Lock detect output. This is a pulse-width modulated output current, with each pulse typically +10 μA. The output produces a pulse with a width in proportion to the phase error seen at the internal phase detector. This pin should be connected via an external parallel capacitor and resistor to ground. The pin voltage will then give an indication of phase lock: When low, the device is phase locked; when high the device has frequent large phase errors and so is not phase locked. The value of the RC components used determines the time and level of consistency required for lock indication. If LOCKB is disabled by configuration the LOCKB output is held low.

ACS8947T JAM PLL
ADVANCED COMMS & SENSING Description FINAL DATASHEET
The device can be fully programmed, without the need for a microprocessor, by hardwiring the configuration input pins CFG_IN[11:0] to ALARM1_CO0, ALARM2_CO1, CFG_OUT2, ALARMC_CO3, VDD and GND as defined by the ACS8947T evaluation software GUI. The PLL has a fully differential external loop filter, allowing the closed loop bandwidth and damping factor to be customized according to target system requirements. The tables below show typical loop filter component values and divider settings for various applications.
The ACS8947T is a highly configurable general purpose Integer-N, low-jitter integrated PLL for signal cleaning, dejittering and frequency translation. The PLL is built around an integrated voltage controlled oscillator(VCO) and can be used in a wide range of applications including OC12 clock cleaning for SONET, SDH, Ethernet, PCI, RapidIO, 3G and wireless systems.

ACS8947T JAM PLL
ADVANCED COMMS & SENSING FINAL DATASHEET
The ACS8947T is available in a small form factor QFN48 package of outer dimensions 7 mm x 7 mm x 0.9 mm. Figure 3 Example of EVB GUI An evaluation board and GUI software for calculating the required loop filter component values and configuration wiring connections, and for hands-on device assessment, are available on request.
Inputs
Clock Inputs
The ACS8947T has two LVPECL differential clock inputs (CLK1N/P and CLK2N/P) and is capable of locking across a wide frequency range of 580 kHz to 180 MHz. If both input clocks are being used, the frequency difference between the signals presented to CLK1N/P and CLK2N/P must be within ±100 ppm. Unused positive differential inputs should be wired to GND and unused negative differential inputs should be wired to VDD. The clock inputs are designed to accept LVDS, LVPECLor CML inputs, given suitable passive resistive and capacitive interface components. On device reset, the configuration protocol presets the internal divider ratios and enables a fast frequency tuning algorithm that temporarily forces PLL bandwidth and locking range to be wide. This enables the PLL to automatically scan and lock to the target reference frequency present on the selected input channel.Once lock is acquired, the PLL bandwidth is reduced and frequency tracking range limited to ±200 ppm. It is therefore important to ensure that the correct input frequency is present on CLK1N/P and CLK2N/P prior to resetting the ACS8947T.
Revision 1.00/September 2007© Semtech Corp.
See PLL Configuration for details on how to configure the PLL dividers. Either clock input can be manually or automatically selected as the current reference, based on the detection of clock activity. Signals AUTO_SEL and SEL_CLK2 shown in Table 5 are used to control the input clock selection. In automatic mode, the selection between CLK1 and CLK2 is non-revertive: i.e. if the PLL is locked on to CLK1 and CLK1 fails and the PLL switches to CLK2, when CLK1 becomes operational again, the PLL does not revert to CLK1.

External feedback
An external feedback mode is available and can be used for greater control of phase discrepancies: for example when using external buffers. In external feedback mode, the reference clock is presented to CLK1N/P and the external feedback signal is presented to CLK2N/P. In this mode, CLK1N/P is the only permitted input.
FINAL
DATASHEET
ALARMC_CO3 is an additional activity alarm that monitors clock inputs to the PFD. This signal is more sensitive than ALARM1_CO0 and ALARM2_CO1, triggering after three missing clock edges to the PFD rather than at complete failure of the input reference clock. Although alarm ALARMC_CO3 has greater sensitivity than the input activity monitor, it may take longer to assert if the input divide ratio is greater than 2. All activity monitor flags are low during normal operation and active high when missing clock cycles are detected.

