FemtoClock® Zero Delay Buffer/ Clock
Generator for PCI Express™ and Ethernet
ICS8714004I
DATA SHEET
General Description
Features
The ICS8714004I is Zero-Delay Buffer/Frequency Multiplier with four
differential HCSL output pairs, and uses external feedback
(differential feedback input and output pairs) for “zero delay” clock
regeneration. In PCI Express and Ethernet applications, 100MHz
and 125MHz are the most commonly used reference clock
frequencies and each of the four output pairs can be independently
set for either 100MHz or 125MHz. With an output frequency range of
98MHz to 165MHz, the device is also suitable for use in a variety of
other applications such as Fibre Channel (106.25MHz) and XAUI
(156.25MHz). The M-LVDS Input/Output pair is useful in backplane
applications when the reference clock can either be local (on the
same board as the ICS8714004I) or remote via a backplane
connector. In output mode, an input from a local reference clock
applied to the CLK, nCLK input pins is translated to M-LVDS and
driven out to the MLVDS, nMLVDS pins. In input mode, the internal
M-LVDS driver is placed in a High-Impedance state using the
OE_MLVDS pin and MLVDS, nMLVDS pin then becomes an input
(e.g. from a backplane).

The ICS8714004I uses low phase noise FemtoClock technology,
thus making it ideal for such applications as PCI Express Generation
1, 2 and 3 as well as for Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and 10
Gigabit Ethernet. It is packaged in a 40-VFQFN package (6mm x
6mm).

Description
Power
Core supply pins.
Input
Active High Output Enable. When HIGH, the M-LVDS output driver is active and
provides a buffered copy of reference clock applied the CLK, nCLK input to the
MLVDS, nMLVDS output pins. The MLVDS, nMLVDS frequency equals the CLK,
nCLK frequency divided by the PDIV Divider value (selectable ÷1, ÷4, ÷5, ÷8).
When LOW, the M-LVDS output driver is placed into a High Impedance state and
the MLVDS, nMLVDS pins can accept a differential input. LVCMOS/LVTTL
interface levels.
Pullup
I/O
Non-Inverting M-LVDS input/output. The input/output state is determined by the
OE_MLVDS pin. When OE_MLVDS = HIGH, this pin is an output and drives the
non-inverting M-LVDS output. When OE_MLVDS = LOW, this pin is an input and
can accept the following differential input levels: M-LVDS, LVDS, LVPECL,
HSTL, HCSL.
I/O
Inverting M-LVDS input/output. The input/output state is determined by the
OE_MLVDS pin. When OE_MLVDS = HIGH, this pin is an output and drives the
inverting M-LVDS output. When OE_MLVDS = LOW, this pin is an input and can
accept the following differential input levels: M-LVDS, LVDS, LVPECL, HSTL,
HCSL.

