitors C1 and C2 as shown in
Figure 3. Typical results using parallel 18pF crystals are shown
in Table 10.

LVDS DRIVER TERMINATION
A general LVDS interface is shown in Figure 4. In a 100Ω differential transmission line environment, LVDS drivers require a
matched load termination of 100Ω across near the receiver in-
put. For a multiple LVDS outputs buffer, if only partial outputs
are used, it is recommended to terminate the un-used outputs.

LAYOUT GUIDELINE
The schematic of the ICS8442B layout example used in this
layout guideline is shown in Figure 6A. The ICS8442B recommended PCB board layout for this example is shown in Figure
6B. This layout example is used as a general guideline. The
layout in the actual system will depend on the selected component types, the density of the components, the density of the
traces, and the stack up of the P.C. board.

The following component footprints are used in this layout
example: All the resistors and capacitors are size 0603.
POWER
AND
traces should be routed first and should be locked prior to routing
other signal traces.
• The traces with 50Ω transmission lines TL1 and TL2 at
FOUT and nFOUT should have equal delay and run adjacent to each other. Avoid sharp angles on the clock trace.
Sharp angle turns cause the characteristic impedance to
change on the transmission lines.
GROUNDING
Place the decoupling capacitors C14 and C15 as close as possible to the power pins. If space allows, placing the decoupling
capacitor at the component side is preferred. This can reduce
unwanted inductance between the decoupling capacitor and the
power pin generated by the via.
• Keep the clock trace on same layer. Whenever possible,
avoid any vias on the clock traces. Any via on the trace
can affect the trace characteristic impedance and hence
degrade signal quality.
Maximize the pad size of the power (ground) at the decoupling
capacitor. Maximize the number of vias between power (ground)
and the pads. This can reduce the inductance between the power
(ground) plane and the component power (ground) pins.
• To prevent cross talk, avoid routing other signal traces in
parallel with the clock traces. If running parallel traces is
unavoidable, allow more space between the clock trace
and the other signal trace.
If VDDA shares the same power supply with VDD, insert the RC
filter R7, C11, and C16 in between. Place this RC filter as close
to the VDDA as possible.
CLOCK TRACES
AND
• Make sure no other signal trace is routed between the
clock trace pair.
TERMINATION
The matching termination resistors R1 and R2 should be located
as close to the receiver input pins as possible. Other termination
scheme can also be used but is not shown in this example.
The component placements, locations and orientations should
be arranged to achieve the best clock signal quality. Poor clock
signal quality can degrade the system performance or cause
system failure. In the synchronous high-speed digital system,
the clock signal is less tolerable to poor signal quality than other
signals. Any ringing on the rising or falling edge or excessive ring
back can cause system failure. The trace shape and the trace
delay might be restricted by the available space on the board and
the component location. While routing the traces, the clock signal
CRYSTAL
The crystal X1 should be located as close as possible to the pins
24 (XTAL_OUT) and 25 (XTAL_IN). The trace length between the
X1 and U1 should be kept to a minimum to avoid unwanted parasitic inductance and capacitance. Other signal traces should not
be routed near the crystal traces.