ALARM SIGNALS: ALARMC_CO3 -- Activity alarm for the currently selected clock (from PFD) ALARM1_CO0 -- Activity alarm for CLK1 ALARM2_CO1 -- Activity alarm for CLK2 F8946D_012SimpStateDiag_01
Figure 4 shows a simplified view of the automatic switching behavior in the presence of activity alarms. Signal ALARMC_CO3 from the PFD is used to disqualify a clock, and signals ALARM1_CO0 and ALARM2_CO1 (representing no activity on input clocks CLK1 and CLK2 respectively), determine whether to select the remaining clock. Switching between CLK1 and CLK2 is nonrevertive. With ALARMC_CO3 providing a view of the currently selected clock that is independent of the ALARM1_CO0 and ALARM2_CO1 signals, source selection behavior can be more complex when these alarm signals disagree. Consequently, to accommodate such behavior, the state machine is necessarily more complex than that shown here: e.g. when a clock signal is disconnected for a very short period, or when an input clock is running at the wrong frequency. For more information, please contact Semtech Sales Support.
In addition to the main input clock inputs, a single differential SYNC input is provided. It provides a resynchronization path to SYNC_OUT that is clocked and synchronized to the rising edge of the OUT1 clock. The SYNC input frequency should be limited to half the OUT1 clock rate, up to a maximum of 40 MHz. For correct operation, the OUT1 output frequency should be at least double that of the SYNC clock.
Input Divider DIVIP
The selected input clock is connected to the PFD via an 8-bit programable divider capable of division ratios from 1 to a maximum 256.
Feedback Divider DIVFB
The feedback path from the internal 2.35 GHz to 2.9 GHz oscillator to the PFD includes a 9-bit programmable divider that is capable of division ratios from 1 to a maximum of 512. Depending on the chosen output frequency, this divider is in series with a fixed divide-by-8 or the odd divider path described below.
Odd Divider DIVODD
The odd divider is capable of division ratios 1, 3, 5, 7, 9,11, 13 and 15. The output of the divider is connected to the output multiplexing and divider stage. If odd number division is used, the frequency adjustment factor applies to all outputs - adjusting all selected output frequencies proportionally. Under some PLL configurations, the odd divider may also be included in the feedback path to the PFD.

Activity Alarms
Input activity monitors ALARM1_CO0 and ALARM2_CO1 flag the occurrence of six or more consecutive missing cycles from inputs CLK1N/P and CLK2N/P. The alarm signals operate on the input reference clock prior to the internal PFD, and use an internal feedback clock from the VCO to determine whether the reference clock has failed.

The internal phase and frequency detector is designed to operate across the full input frequency range of 580 kHz to 180 MHz and includes the ALARMC_CO3 activity alarm.
FINAL
DATASHEET
Refer to PLL Configuration for details on how to calculate the loop filter component values for a given closed loop bandwidth and phase margin. Automatic calculation is available in the the ACS8947T evaluation software GUI.
Voltage Controlled Oscillator
The internal VCO operates across a frequency range of 2.35 GHz to 2.9 GHz. The VCO frequency is divided down to the selected output rate, giving a precise 50/50 balanced mark/space ratio for the output.
Charge Pumps and External Low-Pass Filter
A differential charge pump is used to drive the external loop filter via pins VCN and VCP. For linear operation of the PLL, the differential voltage range is limited to ±1.2 V centered around a typical common mode voltage of 1.25 V. To maintain sensible external component values, the magnitude of the charge pump current (IC) is dependent on the OSC/8 divider ratio as defined in Table 6. Table 6 Relationship of IC and OSC/8 Divider Ratio
IC (μA) 10 40 160 210 OSC/8 Divide By 1 -> 2 3 -> 8 9 -> 24 25 -> 512
Output Multiplexer and Divider
A 5-bit tapped, differential CML divider tree is used in conjunction with the odd divider to generate the required output frequencies. The divider ratios are set according to the frequency list defined by the external configuration wiring and cannot be modified once the device is locked. The device automatically allocates the frequency list to outputs as part of the PLL configuration sequence.
Outputs
Four programmable LVPECL/CML differential outputs are provided via signal pairs OUT[4:1]N/P (pins 11/12, 8/9, 5/6 and 2/3). Interfacing to LVDS is also possible using suitable passive components (see Input and Output Interface Terminations). The frequency assigned to each output is programable between 1.23 MHz and 625 MHz and, during device reset, is set by the frequency map defined by the configuration sequence. Although the theoretical maximum output frequency of the PLL is 725 MHz, the output ports are only guaranteed to meet VOH/VOL to a maximum of 625 MHz. Each differential output has a dedicated power supply pin that should be connected to VDD if the output is required to be active. If an output port is not required, connect the dedicated power pin to ground to disable the differential output.
The closed loop PLL bandwidth is set by two identical sets of passive RC components that connect to the differential charge pump outputs pins VCN and VCP. Figure 5 shows the recommended configuration of the second order loop differential filter. Figure 5 Configuration of Second Order Loop Filter