FemtoCLock® Zero Delay Buffer/Clock Generator for PCI Express™ and Ethernet
ICS8714004I Data Sheet
Application Information
Overview
clock to CLK, nCLK input. The ICS8714004I must provide a 25MHz
M-LVDS clock to the backplane and also provide two local clocks:
one 100MHz HCSL output to an ASIC and one 125MHz output to the
PCI Express serdes.
The is a high performance FemtoClock Zero Delay Buffer/
Multiplier/Divider which uses external feedback for accurate clock
regeneration and low static and dynamic phase offset. It can be used
in a number different ways:
Solution: Since only two outputs are needed, the two unused outputs
can be disabled. Set OE[1:0] = 01b so that only Q0, nQ0 and Q1, nQ1
are switching. Since a 25MHz backplane clock is needed from a
125MHz reference clock, set PDIV = ÷5 and OE_MLVDS = HIGH to
enable the M-LVDS driver. 25MHz is applied to the MLVDS, nMLVDS
pins and to the phase detector input. Set FBO_DIV = 4 and FBI_DIV
= 5 which makes the VCO run at 500MHz (25MHz * 4 * 5 = 500MHz).
Set QDIV0 = 0 (÷4) for 125MHz output and QDIV1 = 1 (÷5) for
100MHz output. To figure out what pins must pulled up or down
externally with resistors, check the internal pullup or pulldown
resistors on each pin in the pin description table or on the block
diagram. PDIV[1:0] defaults to 00/÷4 and we need 01/÷5. So PDIV1
can be left floating (it has an internal pulldown resistor) and PDIV0
must be driven or pulled up via external pullup resistor to HIGH state.
OE_MLVDS defaults to Logic 1 (active) and this is what we need, so
that pin can be left floating. The FBO_DIV and FBIN dividers default
to the desired values, so their respective control pins can be left
floating (FBO_DIV and FBI_DIV[1:0]). QDIV0 needs to be ÷4, which
is a default value so this pin can be left floating. QDIV1 must be HIGH
for ÷5, so this pin must be pulled high or driven high externally.
OE[1:0] = 01, so OE0 can Float and OE1 must be pulled Low.
• Backplane clock multiplier. Many backplane clocks are relatively
low frequency because of heavy electrical loading. The
ICS8714004I can multiply a low frequency backplane clock (e.g.
25MHz) to an appropriate reference clock frequency for PCIe,
Ethernet, 10G Ethernet: 100MHz, 125MHz, 156.25MHz. The
device can also accept a high frequency local reference
(100MHz or 125MHz, for example) and divide the frequency
down to 25MHz M-LVDS to drive a backplane.
• PCIe frequency translator for PCIe add-in cards. In personal
computers, the PCIe reference clock is 100MHz, but some 2.5G
serdes used in PCI Express require a 125MHz reference. The
ICS8714004I can perform the 100MHz 125MHz and
125MHz 100MHz frequency translation for a PCI Express
add-in card while delivering low dynamic and static phase
offset.
• General purpose, low phase noise Zero Delay Buffer
Configuration Notes and Examples
When configuring the output frequency, the main consideration is
keeping the VCO within its range of 490MHz - 660MHz. The designer
must ensure that the VCO will always be within its allowed range for
the expected input frequency range by using the appropriate choice
of feedback output and input dividers. There are two input modes for
the device. In the first mode, a reference clock is provided to the
CLK/nCLK input and this reference clock is divided by the value of the
PDIV divider (selectable ÷1, ÷4, ÷5, ÷8). In the second mode, a
reference clock is provided to the MLVDS, nMLVDS input pair.
OE_MLVDS determines the input mode. When OE_MLVDS = HIGH
(default), the M-LVDS driver is active and provides an M-LVDS output
to the MLVDS, nMLVDS pins and also the reference to the phase
detector via the PDIV divider. When OE_MLVDS is LOW, the internal
M-LVDS driver is in High Impedance state and the MLVDS, nMLVDS
pin pair becomes an input and the reference clock applied to this
input is applied to the phase detector.
MLVDS, nMLVDS Input Mode
OE_MLVDS = LOW
VCO frequency = MLVDS, nMLVDS freq. * FBI_DIV * FBO_DIV
Output frequency = VCO frequency/QDIVx value = MLVDS,
nMLVDS freq. * FBI_DIV * FBO_DIV/(QDIVx)
Example - backplane: The 8714004I sits on a backplane card and
must multiply a 25MHz reference that comes from the backplane into
one 125MHz reference clock for a gigabit Ethernet serdes and one
100MHz reference clock for a PCI Express serdes.
Solution. Since only two outputs are needed, the two unused outputs
can be disabled. Set OE1:0 = 01b so that only Q0, nQ0 and Q1, nQ1
are switching. Set OE_MLVDS = 0 so the internal M-LVDS driver is in
a High Impedance state, allowing the MLVDS, nMLVDS pins to
function as an input for the 25MHz clock reference. Set FBO_DIV =
4 and FBI_DIV = 5 which makes the VCO run at 500MHz (25MHz *
4 * 5 = 500MHz). Set QDIV0 = 0 (÷4) for 125MHz output and QDIV1
= 1 (÷5) for 100MHz output. To figure out what pins must pulled up or
down externally with resistors, check the internal pullup or pulldown
resistors on each pin in the pin description table or on the block
diagram. PDIV[1:0] defaults to 00/÷4 and we need 01/÷5. So PDIV1
can be left floating (it has an internal pulldown resistor) and PDIV0
must be driven or pulled up via external pullup resistor to HIGH state.
OE_MLVDS defaults to Logic 1 (active) and this is what we need, so
that pin can be left floating. The FBO_DIV and FBIN dividers default
to the desired values, so their respective control pins can be left
MLVDS, nMLVDS Output Mode
OE_MLVDS = HIGH (default)
VCO frequency = CLK/nCLK frequency * FBI_DIV * FBO_DIV/
(PDIV value)
Allowed VCO frequency = 490MHz – 660MHz
Output frequency = VCO frequency/QDIVx value =
CLK/nCLK freq. * FBI_DIV * FBO_DIV/(PDIV*QDIVx)
Example: a frequency synthesizer provides a 125MHz reference

floating (FBO_DIV and FBI_DIV1:0). QDIV0 needs to be ÷4, which
is a default value so this pin can be left floating. QDIV1 must be HIGH

