GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9517-11 provides a multi-output clock distribution
function with subpicosecond jitter performance, along with an
on-chip PLL and VCO. The on-chip VCO tunes from 2.30 GHz
to 2.65 GHz. Optionally, an external VCO/VCXO of up to
2.4 GHz may be used.
The AD9517-1 emphasizes low jitter and phase noise to
maximize data converter performance and can benefit other
applications with demanding phase noise and jitter requirements.

The AD9517-1 features four LVPECL outputs (in two pairs);
four LVDS outputs (in two pairs); and eight CMOS outputs
(two per LVDS output). The LVPECL outputs operate to
1.6 GHz, the LVDS outputs operate to 800 MHz, and the CMOS
outputs operate to 250 MHz.
Each pair of outputs has dividers that allow both the divide
ratio and coarse delay (or phase) to be set. The range of division
for the LVPECL outputs is 1 to 32. The LVDS/CMOS outputs
allow a range of divisions up to a maximum of 1024.
The AD9517-1 is available in a 48-lead LFCSP and can be
operated from a single 3.3 V supply. An external VCO, which
requires an extended voltage range, can be accommodated
by connecting the charge pump supply (VCP) to 5.5 V. A
separate LVPECL power supply can be from 2.375 V to 3.6 V.
The AD9517-1 is specified for operation over the industrial
range of −40°C to +85°C.

AD9517 is used throughout to refer to all the members of the AD9517
family. However, when AD9517-1 is used, it is referring to that specific
member of the AD9517 family.

This value is incremental. That is, it is in addition to the jitter of the LVDS or CMOS output without the delay. To estimate the total jitter, the LVDS or CMOS output jitter