ACS8947T JAM PLL
ADVANCED COMMS & SENSING Lock Detector FINAL Input Jitter Tolerance DATASHEET
A simple lock detector is incorporated. It combines the plus and minus phase errors output from the PFD so that, if any phase error signal is present, the LOCKB output drives a PWM +10 μA current. The mark/space ratio indicates the current input phase error. By filtering this signal with a basic external RC parallel filter as shown in Figure 6, a signal whose output level indicates PLL phase and frequency lock is obtained. Figure 6 Lock Detector External RC Filter
Jitter tolerance is defined as the maximum amplitude of sinusoidal jitter that can exist on the input reference clock above which the device fails to acquire/maintain lock. For the stand-alone device, the jitter tolerance for an undivided reference (i.e. full rate PFD) is shown in Figure 7. For frequencies below the PLL bandwidth, jitter tolerance is seen to decrease at a rate of -20 dB per decade. For jitter frequencies above the PLL bandwidth, jitter tolerance is limited to 0.9 UI p-p.
Note...If the reference clock is divided, then the jitter tolerance will be improved.
When the ACS8947T follows an ACS8525, the input jitter tolerance is wholly defined by the latter. The system jitter tolerance is dramatically increased due to the extended phase capture range of the digital PLL within the ACS8525. Figure 7 Jitter Tolerance ACS8947T

The filtering components are external so that the time to indicate lock can be optimized for the application. The output indicates both phase and frequency lock. During off-frequency conditions, the LOCKB output is predominately high.

Jitter Filtering
Input jitter is attenuated by the PLL with the frequency cutoff point (Fc), at which jitter is tracked or attenuated, defined by the -3 dB point: i.e. the position of the first pole of the PLL loop filter. The bandwidth is the frequency at which the first pole occurs and is defined by the component value selected for the filter. For a 19.44 MHz input, using a loop filter bandwidth of 2 kHz and damping factor of 1.2 gives: High input jitter attenuation and roll off: - 20 dB/decade from first loop filter pole, (Fc); - 40 dB/decade from 2nd pole (typically 10 x Fc). Jitter peaking is less than 1 dB (dependent on the loop filter components); Typical final output jitter: e.g. 2.8 ps RMS measured over the integration range of 12 kHz to 20 MHz offset from carrier.

Jitter Transfer
Jitter transfer is a ratio of input jitter present on the reference clock to filtered jitter present on the output clock. The ACS8947T jitter transfer characteristic is defined solely by the loop filter bandwidth. Figure 8 is an example showing the measured jitter transfer characteristic on a 19.44 MHz reference clock with a closed loop bandwidth of 2 KHz and a damping factor of 1.2.

FINAL PLL Configuration
DATASHEET
TBIL
On device reset all divider ratios, charge pump settings, lock detector mode and output pad types are set by the Configuration Block, which decodes the wiring connections present on CFG[11:0]. This allows the PLL to be entirely configured without the need for an external microprocessor. The configuration pins CFG[11:0] (device pins 18:25 and 48:45) are hardwired (via VDD, GND, ALARM1_CO0, ALARM2_CO1, CFG_OUT2, or ALARMC_CO3) to produce a unique programming code. On device reset, this code is decoded and used to configure the PLL.

Output Jitter
The output jitter meets all requirements of ITU, Telcordia and ETSI standards for SONET rates up to 622.08 MHz (OC-12/STM-4). See Electrical Specifications for details on the jitter figures across the different output jitter frequency bands relevant to each specification.
Layout Recommendations
It is highly recommended that a stable and filtered 3.3 V power supply is used for the ACS8947T. A separate filtered power and ground plane is recommended, with supply decoupling capacitors of 10 nF and 100 pF utilizing good, high-frequency chip capacitors (0402 or 0603 format surface mount package) on each VDD. For optimum jitter cleaning performance, additional care should be taken over the supply connection to VDDOSC, which should be supplied directly from a 3.3 V LDO or a 4R7/68UF low-pass filter. The wiring connections required for device configuration are calcuated by the ACS8947T Evaluation Software GUI. This program provides a schematic definition for the wired connections to CFG[11:0] and includes a loop filter component calculator. Good differential signal layout on the input and output lines should be used to ensure matched track impedance and phase. Contact Semtech directly for further layout recommendations.

Device Reset
The RESETB pin is active low and requires a minimum reset pulse duration of 100 ms once the power supplies are stable and powered up. When the reset process is triggered, the required PLL settings are decoded from the configuration wiring connections, and the internal control logic waits for the presence of an input signal of approximately the correct frequency. When a suitable input clock signal is detected, the ACS8947T calibrates the VCO using a fast tuning algorithm, and both frequency-lock and phase-lock to the input reference. This calibration routine is run only after a reset condition, so the RESETB pin should be held low until the input frequency is within 200 ppm of nominal.