This example shows a case where each card may be dynamically
configured as a master or slave card, hence the need for an
ICS8714004I and ICS841402I on each card. On the master timing
card, the ICS841402I provides a 100MHz reference to the
ICS8714004I CLK, nCLK input. The M-LVDS pair on the
ICS8714004I is configured as an output (OE_MLVDS = Logic 1) and
the internal divider is set to ÷4 to generate 25MHz M-LVDS to the
backplane. The 25MHz clock is also used as a reference to the
FemtoClock PLL which multiplies to a VCO frequency of 500MHz.
Each of the four output pairs may be individually set for ÷4 or ÷5 for
125MHz or 100MHz operation respectively and in this example, one
output pair is set to 100MHz for the FPGA and another output pair is
set to 125MHz for the PCI Express serdes. For the slave card, the
ICS8714004DKI REVISION A MARCH 24, 2014
M-LVDS pair is configured as an input (OE_MLVDS = LOW) and the
FemtoClock PLL multiplies this reference frequency to 500MHz VCO
frequency and the output dividers are set to provide 100MHz to the
FPGA and 125MHz to the PCI Express Serdes as shown.

Wiring the Differential Input to Accept Single-Ended Levels
Figure 2 shows how a differential input can be wired to accept single
ended levels. The reference voltage V1 = VDD/2 is generated by the
bias resistors R1 and R2. The bypass capacitor (C1) is used to help
filter noise on the DC bias. This bias circuit should be located as
close to the input pin as possible. The ratio of R1 and R2 might need
to be adjusted to position the V1 in the center of the input voltage
swing. For example, if the input clock swing is 3.3V and VDD = 3.3V,
R1 and R2 value should be adjusted to set V1 at 1.25V. The values
below are for when both the single ended swing and VDD are at the
same voltage. This configuration requires that the sum of the output
impedance of the driver (Ro) and the series resistance (Rs) equals
the transmission line impedance. In addition, matched termination at
the input will attenuate the signal in half. This can be done in one of
two ways. First, R3 and R4 in parallel should equal the transmission
line impedance. For most 50 applications, R3 and R4 can be 100.
The values of the resistors can be increased to reduce the loading for
slower and weaker LVCMOS driver. When using single-ended
signaling, the noise rejection benefits of differential signaling are
reduced. Even though the differential input can handle full rail
LVCMOS signaling, it is recommended that the amplitude be
reduced. The datasheet specifies a lower differential amplitude,
however this only applies to differential signals. For single-ended
applications, the swing can be larger, however VIL cannot be less
than -0.3V and VIH cannot be more than VDD + 0.3V. Though some
of the recommended components might not be used, the pads
should be placed in the layout. They can be utilized for debugging
purposes. The datasheet specifications are characterized and
guaranteed by using a differential signal.

Overdriving the XTAL Interface
The XTAL_IN input can be overdriven by an LVCMOS driver or by one
side of a differential driver through an AC coupling capacitor. The
XTAL_OUT pin can be left floating. The amplitude of the input signal
should be between 500mV and 1.8V and the slew rate should not be
less than 0.2V/nS. For 3.3V LVCMOS inputs, the amplitude must be
reduced from full swing to at least half the swing in order to prevent
signal interference with the power rail and to reduce internal noise.
Figure 3A shows an example of the interface diagram for a high
speed 3.3V LVCMOS driver. This configuration requires that the sum
of the output impedance of the driver (Ro) and the series resistance
(Rs) equals the transmission line impedance. In addition, matched
termination at the crystal input will attenuate the signal in half. This
VCC
can be done in one of two ways. First, R1 and R2 in parallel should
equal the transmission line impedance. For most 50 applications,
R1 and R2 can be 100. This can also be accomplished by removing
R1 and changing R2 to 50. The values of the resistors can be
increased to reduce the loading for a slower and weaker LVCMOS
driver. Figure 3B shows an example of the interface diagram for an
LVPECL driver. This is a standard LVPECL termination with one side
of the driver feeding the XTAL_IN input. It is recommended that all
components in the schematics be placed in the layout. Though some
components might not be used, they can be utilized for debugging
purposes. The datasheet specifications are characterized and
guaranteed by using a quartz crystal as the input.

The CLK /nCLK accepts LVDS, LVPECL, LVHSTL, HCSL and other
differential signals. Both signals must meet the VPP and VCMR input
requirements. Figures 4A to 4E show interface examples for the
CLK/nCLK input driven by the most common driver types. The input
interfaces suggested here are examples only. Please consult with the
vendor of the driver component to confirm the driver termination
requirements. For example, in Figure 4A, the input termination
applies for IDT open emitter LVHSTL drivers. If you are using an
LVHSTL driver from another vendor, use their termination

VFQFN EPAD Thermal Release Path
In order to maximize both the removal of heat from the package and
the electrical performance, a land pattern must be incorporated on
the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) within the footprint of the package
corresponding to the exposed metal pad or exposed heat slug on the
package, as shown in Figure 5. The solderable area on the PCB, as
defined by the solder mask, should be at least the same size/shape
as the exposed pad/slug area on the package to maximize the
thermal/electrical performance. Sufficient clearance should be
designed on the PCB between the outer edges of the land pattern
and the inner edges of pad pattern for the leads to avoid any shorts.
and dependent upon the package power dissipation as well as
electrical conductivity requirements. Thus, thermal and electrical
analysis and/or testing are recommended to determine the minimum
number needed. Maximum thermal and electrical performance is
achieved when an array of vias is incorporated in the land pattern. It
is recommended to use as many vias connected to ground as
possible. It is also recommended that the via diameter should be 12
to 13mils (0.30 to 0.33mm) with 1oz copper via barrel plating. This is
desirable to avoid any solder wicking inside the via during the
soldering process which may result in voids in solder between the
exposed pad/slug and the thermal land. Precautions should be taken
to eliminate any solder voids between the exposed heat slug and the
land pattern. Note: These recommendations are to be used as a
guideline only. For further information, please refer to the Application
Note on the Surface Mount Assembly of Amkor’s Thermally/
Electrically Enhance Leadframe Base Package, Amkor Technology.
While the land pattern on the PCB provides a means of heat transfer
and electrical grounding from the package to the board through a
solder joint, thermal vias are necessary to effectively conduct from
the surface of the PCB to the ground plane(s). The land pattern must
be connected to ground through these vias. The vias act as “heat
pipes”. The number of vias (i.e. “heat pipes”) are application specific

PCI Express Application Note
PCI Express jitter analysis methodology models the system
response to reference clock jitter. The block diagram below shows the
most frequently used Common Clock Architecture in which a copy of
the reference clock is provided to both ends of the PCI Express Link.
In the jitter analysis, the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) serdes PLLs
are modeled as well as the phase interpolator in the receiver. These
transfer functions are called H1, H2, and H3 respectively. The overall
system transfer function at the receiver is:
Ht s = H3 s H1 s – H2 s
The jitter spectrum seen by the receiver is the result of applying this
system transfer function to the clock spectrum X(s) and is:
Y s = X s H3 s H1 s – H2 s
In order to generate time domain jitter numbers, an inverse Fourier
Transform is performed on X(s)*H3(s) * [H1(s) - H2(s)].
PCIe Gen 2A Magnitude of Transfer Function
PCI Express Common Clock Architecture
For PCI Express Gen 1, one transfer function is defined and the
evaluation is performed over the entire spectrum: DC to Nyquist (e.g
for a 100MHz reference clock: 0Hz – 50MHz) and the jitter result is
reported in peak-peak.
PCIe Gen 2B Magnitude of Transfer Function
For PCI Express Gen 3, one transfer function is defined and the
evaluation is performed over the entire spectrum. The transfer
function parameters are different from Gen 1 and the jitter result is
reported in RMS.
PCIe Gen 1 Magnitude of Transfer Function
For PCI Express Gen 2, two transfer functions are defined with 2
evaluation ranges and the final jitter number is reported in rms. The
two evaluation ranges for PCI Express Gen 2 are 10kHz – 1.5MHz
(Low Band) and 1.5MHz – Nyquist (High Band). The plots show the
individual transfer functions as well as the overall transfer function Ht.

Schematic Example
Figure 7 (next page) shows an example ICS8714004I application
schematic. The schematic example focuses on functional
connections and is not configuration specific. Refer to the pin
description and functional tables in the datasheet to ensure the logic
control inputs are properly set. Input and output terminations shown
are also intended as examples only and may not represent the exact
user configuration.
In order to achieve the best possible filtering, it is highly
recommended that the 0.1uF capacitors be placed on the device side
of the PCB as close to the power pins as possible. This is
represented by the placement of these capacitors in the schematic.
If space is limited, the ferrite bead, 10uf and 0.1uF capacitors
connected to 3.3V can be placed on the opposite side of the PCB. If
space permits, place all filter components on the device side of the
board.
In this particular schematic the MLVDS port is in output mode,
configured by setting OE_MLVDS = 1. Since the zero delay function
is local to the chip, the FBOUT to FBIN connection is a special case
of a point to point PCIe link. The close proximity of these two ports
means that the 33 series resistors are not necessary and the 49.9
termination resistors are to be placed at the FBIN port.
Power supply filter recommendations are a general guideline to be
used for reducing external noise from coupling into the devices. The
filter performance is designed for a wide range of noise frequencies.
This low-pass filter starts to attenuate noise at approximately 10kHz.
If a specific frequency noise component is known, such as switching
power supplies frequencies, it is recommended that component
values be adjusted and if required, additional filtering be added.
Additionally, good general design practices for power plane voltage
stability suggests adding bulk capacitance in the local area of all
devices.
As with any high speed analog circuitry, the power supply pins are
vulnerable to random noise. To achieve optimum jitter performance,
power supply isolation is required. The ICS8714004I provides
separate VDD and VDDA power supplies to isolate any high switching
noise from coupling into the internal PLL.

Power Considerations
This section provides information on power dissipation and junction temperature for the ICS8714004I.
Equations and example calculations are also provided.
1.
Power Dissipation.
The total power dissipation for the ICS8714004I is the sum of the core power plus the analog power plus the output power dissipated due to
the load. The following is the power dissipation for VDD = 3.3V + 5% = 3.465V, which gives worst case results.
NOTE: Please refer to Section 3 for details on calculating output power dissipated due to the load.
•
Power (core)MAX = VDD_MAX * (IDD_MAX +IDDA_MAX} = 3.465V *(210mA + 15mA) = 779.6mW
•
Power (outputs)MAX = 44.5mW/Loaded Output pair
If all outputs are loaded, the total power is 5 * 44.5mW = 222.5mW
Total Power_MAX = 779.6mW + 222.5mW = 1002.1mW
2. Junction Temperature.
Junction temperature, Tj, is the temperature at the junction of the bond wire and bond pad directly affects the reliability of the device. The
maximum recommended junction temperature is 125°C. Limiting the internal transistor junction temperature, Tj, to 125°C ensures that the bond
wire and bond pad temperature remains below 125°C.
The equation for Tj is as follows: Tj = JA * Pd_total + TA
Tj = Junction Temperature
JA = Junction-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance
Pd_total = Total Device Power Dissipation (example calculation is in section 1 above)
TA = Ambient Temperature
In order to calculate junction temperature, the appropriate junction-to-ambient thermal resistance JA must be used. Assuming no air flow and
a multi-layer board, the appropriate value is 32.4°C/W per Table 6 below.
Therefore, Tj for an ambient temperature of 85°C with all outputs switching is:
85°C + 1.002W * 32.4°C/W = 117.5°C. This is below the limit of 125°C.
This calculation is only an example. Tj will obviously vary depending on the number of loaded outputs, supply voltage, air flow and the type of
board (multi-layer).

Figure 8. HCSL Driver Circuit and Termination
HCSL is a current steering output which sources a maximum of 17mA of current per output. To calculate worst case on-chip power dissipation,
use the following equations which assume a 50 load to ground.
The highest power dissipation occurs when VDD_MAX.
Power = (VDD_MAX – VOUT) * IOUT,
since VOUT = IOUT * RL
= (VDD_MAX – IOUT * RL) * IOUT
= (3.465V – 17mA * 50) * 17mA
Total Power Dissipation per output pair = 44.5mW
